Answer:

a) P=0.0225

b) P=0.057375

Step-by-step explanation:

From exercise we have that  15​% of items produced are defective, we conclude that  probabiity:

P=15/100

P=0.15

a)  We calculate the probabiity  that two items are​ defective:

P= 0.15 · 0.15

P=0.0225

b)  We calculate the probabiity  that  two  of  three items are​ defective:

P={3}_C_{2} · 0.85 · 0.15 · 0.15

P=\frac{3!}{2!(3-2)!} · 0.019125

P=3 · 0.019125

P=0.057375

Determine whether the graph table or equation represents a linear or nonlinear function explain
Anna [14]
<h3>Answer: Linear</h3>

Each time x goes up by 3, y goes up by 2. The rate of change is constant.

slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = 2/3

y intercept = 6 since this is where x = 0

The equation of this line is y = (2/3)x+6

Convert 3,200,000 to scientific notation.
mixas84 [53]
The scientific notation of 3,200,000 is 3.2 * 10^6.
The number must be between 1 and 10, and we move the decimal 6 places to the left to get between 1 and 10.
