Twenty percent of all telephones of a certain type are submitted for service while under warranty. Of these, 70% can be repaired

, whereas the other 30% must be replaced with new units. If a company purchases ten of these telephones, what is the probability that exactly two will end up being replaced under warranty?

Answer:

The required probability is 0.09875

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

the probability of repairing the telephones = 0.70

the probability of the replaced = 0.30

Suppose we consider  Mto denotes the telephone that is submitted for service while under warranty and must be replaced.

Then;

p = P(S) = P(replaced | submitted) P(submitted)

= 0.30 × 0.20

= 0.06

Now, the probability that exactly two will end up being replaced under warranty given that it assumes  a binomial distribution where n = 10 and p = 0.06

P(X=2)=\bigg (^{10}_{2}\bigg) 0.06^2(1-0.06)^{10-2}

P(X=2)=\dfrac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}\times  0.06^2\times (0.94)^{8}

\mathbf{P(X=2)=0.09875}

A certain book is for sale in both Belize and Brazil. In Belize, it sells for 80.39 Belize dollars. In Brazil, it sells for 63.6
bixtya [17]
A book is sold in Belize for 80.39 Belize dollars.
In Brazil, it sells for 63.65 Brazilian reals.

The exchange rate of US Dollars to Belize Dollars is 1:1.9246
<span>The exchange rate of US Dollars to Brazilian Real is 1:1.7880
</span>
If we convert the two into dollars,
Belize Dollars 
1 : 1.9246 = X : <span>80.39 
1.9246X = 80.39
X = $ 41.77 

</span>Brazilian Real
1 : 1.7880 = X : <span>63.65 </span><span> 
</span>1.7880X = <span>63.65 </span><span>
X = $ 35.60
</span>
Difference = $ 41.77 - $ 35.60
Difference = $ 6.17

So, in Belize the book is more expensive by $ 6.17

Given the function h(x) = 3(5)x, section a is from x = 0 to x = 1 and section b is from x = 2 to x = 3. part
katrin2010 [14]
A.
h(x)=3*5ˣ; h(0)=3, h(1)=15: rate of change is (15-3)/1=12 (1st section)
h(2)=3*25=75, h(3)=3*125=375: rate of change (375-75)/1=300 (2nd section)
b.
So the second section is 300/12=25 times greater than the first section.
The function is exponential and as x gets larger the difference between consecutive values of h(x) increases dramatically so the rate of change increases.

Using the given formula :

I = P × R × T

I = 80000 × 15/100 × 4

I = $48000

He saves = 48000 +80000 = $128000

Stacey is making candles to sell at the craft fair. She has 5 pounds of wax to make the candles. She needs 18 pound of wax for 1
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how much wax you will need, you will first need to decide on ... (ounces needed) ÷ 16 (ounces in 1 pound) = (pounds of wax needed). For example, let's say you wanted to make 25 candles in our 8 oz Candle Tins ... 5 x 25 = 125 oz of wax ... It's always better to have a little wax left over than to not have enough!
