1 whole thing = 6 sixths
3 whole things = 18 sixths
1 third of a whole thing = 2 sixths of it
3 wholes plus 1 third = 18 sixths plus 2 sixths = 20 sixths
Answer:
0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted
Step-by-step explanation:
For each pen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a pen being defective is independent from other pens. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
In which 
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
And p is the probability of X happening.
17 randomly selected pens
This means that 
(a) Find the probability that this shipment is accepted if 10% of the total shipment is defective. (Use 3 decimal places.)
This is 
when 
. So
0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted
SOLUTION:
As an equation it is:
y - 3x = 5y + 2x
If you are asking for it as a sentence ( I will do it as a written sentence as I unfortunately can't show you the sentence verbally as you had asked ), then it is as you had written in your question so:
Three times x less than y is five times y plus two times x
Or you could write is as:
y subtracted by three times x is equivalent to the sum of five times y and two times x.
Essentially, even with the small alterations that you can make to the phrasing and sentence structure, the concepts are the same so you can use one of the above answers or alter it as you please.
Hope this helps! :)
I know my math and your answer is going to be A.
1 ) log ( 16 ) 4 = 1/2
Answer: B ) 1/2
2 ) 125 ^( 9 x - 2 ) = 150
9 x - 2 = log ( 125 ) 150
9 x - 2 = 1.038
9 x = 1.038 + 2
9 x = 3.038
x = 3.038 : 9
x = 0.3375
Answer: C ) 0.3375
3 ) log ( 3 x + 2 ) = 3
3 x + 2 = 10^3
3 x + 2 = 1000
3 x = 1000 - 2
3 x = 998
x = 998 / 3
Answer: B ) 998 / 3
