Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we approximate the binomial distribution with a normal distribution, we have to apply a correction factor for the fact that we are now dealing with a continuous variable instead of a discrete one, as it was with the binomial distribution.
The probability of no more than 35 defective CDs: P(X<35)
In this case, as X=35 is not included in the interval, we start the interval from X=35-0.5=34.5.
being Pb the probability under the binomial distribution and Pn the probability under the normal distribution.
The area for the normal distribution is the one below X=34 (or P(X<34)).
Answer:
b=4
Step-by-step explanation:
So, we have the function . We need to find b such that the average rate of change or the slope is -1/8 between the intervel [2, b]. First, let's find f(2).
f(2) = 1/(2) = 1/2
So, we have the point (2, 1/2)
At point b, f(b) = 1/b.
Let's plug this into the slope formula:
Now, we just need to solve for b. First, let's multiply both the numerator and denominator by b (to get rid of the annoying fraction in the numerator).
Now, cross multiply.
Solve for b. Factor using the numbers -4 and -2.
Thus, b=4 or b=2.
However, b=2 is not a possible solution since the interval [2,2] means nothing. Thus, b=4.
