: A personal computer manufacturer buys 36% of its chips from Japan and the rest from the United St...
meriva

Answer: 0.9862

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability that the chips belongs to Japan: P(J)= 0.36

The probability that the chips belongs to United States : P(U)= 1-0.36=0.64

The proportion of Japanese chips are defective : P(D|J)=0.017

The proportion of American chips are defective : P(D|U)=0.012

Using law of total probability , we have

P(D)=P(D|J)\times P(J)+P(D|U)\times P(U)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P(D)=0.017\times0.36+0.012\times0.64=0.0138

Thus , the probability that chip is defective = 0.0138

Then , the probability that a chip is defect-free=1-0.0138=0.9862

Assume you have noted the following prices for books and the number of pages that each book contains. Book Pages (x) Price (y) A
belka [17]

Answer:

a) y=0.00991 x +1.042  

b) r^2 = 0.7503^2 = 0.563

c) r=\frac{7(30095)-(4210)(49)}{\sqrt{[7(2595100) -(4210)^2][7(354) -(49)^2]}}=0.7503  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

x: 500, 700, 750, 590 , 540, 650, 480

y: 7.00, 7.50 , 9.00, 6.5, 7.50 , 7.0, 4.50

Part a

We want to create a linear model like this :

y = mx +b

Wehre

m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}  

And:  

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}  

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}  

With these we can find the sums:  

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=2595100-\frac{4210^2}{7}=63085.714  

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i){n}}=30095-\frac{4210*49}{7}=625  

And the slope would be:  

m=\frac{625}{63085.714}=0.00991  

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:  

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{4210}{7}=601.429  

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{49}{7}=7  

And we can find the intercept using this:  

b=\bar y -m \bar x=7-(0.00991*601.429)=1.042  

And the line would be:

y=0.00991 x +1.042  

Part b

The correlation coefficient is given by:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

For our case we have this:

n=7 \sum x = 4210, \sum y = 49, \sum xy = 30095, \sum x^2 =2595100, \sum y^2 =354  

r=\frac{7(30095)-(4210)(49)}{\sqrt{[7(2595100) -(4210)^2][7(354) -(49)^2]}}=0.7503  

The determination coefficient is given by:

r^2 = 0.7503^2 = 0.563

Part c

r=\frac{7(30095)-(4210)(49)}{\sqrt{[7(2595100) -(4210)^2][7(354) -(49)^2]}}=0.7503

Round 9.77 to the nearest tenth
djyliett [7]
9.77 to the nearest tenths

first, find the number that is in the tenths place....it is 7....now look at the number directly to the right of it....if that number is 5 or greater, u would round that 7 up to an 8...but if that number is 4 or below, ur 7 would stay the same.
So the number directly to the right of 7 is 7...and since it is greater then 5, u have to round the 7 in the tenths place up to 8.

solution is : 9.8
