x = 2.857

\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\red{Step-by-step\:explanation}}{\orange{:}}}}}

6x - 9 - 2(1 - x) = x + 9 \\ ⇢ 6x - 9 - 2 + 2x = x + 9 \\ ⇢ 8x - x = 9 + 11 \\ ⇢ 7x = 20 \\ ⇢  x =  \frac{20}{7}  \\ ⇢ x = 2.857

{ \bf{ \underbrace{To\:verify:}}}

6 \times 2.857 - 9 - 2(1 - 2.857) = 2.857 + 9 \\ ➪ \: 17.142 - 9 - 2 \times(  - 1.857) = 11.857 \\➪ \: 8.142 + 3.714 = 11.857 \\➪ \: 11.856 = 11.857 \\  ➪ \: 11.86 = 11.86 \\ ➪ L.H.S.=R. H. S

Hence verified.

An automated egg carton loader has a 1% probability of cracking an egg, and a customer will complain if more than one egg per do
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

a) Binomial distribution B(n=12,p=0.01)

b) P=0.007

c) P=0.999924

d) P=0.366

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The distribution of cracked eggs per dozen should be a binomial distribution B(12,0.01), as it can model 12 independent events.

b) To calculate the probability of having a carton of dozen eggs with more than one cracked egg, we will first calculate the probabilities of having zero or one cracked egg.

P(k=0)=\binom{12}{0}p^0(1-p)^{12}=1*1*0.99^{12}=1*0.886=0.886\\\\P(k=1)=\binom{12}{1}p^1(1-p)^{11}=12*0.01*0.99^{11}=12*0.01*0.895=0.107

Then,

P(k>1)=1-(P(k=0)+P(k=1))=1-(0.886+0.107)=1-0.993=0.007

c) In this case, the distribution is B(1200,0.01)

P(k=0)=\binom{1200}{0}p^0(1-p)^{12}=1*1*0.99^{1200}=1* 0.000006 = 0.000006 \\\\ P(k=1)=\binom{1200}{1}p^1(1-p)^{1199}=1200*0.01*0.99^{1199}=1200*0.01* 0.000006 \\\\P(k=1)= 0.00007\\\\\\P(k\leq1)=0.000006+0.000070=0.000076\\\\\\P(k>1)=1-P(k\leq 1)=1-0.000076=0.999924

d) In this case, the distribution is B(100,0.01)

We can calculate this probability as the probability of having 0 cracked eggs in a batch of 100 eggs.

P(k=0)=\binom{100}{0}p^0(1-p)^{100}=0.99^{100}=0.366

True or false m angle 5 is greater than m angle 8​
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see that Angle 5 is slightly greater than 90°, so it is obtuse

Angle 8 is less than 90°, and is acute

Since obtuse angles are larger than acute angles, Angle 5 is greater than Angle 8.

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

I need number 22 PLS AND THANK YOU!
notsponge [240]

Answer:

For any two given points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), the slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Let's take the points (15,3) and (30, 6):

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (6-3)/(30-15)

=3/15

=1/5 =0.2

The slope, in general, means the rate of change of y, relative to x. In the context of this question, the slope tells us that the amount of concrete that can be poured (in yards) is a fifth of the time taken (in minutes).
