Answer:
a) There is a 66.7% chance that you were given box 1
b) There is a 80% chance that you were given box 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, we need to note that there is a 1/10 chance of getting a defective bulb with box 1 and a 1/20 chance in box 2.
a) To find the answer to this, find the probability of getting a defective bulb for each box. Since there is only one bulb pulled in this example, we just use the base numbers given.
Box 1 = 1/10
Box 2 = 1/2
From this we can see that Box 1 is twice as likely that you get a defective bulb. As a result, the percentage chance would be 2/3 or 66.7%
b) For this answer, we need to square each of the probabilities in order to get the probability of getting a defective one twice.
Box 1 = 1/10^2 = 1/100
Box 2 = 1/20^2 = 1/400
As a result, Box 1 is four times more likely. This means that it would be a 4/5 chance and have a probability of 80%
Answer:
3x was subtracted from the left side, but 3x was subtracted from the right side. The Subtract Property of Equality states that you can subtract the same number from each side and the equation will remain true. But 3x and 3 are not the same number (unless x is 1).
x = -8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
Step 2: Subtract 12 from both sides.
Step 3: Divide both sides by 10.
