Answer:

$180

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the discount is 40 percent and is also $72, We will cross multiply. 72 x 100 = 40 x what?

7200/40 = 180

The mirror was originally $180.

The general term for the sequence 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, . . . is

Nuetrik [128]

We are given

sequence is 2 , 4 , 8 ,16 , 32 , .....

Firstly , we will check whether it is geometric sequence

Checking geometric sequence:

We will find common ratio between successive terms

and then we check whether they are equal

r1=(second term)/(first term)

$r_1=\frac{4}{2}=2$

r2=(third term)/(second term)

$r_2=\frac{8}{4}=2$

r3=(fourth term)/(third term)

$r_3=\frac{16}{8}=2$

r4=(fifth term)/(fourth term)

$r_4=\frac{32}{16}=2$

we can see that all four ratios are same

$r_1=r_2=r_3=r_4=2$

so, this is geometric sequence

Calculation of general term:

We got

common ratio is

$r=2$

Let's assume

number of terms is n

first term is 2

$a_1=2$

now, we can use formula

$a_n=a_1 (r)^{n-1}$

we can plug values

and we get

$a_n=2(2)^{n-1}$

$a_n=2^1(2)^{n-1}$

$a_n=(2)^{n-1+1}$

$a_n=(2)^{n}$ ..................Answer

People with a house number ending in 1 are polled. Is this sample random?<br><br> A) Yes<br> B) No

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A random sample is a poll in which the individuals who are taking the poll are not specific or biased. In this case it is a specific group of people, people who'se house number ends with 1

2. The quality assurance department inspects its production line. The product either fails or passes the inspection. Past experi

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

(a) $E(X) = 950$

(b) $COV = 0.007255$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem can be solved using binomial distribution since the product either fails or passes, the probability of failure or success is fixed and there are n repeated trials.

probability of failure = q = 0.05

probability of success = p = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

number of trials = n = 1000

(a) What is the expected number of non-defective units?

The expected number of non-defective units is given by

$E(X) = n \times p \\\\E(X) = 1000 \times 0.95 \\\\E(X) = 950$

(b) what is the COV of the number of non-defective units?

The coefficient of variance is given by

$COV = \frac{\sigma}{E(X)}$

Where the standard deviation is given by

$\sigma = \sqrt{n \times p\times q} \\\\\sigma = \sqrt{1000 \times 0.95\times 0.05} \\\\\sigma = 6.892$

So the coefficient of variance is

$COV = \frac{6.892}{950}$

$COV = 0.007255$

(c) What is the probability of having more than 980 non-defective units?

We can use the Normal distribution as an approximation to the Binomial distribution since n is quite large and so is p.

$P(X > 980) = 1 - P(X < 980)\\\\P(X > 980) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} )\\\\$

We need to consider the continuity correction factor whenever we use continuous probability distribution (Normal distribution) to approximate discrete probability distribution (Binomial distribution).

$P(X > 980) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{979.5 - 950}{6.892} )\\\\P(X > 980) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{29.5}{6.892} )\\\\P(X > 980) = 1 - P(Z < 4.28)\\\\$

The z-score corresponding to 4.28 is 0.99999

$P(X > 980) = 1 - 0.99999\\\\P(X > 980) = 0.00001\\\\$

So it means that it is very unlikely that there will be more than 980 non-defective units.

For what values of x is x + 2x = 24 true?

sveta [45]

I’m sorry. But none of your choices are correct. The correct answer would be 3 and 4. Further more explaining= 3+ 2 times 4 is 24. 2x= 4. That equals 8 and 3 times 8 is 24
