during a particular period a university's information technology office received 20 service orders for problems with printers, o

stira [4]

Answer:

0.2384 = 23.84% probability that 3 were laser printers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The printers will be chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this question:

20 orders means that $N = 8$

8 were laser printers, which means that $k = 8$

Sample of 5 means that $n = 5$

What is the probability that 3 were laser printers?

This is P(X = 3).

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 3) = h(3,20,5,8) = \frac{C_{8,3}*C_{12,2}}{C_{20,5}} = 0.2384$

0.2384 = 23.84% probability that 3 were laser printers.

If your car gets 28 miles per gallon and you travel 30 miles round-trip to work five days a week, how much do you pay each 4-wee

disa [49]

Answer:

You'd pay $65.35 every 4 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to gather all the miles.

30 miles x 5 = 150

So that is 150 miles/per week

Then you have to devide the miles by how many gallons per gas you travle.

150/28 miles per gallon = 5.3571....

That how many gallons you'll need a week.

Now, you times the gallons by the price of the gas

5.3571... x $3.05 = $16.3392...

Finally you times the amoutn of money for a week time 4 weeks.

$16.3392... x 4 = $65.35 (to the two decimal mark)

Hope this helped you! : )

Please, help thanks! I would like an explanation how to do it too, IF you dont mind.

Answer:

Phoebe has £180, Andy has £60, and Polly has £30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, to start of let's establish some variables! We'll give Phoebe the variable "p", Andy the variable "a", and Polly the variable "o". By giving each person a variable we can create an equation and solve for it!

So, what do we know?

Well we know the following information...

p + a + o = 270

(Phoebe + Andy + Polly = £270)

p = 3a

(Phoebe = 3 times more than Andy)

a = 2o

(Andy = 2 times more than Polly)

To be able to solve this equation we have to solve for just one variable first.The only one we can use is "o" for Polly!

3(2o) + 2o + o = 270

6o + 2o + o = 270 (Distribute 3 to get like terms)

9o = 270 (Combine like terms [6+2+1])

o = 30 (Divide by 9 on both sides to get "o" by itself)

Now that we have how much Polly has, we have to solve for Andy and Phoebe. (To do this we will input our value, 30, where our variable is "o")

Andy

a = 2(30) (Input term)

a = 60 (Multiply by 2 to get final answer)

(Since we now know what Andy has we can input 60 into our "a" variable to solve for Phoebe)

Phoebe

p = 3(60) (Input term)

p = 180 (Multiply by 3 to get final answer)

Now! Just to check we are going to input our variables into our original equation to be sure we have the right variables.

p + a + o = 270

180 + 60 + 30 = 270!!

Hope this Helps! :)

Which number is rational -3 1/2, sqrt 5, pi, 9.23157...

PIT_PIT [208]

-3 1/2 is rational because the decimal ends at -3.5. It is not sqrt(5) because the decimal never ends and the same follows for pi and 9.23157.
