The probability that 2 out of 10 randomly selected shipments would be late is 0.19.

<h2>Given </h2>

A shipping company claims that 90% of its packages are delivered on time.

Jenny noticed that out of the last 10 packages shipped, 2 were late.

<h2>What is probability?</h2>

The probability of success and failure remain the same throughout the trials.

The probability that 2 out of 10 randomly selected shipments would be late is given by;

$\rm =^{10}C_2 \times (\dfrac{2}{10})^2 \times (0.8)^8\\\\=45 \times 0.04\times 0.16\\\\ = 0.19$

Hence, the probability that 2 out of 10 randomly selected shipments would be late is 0.19.

When x=1/2, what is the value of 8x-3 over x?

Taya2010 [7]

$\frac{8( \frac{1}{2}) - 3 } { \frac{1}{2} }$
$\frac{(8 \times \frac{1}{2}) - 3 }{ \frac{1}{2} } = \frac{4 - 3}{ \frac{1}{2} }$
Because half of 8 is 4

$\frac{1}{ \frac{1}{2} } = \frac{1 \times 2}{1 \times 1} = 2$
Divide 1 by 1/2 or .5... 1 becomes 1/1 and 1/2 is flipped to 2/1, then multiply

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 3x + x³

Taking differentiate

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x+x^3\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g'$

$=\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^3\right)$

solving

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x\right)$

$\mathrm{Take\:the\:constant\:out}:\quad \left(a\cdot f\right)'=a\cdot f\:'$

$=3\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:common\:derivative}:\quad \frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)=1$

$=3\cdot \:1$

$=3$

now solving

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^3\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Power\:Rule}:\quad \frac{d}{dx}\left(x^a\right)=a\cdot x^{a-1}$

$=3x^{3-1}$

$=3x^2$

Thus, the expression becomes

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x+x^3\right)=\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^3\right)$

$=3+3x^2$

Thus,

f'(x) = 3 + 3x²

Given that f'(x) = 15

substituting the value f'(x) = 15 in f'(x) = 3 + 3x²

f'(x) = 3 + 3x²

15 = 3 + 3x²

switch sides

3 + 3x² = 15

3x² = 15-3

3x² = 12

Divide both sides by 3

x² = 4

$\mathrm{For\:}x^2=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}x=\sqrt{f\left(a\right)},\:\:-\sqrt{f\left(a\right)}$

$x=\sqrt{4},\:x=-\sqrt{4}$

$x=2,\:x=-2$

Thus, the value of x will be:

$x=2,\:x=-2$
