Start with an equation.
Nine less... so -9
3 times a number = 3x
Greater than 40 is >40
So put together is 3x-9>40
When solving I imaging the greater than sign as an equal sign. Less confusing.
3x-9=40
3x=49
x>49/3
Answer:
a) The probability that this whole shipment will be accepted is 30%.
b) Many of the shipments with this rate of defective aspirin tablets will be rejected.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a shipment of 3000 aspirin tablets, with a 5% rate of defects.
We select a sample of size 48 and test for defectives.
If more than one aspirin is defective, the batch is rejected.
The amount of defective aspirin tablets X can be modeled as a binomial distribution random variable, with p=0.55 and n=48
We have to calculate the probabilities that X is equal or less than 1: P(X≤1).
The probability from 1.5 ≤ x ≤ 3 can be calculated by dividing the Area from x=1.5 to x=3 by the total Area of the distribution.
The given distribution is rectangular shaped, so its Area will be = Length x Width = 1 x 3 = 3 square units
From x = 1.5 to x = 3, the length is 1.5 and width is 1. So the area between these two intervals = 1.5 square units.
Thus, <span>P(1.5 ≤ X ≤ 3) = 1.5/3 = 0.5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: We have to add how much time it took him to do all of his homework. To do this, we have to add 2/3 and 3/5.
First, we have to find a LCM between 3 and 5.
The LCM between those numbers are 15.
Next we find out what number to multiply 3 by to get 15, we multiply it by 5.
2 * 5 = 10
3 * 5 = 15
Next we find out what number to multiply 5 by to get 15, we multiply it by 3.
3 * 3 = 9
5 * 3 = 15
10/15+9/15=19/15
We are left off with 1 4/15
So it took him 1 hour and 4/15 minutes to do his homework.
If a(n) = (39n^4 -506n^3 + 2341n^2 - 4610n + 3416) / 8 then
<span>a(1) = 85 </span>
<span>a(2) = 17 </span>
<span>a(3) = 19 </span>
<span>a(4) = 4 </span>
<span>a(5) = 2</span>
