7. A machine produces memory sticks of varying lengths, distributed uniformly between 3mm and 13 mm. Memory sticks longer than 1

0 mm do not meet the design criteria and must be scrapped. Calculate the proportion of memory sticks that will be scrapped, which is the probability that memory stickers longer than 10 mm will be scrapped.

Answer:

The proportion of memory sticks that will be scrapped is 0.3 = 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniform probability distribution:

An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.  

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}

The probability of finding a value between c and d is:

P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}

The probability of finding a value above x is:

P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}

Distributed uniformly between 3mm and 13 mm.

This means that a = 3, b = 13

Calculate the proportion of memory sticks that will be scrapped:

P(X > 10) = \frac{13 - 10}{13 - 3} = \frac{3}{10} = 0.3

The proportion of memory sticks that will be scrapped is 0.3 = 30%.

John’s teacher gave him the following system of equations and asked him to find the point of intersection. 3x + 2 = y 2x – 3= y
Galina-37 [17]

1) to this case you must match both equations

3x+2 = 2x-3 ⇒3x-2x = -3-2⇒x= -5

now the value of x  substitute it in the any of two equations, y = 3(-5)+2 = -13

and the other equation is the same value

y = 2(-5)-3 = -13

the point is ( -5,-13)

Loni needs between 3.5 and 7.2 volts of energy, not inclusive, to make an experiment work correctly. Write a compound inequality
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

<em>The compound inequality that shows the voltage amount the necessary range is  3.5</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Loni needs between 3.5 and 7.2 volts of energy, not inclusive, to make an experiment work correctly.

That means, <u>the voltage amount should be either greater than 3.5 volts or less than 7.2 volts</u>.

Suppose, the amount of voltage is V volts to make the experiment work correctly.

Now, Voltage amount is greater than 3.5 volts means:  V>3.5 or 3.5

and voltage amount is less than 7.2 volts means:  V

Thus, the compound inequality by combining the above two inequalities will be:   3.5
