Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A line perpendicular to the y-axis, which is vertical, is a line that is horizontal. Perfectly horizontal lines always have a slope of 0. Thus, the equation of the line perpendicular to the one given and passing through the given point (5, 1) is

y - 1 = 0(x - 5) and

y - 1 = 0x - 0 and

y - 1 = 0 so

y = 1 is the equation you're looking for.

The probability that a lab specimen contains high levels of contamination is 0.10. A group of 4 independent samples are checked.

galben [10]

Answer:

a) 0.6561

b) 0.2916

c) 0.3439

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

Let us treat high level of contamination as our success.

p = P(High level of contamination) = P(success) = 0.10

n = 4

The, by binomial distribution:

$P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}\\\text{where x is the number of success}$

a) P(No high level of contamination)

We put x = 0, in the formula.

$P(X=0) = \binom{4}{0}.(0.10)^0.(1-0.10)^{4} =0.6561$

Probability that no lab specimen contain high level of contamination is 0.6561

b) P(Exactly one high level of contamination)

We put x = 1, in the formula.

$P(X=1) = \binom{4}{1}.(0.10)^1.(1-0.10)^{3} =0.2916$

Probability that no lab specimen contain high level of contamination is 0.6561

c) P(At least one contains high level of contamination)

$p(x \geq 1) = 1 - p( x = 0) = 1 - 0.6561 = 0.3439$

Probability that at least 1 lab specimen contain high level of contamination is 0.3439

Write the inequality:<br><br> Two less than twice a number is less than a half.

Art [367]

Answer:

2x-2<1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

when the problem says "two less than" it means we are subtracting 2 from something, in this case, that something is "twice a number" as the problem states. So we would write 2x where x is a variable that represents any number so we have 2x-2<1/2.
