The correct answer is 10/15, simplified to 2/3.
Answer:
0.0025 = 0.25% probability that both are defective
Step-by-step explanation:
For each item, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are defective, or they are not. Items are independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

In which
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

And p is the probability of X happening.
5 percent of these are defective.
This means that 
If two items are randomly selected as they come off the production line, what is the probability that both are defective
This is P(X = 2) when n = 2. So


0.0025 = 0.25% probability that both are defective
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
7x2=14, 14+2=16, 16 is not 0.

20-5= 15
15 × 20,000 = 300,000
Ok It depends upon what the order of the terms might be
If we consider that the positive mixed number is the first term and the negative mixed number is the second term and we consider "difference" to be subtraction.....then the result is positive
For example
(3 + 1/2) - [ -(1 + 1/2)] =
(3 +1/2) + (1 + 1/2) = 5 since subtracting a negative results in a positve
But....if we had the reverse order with the same operation, we would have
-(1 + 1/2) - (3 + 1/2) and the result is - 5
Hence.......I would go with "sometimes"
