Let's use the variable x to represent the length of the first and second pieces.
If the third piece has twice the length of the first and second, its length is 2x.
If the fourth piece has half the length of the first and second, its length is 0.5*x.
Adding all four pieces and equating to 54 inches, we have:
So the length of each piece is:
12 inches, 12 inches, 24 inches and 6 inches.
Answer:
The number of ways to select a sample of 2 computer chips so that at least one of the chips is defective is 33 ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
The box contains 13 computer chips. Of these 13 chips 3 are defective and 10 are good.
A quality control inspector samples 2 computer chips.
The number of ways to select at least 1 defective chip is:
n (At least 1 defective chip) = n (1 defective chip) + n (2 defective chips)
The number of ways to select 1 defective chip is: ways.
The number of ways to select 2 defective chips is: ways.
n (At least 1 defective chip) = n (1 defective chip) + n (2 defective chips)
= 30 + 3
= 33
Thus, the number of ways to select a sample of 2 computer chips so that at least one of the chips is defective is 33 ways.
