The battery on McKenzies old computer can last 4(1/5) hours. She bought a new computer that has a battery that can last 40% long

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

$5\frac{22}{25}\ hours$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$4\frac{1}{5}\ hours=\frac{4*5+1}{5}=\frac{21}{5}\ hours$

$100\%+40\%=140\%=\frac{140}{100}$

Let

x ------> new battery life

The equation that represent this situation is

$x=\frac{140}{100} (\frac{21}{5})=\frac{2,940}{500}\ hours$

convert to mixed number

$\frac{2,940}{500}=\frac{2,500}{500}+\frac{440}{500}=5\frac{22}{25}\ hours$

A package of 10 batteries is checked to determine if there are any dead batteries. Four batteries are checked. If one or more ar

frutty [35]

Answer:

There is a probability of 76% of not selling the package if there are actually three dead batteries in the package.

Step-by-step explanation:

With a 10-units package of batteries with 3 dead batteries, the sampling can be modeled as a binomial random variable with:

n=4 (the amount of batteries picked for the sample).
p=3/10=0.3 (the proportion of dead batteries).
k≥1 (the amount of dead batteries in the sample needed to not sell the package).

The probability of having k dead batteries in the sample is:

$P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}$

Then, the probability of having one or more dead batteries in the sample (k≥1) is:

$P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)\\\\\\P(x=0) = \dbinom{4}{0} p^{0}q^{4}=1*1*0.7^4=0.2401\\\\\\P(x\geq1)=1-0.2401=0.7599\approx0.76$
