<h3>Answer: No, they are not similar.</h3>

Technically, we don't have enough info so it could go either way.

==========================================================

Explanation:

We can see that the sides are proportional to each other, but we don't know anything about the angles. We need to know if the angles are the same. If they are, then the hexagons are similar. If the angles are different, then the figures are not similar.

Right now we simply don't have enough info. So they could be similar, or they may not be. The best answer (in my opinion) is "not enough info". However, your teacher likely wants you to pick one side or the other. We can't pick "similar" so it's best to go with "not similar" until more info comes along the way.

manufacturing company produces digital cameras and claim that their products maybe 3% defective. A video company, when purchasin

alexdok [17]

Answer:

P(X>17) = 0.979

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that a camera is defective, p = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03

20 cameras were randomly selected.i.e sample size, n = 20

Probability that a camera is working, q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.03 = 0.97

Probability that more than 17 cameras are working P ( X > 17)

This is a binomial distribution P(X = r) $nCr q^{r} p^{n-r}$

$nCr = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

P(X>17) = P(X=18) + P(X=19) + P(X=20)

P(X=18) = $20C18 * 0.97^{18} * 0.03^{20-18}$

P(X=18) = $20C18 * 0.97^{18} * 0.03^{2}$

P(X=18) = 0.0988

P(X=19) = $20C19 * 0.97^{19} * 0.03^{20-19}$

P(X=19) = $20C19 * 0.97^{19} * 0.03^{1}$

P(X=19) = 0.3364

P(X=20) = $20C20 * 0.97^{20} * 0.03^{20-20}$

P(X=20) = $20C20 * 0.97^{20} * 0.03^{0}$

P(X=20) = 0.5438

P(X>17) = 0.0988 + 0.3364 + 0.5438

P(X>17) = 0.979

The probability that there are more than 17 working cameras should be 0.979 for the company to accept the whole batch

What is an interval scale and what is it used for?

koban [17]

An interval scale has measurements where the difference between values is meaningful. For example, the year 0 doesn’t imply that time didn’t exist. And similarly, a temperature of zero doesn’t mean that temperature doesn’t exist at that point. Arbitrary zeros (and the inability to calculate ratios because of it) are one reason why the ratio scale — which does have meaningful zeros — is sometimes preferred.
