Answer:
The probability that the 3rd defective mirror is the 10th mirror examined = 0.0088
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Probability of manufacturing a defective mirror = 0.075
To find the probability that the 3rd defective mirror is the 10th mirror examined:
Let X be the random variable that follows a negative Binomial expression.
Then;
= 0.0087999
≅ 0.0088
Answer:
22 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
When z "varies jointly" with x and y, it can be described by the formula
z = kxy
Here, we have bags of mulch (n) varying jointly with area (a) and depth (d), both in feet. The given information can let us find the value of k.
n = kad
10 = k·(120)(1/4)
10/30 = k = 1/3 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of k
Now, we can fill in the other values of interest.
n = (1/3)·(200)·(1/3) = 200/9
n = 22 2/9
You need 22 2/9 bags of mulch to cover 200 ft² to a depth of 4 inches.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
This problem requires the formula be written with both area and depth expressed in feet, yet it gives depth in inches. The formula can also be written using depth in inches. In that case, k = 1/36.
Step-by-step explanation:
the rhombus is both rectangle and square
A = l * w
66 = l * (l - 5)
66 =
-5l
0 =
-5l - 66
l = 11 or 6 check which works.
A = 11 * 6, which fits.
length = 11 miles
width = 5 miles
