Answer:

0.419

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, we shall make use of Bernoulli approximation of Binomial distribution

if 20% are defective, then 80% are not defective

Probability of selecting a defective fuse is 20/100 = 0.2

Probability of selecting a non defective one is 0.8

Probability of at least 1 being defective is = 1 - Probability of none being defective

Mathematically that will be;

0.8^8 = 0.168

The above is probability of none defective

So the probability of at least one will be

1 - 0.168 = 0.832

Probability of not more than 1 means;

Probability of none + probability of 1 being defective

We already have probability of none above

Probability of 1 being defective means 8 will be non defective

The probability in this case is;

8 C 1 0.2^1 0.8^7

= 8 * 0.2 * 0.8^7 = 0.336

Add this to the probability of none = 0.336 + 0.168 = 0.504

So the probability that we want to calculate from the question will be;

Probability of at least one defective * probability of not more than one defective

= 0.832 * 0.504 = 0.419

Need help with VOCAB!!! Please make sure it's correct
mash [69]

Hey there!

I believe your answer would be a transformation, and not a translation.

A transformation is an operation that moves, flips, or otherwise changes a figure to create a new figure.

Hope this helps!

Have a wonderful day! :)

Which graph could represent the amount of green beans when selling at a unit rate of G dollars per pound?
hammer [34]

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

The function that tells you the number of dollars you spend on a given number of pounds creates graphs with the coordinates (pounds, dollars).

If you want 1 pound to correspond to G dollars, then a point on the graph will be ...

  (1, G)

1. From the statement select the related given statement.
solong [7]

1. Line l; point P not on l.( Take a line I and mark point P outside it or on the line.So from point P there are infinite number of lines out of which only one line is parallel to line I. Suppose you are taking point P on line I, from that point P also infinite number of lines can be drawn but only one line will be coincident or parallel to line I.

2. Plane R is parallel to plane S; Plane T cuts planes R and S.(Imagine you are sitting inside a room ,consider two walls opposite to each other as two planes R and S and floor on which you are sitting as third plane T ,so R and S are parallel and plane T is cutting them so in this case their lines of intersect .But this is not possible in each and every case, suppose R and S planes are parallel to each other and Plane T cuts them like two faces of a building and third plane T is stairs or suppose it is in slanting position i.e not parallel to R and S so in this case also lines of intersection  will be parallel.

3. △ABC with midpoints M and N.( As you know if we take a triangle ABC ,the mid points of sides AB and AC being M and N, so the line joining the mid point of two sides of a triangle is parallel to third side and is half of it.

4.Point B is between points A and C.( Take a line segment AC. Mark any point B anywhere on the line segment AC. Three possibilities arises

(i) AB > BC (ii) AB < BC  (iii) AB = BC

Since A, B,C are collinear .So in each case  AB + BC =AC
