A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers. Find the probability that for any particular 10 containers the numb

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

a) $P(X = 1) = 0.38742$

b) $P(X = 3) = 0.05740$

c) $P(X = 9) = 0.00000$

d) $P(X \geq 5) = 0.00163$

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is undefilled, or it is not. This means that we can solve this problem using the binomial probability distribution.

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 combinatios 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.

In this problem

There are 10 containers, so $n = 10$ .

A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers, so $p = 0.1$ .

a) This is P(X = 1)

$P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

b) This is P(X = 3)

$P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{7} = 0.05740$

c) This is P(X = 9)

$P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.1)^{9}.(0.9)^{1} = 0.00000$

d) This is $P(X \geq 5)$ .

Either the number is lesser than five, or it is five or larger. The sum of the probabilities of each event is decimal 1. So:

$P(X < 5) + P(X \geq 5) = 1$

$P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5)$

In which

$P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)$

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{10} = 0.34868$

$P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

$P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{8} = 0.1937$

$P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{7} = 0.05740$

$P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

$P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.34868 + 0.38742 + 0.19371 + 0.05740 + 0.01116 = 0.99837$

Finally

$P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5) = 1 - 0.99837 = 0.00163$

Nicholas drew a triangle with 45, 35, and 100 degree angles. Is there another triangle with the same three angles but different

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Yes, there are infinite triangles with the same three angles but different side lengths

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

therefore

There are infinite triangles with the same three angles but different side lengths

A 99% confidence interval for the mean μ of a population is computed from a random sample and found to be 6 ± 3. We may conclude

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

A. there is a 99% probability that μ is between 3 and 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

From a random sample, we build a confidence interval, with a confidence level of x%.

The interpretation is that we are x% sure that the interval contains the true mean of the population.

In this problem:

99% confidence interval.

6 ± 3.

So between 6-3 = 3 and 6 + 3 = 9.

So we are 99% sure that the true population mean is between 3 and 9.

So the correct answer is:

A. there is a 99% probability that μ is between 3 and 9.
