7.109) The leading brand of dishwasher detergent has a 30% market share. A sample of 25 dishwasher detergent customers was taken

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

0.9021 = 90.21% probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand

Step-by-step explanation:

For each customer, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they choose the leading brand, or they do not. The probability of a customer choosing the leading brand is independent of any other customer, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

The leading brand of dishwasher detergent has a 30% market share.

This means that $p = 0.3$

A sample of 25 dishwasher detergent customers was taken.

This means that $n = 25$

a. What is the probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand?

This is:

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{25,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{25} = 0.0001$

$P(X = 1) = C_{25,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{24} = 0.0014$

$P(X = 2) = C_{25,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{23} = 0.0074$

$P(X = 3) = C_{25,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{22} = 0.0243$

$P(X = 4) = C_{25,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{21} = 0.0572$

$P(X = 5) = C_{25,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{20} = 0.1030$

$P(X = 6) = C_{25,6}.(0.3)^{6}.(0.7)^{19} = 0.1472$

$P(X = 7) = C_{25,7}.(0.3)^{7}.(0.7)^{18} = 0.1712$

$P(X = 8) = C_{25,8}.(0.3)^{8}.(0.7)^{17} = 0.1651$

$P(X = 9) = C_{25,9}.(0.3)^{9}.(0.7)^{16} = 0.1336$

$P(X = 10) = C_{25,10}.(0.3)^{10}.(0.7)^{15} = 0.0916$

Then

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0001 + 0.0014 + 0.0074 + 0.0243 + 0.0572 + 0.1030 + 0.1472 + 0.1712 + 0.1651 + 0.1336 + 0.0916 = 0.9021$

0.9021 = 90.21% probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand

Colt1911 [192]

Answer: the area of the finished tarp is 131872 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Search strip of tarp is rectangular. The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length × width

An order was placed for a rectangular tarp that will be made up of 8 strips of fabric. Each strip is 26 inches wide and 634 feet long. The area of each strip of tarp is

Area = 26 × 634 = 16484 square inches

Therefore, the area of the finished tarp would be

8 × 16484 = 131872 square inches

What is 30=-5(6n+6) im confused

Flauer [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

30 = -5(6n + 6)...distribute the 5 thru the parenthesis

30 = -30n - 30....add 30 to both sides

30 + 30 = -30n

60 = -30n....divide both sides by -30

-60/30 = n

-2 = n <===
