Answer:

0.5 ; 0.475 ; 0.689 ; 0.4013

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rate of production of defective batteries p = 0.05

Number of batteries produced (n) = 10

The expected number of defective batteries = mean = n * p = 10 * 0.05 = 0.5 batteries

Variance of defective batteries :

Var(X) = n * p * q ; q = 1 - p

Hence,

Var(X) = 10 * 0.05 * 0.95 = 0.475

Standard deviation (X) = sqrt(variance) = sqrt(0.475) = 0.689

Probability that atleast 1 battery is defective :

Using the binomial probability function

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - p(x = 0)

= 1 - q^n

= 1 - 0.95^10

= 1 - 0.59873693923837890625

= 0.40126306076162109375

= 0.4013

harina [27]
Cost less salvage value = 970,000 - 4500 = 965,500
Capacity of machine = 1,000,000 units.
units consumed at the end of second year = 200,000 + 300,000 = 500,000 units.
Capacity remaining = 1,000,000 - 500,000 = 500,000 units
Book value at end of second year = (500,000/1,000,000)*965,500 + 4500
= $487,250

How do you solve 8a squared plus 2 = 634
Inga [223]

Answer:

a ≈ 8.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation as so:

8a^2 + 2 = 634

First, subtract two from both sides:

8a^2 = 632

Then, divide by 8 to further isolate the variable.

a^2 = 79

To get rid of the squared, you have to take the square root of both sides. The square root of 79 is roughly 8.9. Ergo, a ≈ 8.9
