Suppose a shipment of 120 electronic components contains 3 defective components. to determine whether the shipment should be​ ac

cepted, a​ quality-control engineer randomly selects 3 of the components and tests them. if 1 or more of the components is​ defective, the shipment is rejected. what is the probability that the shipment is​ rejected?

For this problem, the most accurate is to use combinations


Because the order in which it was selected in the components does not matter to us, we use combinations

Then the combinations are nC_r = \frac{ n! }{r! (n-r)!}

n represents the amount of things you can choose and choose r from them


You need the probability that the 3 selected components at least one are defective.

That is the same as:

(1 - probability that no component of the selection is defective).

The probability that none of the 3 selected components are defective is:

P = \frac{_{117}C_3}{_{120}C_3}


Where _{117}C_3 is the number of ways to select 3 non-defective components from 117 non-defective components and _{120}C_3 is the number of ways to select 3 components from 120.

_{117}C_3 = 260130

_{120}C_3 = 280840


So:

P = \frac{260130}{280840} = 0.927


Finally, the probability that at least one of the selected components is defective is:


P = 1-0.927 = 0.0737

  P = 7.4%

ANSWER

Eva is correct because 13/2 + 3/2 = 8

There is no mistake. Dakota may have thought that there was a mistake because Eva simplified when she got the answer for 4x which is correct but Dakota may have thought that it was incorrect.

Transformations<br>I need help on this worksheet please.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 2

As far as I can see, you got it right. The general transformation for 90 ccw is

(x,y) ===> (-y, x)

What that means is for the x you put in -y changing the sign to the opposite and for the y you put in x and this time you leave the sign alone . The transformation is shown in the left hand diagram.

The two tables are shown below.

Original

  • (1,4)
  • (1,2)
  • (3,2)
  • (3,5)

The transformed table is

  • (-4,1)
  • (-2,1)
  • (-2,3)
  • (-5,3)
  • (-4,1)    This is just to let the program know to close the figure For some reason this did not have lines and if I delete it and put the lines in, I won't be able to upload the new diagram.

===========

Four

This one transforms from (x,y) to (-x,-y) which means where you see an x, you put a - x and where you see a y, you put a minus y. It is the middle frame.

Original

  • (-4,3)
  • (0,3)
  • (-2,0)
  • (-4,3)  Here again, this is just to close the figure.

The transformed figure in red I think is

  • (4,-3)
  • (0,-3
  • (2,0)
  • (4,-3) And this closes the figure as well.

==========

Six

The diagram is on the right

Reflection about the y axis. Here the transformation is (x,y) ====> (-x,y) notice the ys don't change.

  • (-3,0)
  • (-5,-2)
  • (-1,-2)

There is no closure.

Reflection

  • (3,0)
  • (5,-2)
  • (1,-2)
