Answer:

Fern will knit 32 scarves in 8 nights.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of scarves knitted by Fern in 5 night = 20

Relation between number of scarves knitted and number of nights is proportional,

Therefore, Number of scarves knitted (s) ∝ Number of nights spent to knit the scarves (n)

s ∝ n

s = kn

k = \frac{s}{n}

Here, k = proportionality constant

For s = 20 and n = 5,

k = \frac{20}{5}

k = 4 scarves per night

For 8 nights, by using the same proportionality rule,

k = \frac{s}{8}

4 = \frac{s}{8}

s = 32 scarves

Therefore, Fern will knit 32 scarves in 8 nights.

A production process produces 2% defective parts. a sample of 5 parts from the production is selected. what is the probability t
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Probability of a sample that contains exactly two defective parts is .0037 or .37%

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know if P is the probability of achieving k results in n trials then probability formula is P = \binom{n}{k}p^{K}q^{n-k}

In this formula n = number of trials

                        k = number of success

                        (n-k) = number of failures

                         p = probability of success in one trial

                         q = (1-p) = probability of failure in one trial

In this sum n = 5

                  k = 2

number failures (n-k) = (5-2) = 3

                            p = 2% which can be written as .02

                            q = 98% Which can be written as .98

Now putting these values in the formula

                        P = \binom{5}{2}(.02)^{2}(.98)^{5-2}

                        P = \binom{5}{2}(.02)^{2}(.98)^{3}

                   \binom{5}{2}= 5!/3!2!    

                                              = 5×4×3×2×1/3×2×1×2×1

                                              = 5×2 =10

                                       P = 10×(.02)²×(.98)³

                                          = .0037 or .37%
