A certain type of flashlight requires two type-D batteries, and the flashlight will work only if both its batteries have accepta

ble voltages. Suppose that 90% of all batteries from a certain supplier have acceptable voltages. Among twenty randomly selected flashlights, what is the probability that at least nineteen will work? What assumptions did you make in the course of answering the question posed? a. we have assumed here that the batteries' voltage levels are independent. b. we have assumed here that the batteries' voltage levels are dependent.

Answer:

a) 0.064

b) 0.002

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Assuming that  the batteries' voltage levels are independent

Probability = 0.8 * 0.8 = 0.64

b) batteries' voltage levels are dependent

20/19 (0.064)^19 *0.036  + 20/20 (0.064)^20 *0.036^0

= 0.002

What value of x is in the solution set of 3(x – 4) > 5x + 2?
bonufazy [111]

We have to simplify and get the value of x from this inequality given:

Given inequality,

3(x - 4) > 5x + 2

Now let's simplify by using distributive property,

3x - 12 > 5x + 2

We need to find x, so let's isolate x to the letter side of the inequality for calculation at ease.

3x - 12 - 5x  - 2 > 0

- 2x - 14 > 0

Now, dividing -2 from both sides.

Note : As we are dividing a negative number from both sides, the sign of the inequality will be <u>reversed</u>.

\dfrac{ - 2x - 14}{ - 2}  >  \dfrac{0}{ - 2}

x + 7 < 0

Now subtracting -7 from both sides,

x + 7 - 7 < 0 - 7

x <  - 7

Or, Interval of the equal (- \infin, -7 ]
