Answer:

0.0177 = 1.77% probability that the first defect is caused by the seventh component tested.

The expected number of components tested before a defective component is found is 50, with a variance of 0.0208.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the probability of a defective computer component is 0.02. Components are randomly selected. Find the probability that the first defect is caused by the seventh component tested.

First six not defective, each with 0.98 probability.

7th defective, with 0.02 probability. So

p = (0.98)^6*0.02 = 0.0177

0.0177 = 1.77% probability that the first defect is caused by the seventh component tested.

Find the expected number and variance of the number of components tested before a defective component is found.

Inverse binomial distribution, with p = 0.02

Expected number before 1 defective(n = 1). So

E = \frac{n}{p} = \frac{1}{0.02} = 50

Variance is:

V = \frac{np}{(1-p)^2} = \frac{0.02}{(1-0.02)^2} = 0.0208

The expected number of components tested before a defective component is found is 50, with a variance of 0.0208.

The ratio of the lengths of corresponding parts in two similar solids is 5:1,
vlabodo [156]
The ratio of the surface areas of two similar solids can be computed by squaring the given ratio of the corresponding sides. For this given,
                                r = (5:1)^1
                               r = 25:1

Thus, the ratio of the surface areas of the similar solids is 25:1.

Find the surface area of the cylinder give your answer in terms of pi. The radius is 4mm and the height is 5mm
Komok [63]
The surface area of a cylinder is the area of the bases plus the area of the side, or SA = 2*A₁ + A₂

Since the area of a circle is \pi r^{2},
SA = 2*(\pi r^{2}) + A₂

Since the area of the side is height * the circumference of the circle or A₂ = h * 2 \pi r, then SA must be;

SA = 2* \pi (r ^{2} )+h*2 \pi r
SA = 2* \pi (4 ^{2} )+5*2 \pi (4)
SA = 32* \pi+80 \pi
SA ≈ <span>351.858377202</span>
