A pharmaceutical company receives large shipments of aspirin tablets. The acceptance sampling plan is to randomly select and tes
Pavel [41]

Answer:

0.818

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the shipment has a ton of aspirin tablets, we can assume that we pick 13 of them <em>with</em> <em>reposition, </em>because the probability shoudn't change dramatically from the probability of picking without reposition if we do so.

We call D the amount of defective tablets. If we assume that we pick the tablets with reposition, then we obtain that D is a random variable of Binomial distribution with parameters 13 and 0.6 (the probability of picking a defective tablet).

We want D to be at most one. To calculate the probability of that event we add up the probability of D being equal to 0 and the probability of D being equal to one. Since D is binomial, we have

  • P(D = 0) = (1-0.06)^{13} = 0.447
  • P(D = 1) = {13 \choose 1} * 0.06^1 * (1-0.06)^{12} = 13*0.06*0.94^{12} = 0.371

We conclude that

P(D \leq 1) = P(D = 0) + P(D = 1) = 0.447+0.371 = 0.818

Hence, the shipment will be accepted with probability 0.818

A country's population in 1995 was 32 million. In 1997 it was 34 million. Estimate the population in 2003 using the exponential
fomenos
Hello! Looking at the numbers, you can see that the population of a country goes up by 1 million people each year. You could also say that it goes up by 2 million every 2 years. At this rate, the population in 2003 was 40 million. This is because 1997-2003 are 6 years apart. Do 1 million * 6 to get 6 million and add that to 34 million from 1997 to get 40 million in 2003.

What is the solution of the equation 8(3x+4)=2(12x-8)?
Maslowich
There is no solution because after you distribute, you have 24x in both sides. When moved to the other side, they cancel. Therefore, you are left with 24=-16 which isn’t true.

Which expression is the factored form of −1.5w+7.5 ?
tresset_1 [31]
The correct answer is C) -1.5(w-5).

Both numbers are divisible by 1.5.  Since there is a negative in the first term, we will factor that out as well.  This means we are dividing both terms by -1.5:

-1.5(     )

Taking -1.5 out of -1.5w, we have w left:

-1.5(w    )

Dividing 7.5 by -1.5, we have -5:

-1.5(w-5)
