Answer:

The rate of change is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking for the rate of change, aka slope, remember "Height over Right." Basically, how far up divided by how far right between two points, then simplify.

I hope this helps!

Approximately 5% of calculators coming out of the production lines have a defect. Fifty calculators are randomly selected from t

baherus [9]

Answer:

0.2611 = 26.11% probability that exactly 2 calculators are defective.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each calculator, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a calculator being defective is independent of any other calculator, 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.

5% of calculators coming out of the production lines have a defect.

This means that $p = 0.05$

Fifty calculators are randomly selected from the production line and tested for defects.

This means that $n = 50$

What is the probability that exactly 2 calculators are defective?

This is P(X = 2). So

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

$P(X = 2) = C_{50,2}.(0.05)^{2}.(0.95)^{48} = 0.2611$

0.2611 = 26.11% probability that exactly 2 calculators are defective.

marta [7]

Answer=10%

15+2+3=20
2 of which are blue.
Put it over 100, 20x5=100 so 2x5=10

I have 10 goats, n of which are male. I need to choose 2 of them to make a casserole.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer: There are 4 male goats.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that n of the 10 goats are male.

The probability that in a random selection, the selected goat is a male, is equal to the quotient between the number of male goats (n) and the total number of goats (10)

The probability is;

p = n/10

Now the total number of goats is 9, and the number of male goats is n -1

then the probability of selecting a male goat again is:

q = (n-1)/9

The joint probability (the probability that the two selected goats are male) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, this is

P = p*q = (n/10)*((n-1)/9)

And we know that this probability is equal to 2/15

Then we have:

(n/10)*((n-1)/9) = 2/15

(n*(n-1))/90 = 2/15

n*(n-1) = 90*2/15 = 12

n^2 - n = 12

n^2 - n - 12 = 0

This is a quadratic equation, we can find the solutions if we use Bhaskara's formula:

For an equation:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

The two solutions are given by:

$x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2*a}$

For our case, the solutions will be:

$n = \frac{1 +- \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4*1*(-12)} }{2*1 } = \frac{1+- 7}{2}$

The two solutions are:

n = (1 - 7)/2 = -3 (this solution does not make sense, we can not have a negative number of goats)

The other solution is:

n = (1 + 7)/2 = 4

This solution does make sense, this means that we have 4 male goats.
