Answer:

91.42 crates

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Greatest Number of 140kg crates = x

weight of crate = 140-kilogram

Weight of other shipment = 13200 kilograms

greatest weight of container = 26000 kilograms

Weight of other shipment + (weight of crate * number of crates) ≤ greatest weight of container

13,200 + 140x ≤ 26,000

140x ≤ 26,000 - 13,200

140x ≤ 12,800

x ≤ 12,800/140

x ≤ 91.42 kilograms

Greatest Number of 140kg crates = 91.42 crates

podryga [215]

Let the four consecutive numbers be x,x+1,x+2,x+3.

Now the product of second and third number=(x+1)(x+2)=x²+3x+2=k

Product of first and fourth number=x(x+3)=x²+3x=k-2

A.T.Q

product of second and third number= product of first and fourth number+2

Break downs occur on a 20-years-old car with rate λ= 0.5 breakdowns/week. The owner of the car is planning to have a trip on his

KengaRu [80]

Answer: There is probability of 0.367 that there will be no breakdown on his car in the trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean (λ) = 0.5 breakdown per week

Number of weeks the owner of the car is planning to have a trip on his car for = 2 weeks

So, mean for 2 weeks would be

$0.5\times 2=1.0$

We need to find the probability that there will be no breakdown on his car in the trip.

Probability that there will be no breakdown on his car in the trip is given by

P(X=0) is given by

$\dfrac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^k}{k!}\\\\=\dfrac{e^{-1}1^0}{0!}\\\\=0.367$

Hence, there is probability of 0.367 that there will be no breakdown on his car in the trip.
