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

Find all x-intercepts of the function. Express your answer as a list of x-values. f(x)=x^5−3x^3
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the x-intercept, we set y equal to zero and solve for x. Similarly, to determine the y-intercept, we set x equal to zero and solve for y.

To find the x-intercept, set y = 0 \displaystyle y=0 y=0.

To find the y-intercept, set x = 0 \displaystyle x=0 x=0.

−4x−2 + 3y0 if x = 2 and y = 5
Kazeer [188]

Hey there!

-4x^-2 + 3y^0

= -4(2)^-2 + 3(5)^0

= -4(1/4) + 3(5)^0

= -1 + 3(5^0)

= -1 + 3(1)

= -1 + 3

= 2

Therefore, the answer should be: 2

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

A Ferris wheel has a diameter of 42 feet. It rotates 3 times per minite. Approximately how far will a passenger travel during a
UkoKoshka [18]
Hello!

First of all we will need to find the circumference, as it is the distance around the wheel. We will use 3.14 for pi.

42(3.14)=131.88

Now we multiply by three to see how far they go in a minute.

131.88(3)=395.64

Now we multiply by 5 to see five minutes.

395.64(5)=1974.2

A passenger will travel approximately 1978.2 feet in 5 minutes.

I hope this helps!
