3+7=10
55/10=5.5
5.5 x 3=16.5
5.5 x 7=38.5
16.5 : 38.5

Answer:

16.5 : 38.5

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 3 + 7 = 10 parts

Divide the amount by 10 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

55 ÷ 10 = 5.5 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, then

3 parts = 3 × 5.5 = 16.5

7 parts = 7 × 5.5 = 38.5

55 in the ratio 3 : 7 is 16.5 : 38.5

To work out the probability of both errors occuring, simply multiply the probability of the first error by the probability of the second error. Therefore the probability of both errors occurring is 0.2 * 0.3 = 0.06.

7.109) The leading brand of dishwasher detergent has a 30% market share. A sample of 25 dishwasher detergent customers was taken

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

0.9021 = 90.21% probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand

Step-by-step explanation:

For each customer, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they choose the leading brand, or they do not. The probability of a customer choosing the leading brand is independent of any other customer, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used 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.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

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

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

The leading brand of dishwasher detergent has a 30% market share.

This means that $p = 0.3$

A sample of 25 dishwasher detergent customers was taken.

This means that $n = 25$

a. What is the probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand?

This is:

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{25,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{25} = 0.0001$

$P(X = 1) = C_{25,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{24} = 0.0014$

$P(X = 2) = C_{25,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{23} = 0.0074$

$P(X = 3) = C_{25,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{22} = 0.0243$

$P(X = 4) = C_{25,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{21} = 0.0572$

$P(X = 5) = C_{25,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{20} = 0.1030$

$P(X = 6) = C_{25,6}.(0.3)^{6}.(0.7)^{19} = 0.1472$

$P(X = 7) = C_{25,7}.(0.3)^{7}.(0.7)^{18} = 0.1712$

$P(X = 8) = C_{25,8}.(0.3)^{8}.(0.7)^{17} = 0.1651$

$P(X = 9) = C_{25,9}.(0.3)^{9}.(0.7)^{16} = 0.1336$

$P(X = 10) = C_{25,10}.(0.3)^{10}.(0.7)^{15} = 0.0916$

Then

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0001 + 0.0014 + 0.0074 + 0.0243 + 0.0572 + 0.1030 + 0.1472 + 0.1712 + 0.1651 + 0.1336 + 0.0916 = 0.9021$

0.9021 = 90.21% probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand

I have a right angle showing 1/6 how do I figure out what the rest of it equates to

alexgriva [62]

I would think of it as this but i could be wrong.
A right angle is 90 degrees and if you put 1/6 into a decimal it would be 6.
90-6<span>=84
so 84 degrees is missing of the right angle.</span>
