A quality-control engineer samples 100 items manufactured by a certain process, and finds that 15 of them are defective. True or

False:
a) The probability that an item produced by this process is defective is 0.15.
b) The probability that an item produced by this process is defective is likely to be close to 0.15, but not exactly equal to 0.15.

Answer: b) The probability that an item produced by this process is defective is likely to be close to 0.15, but not exactly equal to 0.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of samples = 100

Number of defective samples = 15

Proportion =number defective samples / total samples

P = 15 / 100 = 0.15

Hence, the probability that an item produces is defective is 0.15.

However, due to sampling Variations, the probability will be corrected for these variations. Hence, probability that an item produced by this process is defective is likely to be close to 0.15, but not exactly equal to 0.15.

When a constant force acts upon an object, the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. When a certain constan
vitfil [10]

Answer:

a = 6m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

When mass = 4kg; Acceleration = 15m/s²

Required

Determine the acceleration when mass = 10kg, provided force is constant;

Represent mass with m and acceleration with a

The question says there's an inverse variation between acceleration and mass; This is represented as thus;

a\ \alpha\ \frac{1}{m}

Convert variation to equality

a = \frac{F}{m}; Where F is the constant of variation (Force)

Make F the subject of formula;

F = ma

When mass = 4kg; Acceleration = 15m/s²

F = 4 * 15

F = 60N

When mass = 10kg; Substitute 60 for Force

F = ma

60 = 10 * a

60 = 10a

Divide both sides by 10

\frac{60}{10} = \frac{10a}{10}

a = 6m/s^2

<em>Hence, the acceleration is </em>a = 6m/s^2<em />

Answer:

The average rate of change from 3 to 6 storms = 0.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of Storms = N

And Predicted Gas Price = P

it is required to find the average rate of change from 3 to 6 storms.

At N = 3 ⇒ P = $2.44

At N = 6 ⇒ P = $2.56

So, the average rate of change = \frac{2.56-2.44}{6-3}=\frac{0.12}{3}=0.04

If 1 cm represents 30 km on a map and colorado is shown by a 20cm by 15 cm rectangle on the map, what is the approximate actual
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

20*30km = 600km

15*30km = 450km

600km * 450km = 270000 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming 1cm --- 30km causes that 2cm --- 60km, 3cm --- 90km, 4cm --- 120km etc. Notice that number of km's is 30 times greater than the number of cm's on a map

using this logic, you calculate both real dimensions of Colorado by multiplying 20*30 = 600 km and 15*30 = 450km

Then we use a formula of an area of a rectangle A=a\cdot b assuming a=600km, \ b=450km and get A=600\cdot 450=270000km^2 which is an actual area of Colorado
