Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

first substitute y with the value (-5)

2x+5(-5)=-5 which is simplified to 2x+-25=-5

add 25 to -5 which gives you 2x=20

then divide 20 by 2 which makes x=10

Factories A, B and C produce computers. Factory A produces 4 times as manycomputers as factory C, and factory B produces 7 times

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The probability is $P(A') = 0.485$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that the number of computer produced by factory C is k = 1

So From the question we are told that

The number produced by factory A is 4k = 4

The number produced by factory B is 7k = 7

The probability of defective computers from A is $P(A) = 0.04$

The probability of defective computers from B is $P(B) = 0.02$

The probability of defective computers from C is $P(C) = 0.03$

Now the probability of factory A producing a defective computer out of the 4 computers produced is

$P(a) = 4 * P(A)$

substituting values

$P(a) = 4 * 0.04$

$P(a) = 0.16$

The probability of factory B producing a defective computer out of the 7 computers produced is

$P(b) = 7 * P(B)$

substituting values

$P(b) = 7 * 0.02$

$P(b) = 0.14$

The probability of factory C producing a defective computer out of the 1 computer produced is

$P(c) = 1 * P(C)$

substituting values

$P(c) = 1 * 0.03$

$P(b) = 0.03$

So the probability that the a computer produced from the three factory will be defective is

$P(t) = P(a) + P(b) + P(c)$

substituting values

$P(t) = 0.16 + 0.14 + 0.03$

$P(t) = 0.33$

Now the probability that the defective computer is produced from factory A is

$P(A') = \frac{P(a)}{P(t)}$

$P(A') = \frac{ 0.16}{0.33}$

$P(A') = 0.485$

Discuss and explain why sampling permits us to make inferences about populations.

GREYUIT [131]

The end result of sampling is to get a representative sample, or a small collection of units or cases from a much larger collection or population. In theory, the researcher can study the smaller group and produce accurate generalizations about the larger group. Researchers focus on the specific techniques that will yield highly representative samples much so in similarities as a population. Quantitative researchers tend to use a type of sampling based on theories of probability from mathematics, called probability sampling.Sampling is the group of individuals who participate in your study. These are the individuals who will participate in a qualitative study. People who could have been participants in your study but did not actually participate are not considered part of your sample.
