Answer:

<h2><em><u>10</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u><em>First</em><em>:</em></u><em><u> </u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>Equation</u></em><em><u>)</u></em></h3>

Let,

The required number be = x

So,

Twice the difference of x and 3 = 2(x - 3)

Then,

Sum of the number x and 4 = x + 4

As we know,

<em>By</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>problem</em><em>,</em><em> </em>

2(x - 3) = x + 4 <em>[</em><em>According</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>problem</em><em>]</em>

<h3><em><u>Second</u></em><em><u>:</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>Solution</u></em><em><u>)</u></em></h3>

As given above,

2(x - 3) = x + 4

=> 2x - 6 = x + 4

=> 2x - x = 4 + 6

=> x = 10

<em><u>Hence </u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>required</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>number</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>10</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

A science class has 5 girls and 5 boys in the seventh grade and 5 girls and 3 boys in the eighth grade. The teacher randomly sel
NeX [460]
Probability that the 7th grader is a boy = number of boys / total kids = 5 / (5+5) = 5/10 or 1/2Probability that the 8th grader is a boy = number of boys / total kids = 3 / (5+3) = 3/8Probability that both are boys is calculated by multiplying both of the answers above: ½ * 3/8 = 3/16 or 0.1875

A video store specializes in three types of movies: children's, American West, and horror. It's known that:
xenn [34]

X, y, z denote children's movies, western movies, and horror movies, respectively. The related system of equations is formed and solved.

\left\{\begin{matrix} \qquad\qquad\ \dfrac{60}{100}x + \dfrac{50}{100}y =\dfrac{30}{100}(x+y+z)\\ \dfrac{20}{100}x+ \dfrac{60}{100}y+ \dfrac{60}{100}z= \dfrac{1}{2}(x+y+z) \\ \ \ \ x+100=y \end{matrix} \right.\

Simplifying the system of equations, we have

\left\{\begin{matrix} 3x + 2y -3z=0\\ -3x+ y+ z= 0 \\ \ \ \ x+100=y \end{matrix} \right.\ \ \Longrightarrow \ \left\{\begin{matrix} 5x-3z=-200\\ -2x+ z= -100 \end{matrix} \right.\

\ \ \  5x-3z=-200\\\underline{-6x+3z=-300} \ \Rightarrow \ x=500\\\ \ -x+0= \ 500

                                       y&=500+100=600\\ z&=3(500)-600=900

The video store has 500 children's movies, 600 westerns and 900 horror movies.

Acceptance Sampling Random sampling from a large lot of manufactured items yields a number of defective items X with an approxim
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Let β = np, n= 5 and p= 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.9 and 1

x > a, a= 0

The probability of an item inspected, P(x) = β∧x*e∧-β/x!

a) For x= 1: β = 5 X 0 = 0

P(x=1) = 0

For x = 2: β = 5 X 0.1 = 0.5

P(x=2) = 0.5²*e∧-0.5/2!

For x = 3: β = 5 X 0.3 = 1.5

P(x=3) = 1.5³*e∧-1.5/3!

For x =4: β = 5 X 0.5 = 2.5

P(x=4) = 2.5∧4*e∧-2.5/4!

For x = 5: β = 5 X 0.9 = 4.5

P(x=5) = 4.5∧5*e∧-4.5/5!

For x= 6: β = 5 X 1 = 5

P(x= 6) = 5∧6*e∧-5/6!

b) For plan1, x = 1: β + 10 X 0.1 = 1

P(x=1) = e∧-1/1! = 1/e = 1/2.718 = 0.368

For plan2, x=20: β = 100 X 0.1 = 10

P(x=20) = 10∧20*e∧-10/20!

Plan 2 is preferable because the probability of success is very small and the number of trial is comparatively large, hence, the poisson distribution will be suitable probability model.

d) Plan 1 is prefered instead, because the probability of success is larger and more profit is made.

e) Plen 2 is prefered, because it will be cheaper to afford.
