Answer:
probability that both passes a defective item is 0.8742
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
probability that the first inspector misses is Pr( 1st misses)= 0.06
therefore the probability he does not miss is
Pr(1st passes)= 1 - Pr( 1st misses) = 1 - 0.06 = 0.94
probability that the second misses is Pr( 2nd misses) = 0.07
therefore probability that 2nd does not miss is
Pr( 2nd passes) = 1- Pr( 2nd misses) = 0.93
probability that both passes a defective item is Pr(1st passes)*Pr( 2nd passes)
= 0.93*0.94 = 0.8742
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Silicon is a member of Group 14 (IVA) in the periodic table. The periodic table is a chart that shows how chemical elements are related to one another. Silicon is also part of the the carbon family. Other carbon family elements include carbon, germanium, tin, and lead. Silicon is a metalloid, one of only a very few elements that have characteristics of both metals and non-metals.
Silicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust, exceeded only by oxygen. Many rocks and minerals contain silicon. Examples include sand, quartz, clays, flint, amethyst, opal, mica, feldspar, garnet, tourmaline, asbestos, talc, zircon, emerald, and aquamarine. Silicon never occurs as a free element. It is always combined with one or more other elements as a compound.By the early 1800s, silicon was recognized as an element. But chemists had serious problems preparing pure silicon because it bonds (attaches) tightly to oxygen. It took chemists many years to find out how to separate silicon from oxygen. That task was finally accomplished in 1823 by Swedish chemist Jons Jakob Berzelius (1779-1848).
Silicon's most important application is in electronic equipment. Silicon is one of the best materials from which to make transistors and computer chips. The total weight of silicon used for this purpose is relatively small. Much larger amounts are used, for example, to make metal alloys. An alloy is made by melting and mixing two or more metals. The mixture has properties different from those of the individual metals.
