Using the expected value of the binomial distribution, it is found that the robot would be expected to find 19 flawed in a batch of 95 bulbs.

For each bulb, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a bulb being defective is independent of any other bulb, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution? </h3>
  • The <em>binomial distribution</em> is the <u>probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability of a success on each trial</u>.

The expected value is given by:

E(X) = np

In this problem:

  • Out of 12 + 48 = 60 bulbs, 12 were flawed, hence p = \frac{12}{60} = 0.2.
  • A batch of 95 bulbs is taken, hence n = 95.

Then, the <em>expected value </em>is:

E(X) = np = 95(0.2) = 19

The robot would be expected to find 19 flawed in a batch of 95 bulbs.

Answer:

  • 172.12 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the figure as 3 parts: semicircle with radius of 4 in, rectangle with 7x9 in and rectangle 6x14 in.

<u>Area of semicircle:</u>

  • A = 1/2*πr² = 1/2*3..14*4² = 25.12 in²

<u>Area of rectangles:</u>

  • 7*9 = 63 in²
  • 6*14 = 84 in²

<u>Total area:</u>

  • 25.12 + 63 + 84 = 172.12 in²
