Answer:

0.29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

n : ___ 0 _____ 1 ____ 2 ____ 3 ____ 4

P(n) : 0.82___ 0.11 ___0.04 _0.02 ___0.01

The expected number of defect in a shipment can be obtained using the expected value formula :

Expected value, E(X) = Σx*p(x)

Σx*p(x) = (0*0.82) + (1*0.11) + (2*0.04) + (3*0.02) + (4*0.01)

E(X) = 0.29

Hence, the expected number of defect in shipment is 0.29

ad-work [718]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

12=2⋅2⋅3

15=3⋅5

We see that they both share 3 is their LCM.

We divide each number by their LCM.

123⇒4

153⇒5

We multiply these two quotients and the LCM to get our final answer:

3⋅4⋅5=60

That is our answer!

Hope this helped! :)

If m < A = 4x + 12 and x = 15, is < A acute, obtuse, or right? Justify your answer.
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A = 4x + 12 = 4(15) + 12 = 72°.

Acute is for angles that are less than 90°.

Obtuse is for angles that are between 90° and 180°, not inclusive.

Right is for angles that are 90°

Hence the answer is acute.
