A company manufactures 2,000 units of its flagship product in a day. The quality control department takes a random sample of 40

units to test for quality. The product is put through a wear-and-tear test to determine the number of days it could last. If the product has a lifespan of less than 26 days, it is considered defective. The table gives the sample data that a quality control manager collected.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The recommended sample size n for point estimates is:

n = NX / (N + X - 1)

where N is the population size, and X is defined as:

X = Z² p (1 - p) / E²

where Z is the critical value, p is the sample proportion, and E is the margin of error.

Assume a confidence level of level of 95% and a margin of error of 5%.

α = 0.05, Z(α/2) = 1.96

E = 0.05

Of the 40 units tested, 2 had lifespans less than 26 days.  So the proportion is:

p = 2/40 = 0.05

Therefore:

X = (1.96)² (0.05) (1 - 0.05) / (0.05)²

X = 73

Given N = 2000:

n = (2000) (73) / (2000 + 73 - 1)

n = 70.45

Rounding, the recommended sample size is 70.

An account earns simple interest.<br><br> $1800 at 6.5% for 30 months
Vikentia [17]

A = P(1 + rt)

Where:

<span>A = Total Accrued Amount (principal + interest)
P = Principal AmountI = Interest Amount
r = Rate of Interest per year in decimal;
r = R/100
R = Rate of Interest per year as a percent;
 R = r * 100
<span>t = Time Period involved in months or years

</span></span>Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 6.5%/100 = 0.065 per year,
putting time into years for simplicity,
30 months ÷ 12 months/year = 2.5 years,
then, solving our equation

<span>A = 1800(1 + (0.065 × 2.5)) = 2092.5 </span>
A = $ 2,092.50

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest,
from simple interest on a principal of $ 1,800.00
at a rate of 6.5% per year
<span>for 2.5 years (30 months) is $ 2,092.50.</span>

the product of two whole numbers is 36 . what is the greatest possible sum that the number can have?​
ch4aika [34]

Whole numbers are positive numbers without decimals.  First, list all the whole number factors of 36:

1 and 36

2 and 18

3 and 12

4 and 9

6 and 6

Next, see which one of those pairs has the highest sum:

1+36=37

2+18=20

3+12=15

4+9=13

6+6=12

The greatest possible sum the numbers can have is 37.

Hope this helps!!

Point XXX is located at (3, 2)(3,2)left parenthesis, 3, comma, 2, right parenthesis. Point YYY is located at (3, -8)(3,−8)left p
NeX [460]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Point X = (3, 2)

Point Y = (3, - 8)

Distance of point X to Y:

Distance = √(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

X1 = 3 ; y1 = 2 ; x2 = 3 ; y2 = - 8

Distance = √(3 - 3)^2 + (-8 - 2)

Distance = √(0)^2 + (-10)^2

Distance = √0 + 100

Distance = √100

Distance = 10
