Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Since both [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], the necessary conditions are satisfied.

0.9945 = 99.45% probability that at most 85 out of 136 DVDs will work correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

It is needed that:

[tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex]

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Assume the probability that a given DVD will work correctly is 52%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.52[/tex]

136 DVDs

This means that [tex]n = 136[/tex]

Test the conditions:

[tex]np = 136*0.52 = 70.72 \geq 10[/tex]

[tex]n(1-p) = 136*0.48 = 65.28 \geq 10[/tex]

Since both [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], the necessary conditions are satisfied.

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 136*0.52 = 70.72[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{136*0.52*0.48} = 5.83[/tex]

Consider the probability that at most 85 out of 136 DVDs will work correctly.

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \leq 85 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 85.5)[/tex], which is the p-value of Z when X = 85.5. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{85.5 - 70.72}{5.83}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.54[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.54[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9945.

0.9945 = 99.45% probability that at most 85 out of 136 DVDs will work correctly.

what is the sum of 2/3,1/2and1/4=

Answers

Answer:

17/12

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to add fractions, you have to have a common denominator. The denominators in these fractions are 3, 2, and 4 (the bottom numbers). To get a common denominator, figure out what number all three of them can go into. Their common factor would be 12 because all three numbers go into 12.

Multiply each numerator in the fraction (the top number) by how much it takes to get from our current denominators (3,2,4) to our final denominator (12).

For example, in 2/3 we know that 3 times 4 equals 12. Multiply the top number by 4 to get 8/12.

In 1/2 we know that 2 times 6 equals 12. Multiply by 6 to get 6/12.

In 1/4 we know that 4 times 3 equals 12. Multiply by 3 to get 3/12.

Add the fractions to get 17/12.

If 18 is subtracted from twice the square of an integer, the result is equal to nine times the integer. What is the value of the integer?

Answers

Answer:

6 or -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can let this integer be x.

Therefore, according to the question we have:

[tex]2x^2-18=9x[/tex]

Subtracting 9x, we have a quadratic:

[tex]2x^2-9x-18=0[/tex]

Plugging into the quadratic equation:

[tex]\frac{9+\sqrt{81+144}}{4}, \frac{9-\sqrt{81+144}}{4},[/tex]

the square root of 81+144 is 15, so the answer is either 6 or -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 20 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours. Together they charged a total of $2750.
What was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $205 per hour?

-Whats the First mechanic: $ -----per hour

-Whats the Second mechanic: $ ---- per hour ​

Answers

I answer this question before this is the solution just change the total of $2750:

Two mechanics worked on a car, The first mechanic worked for 20 hours and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours together they charged a total of $1150.

Let's make,
mechanic #1's rate = x
mechanic #2's rate = y

* Their rate is dollars per hour ($/hr)

mechanic #1 worked for 20 hours (hr × $/hr = $)
20x = money earned by mech#1

and mechanic #2 worked for 5 hours
5y = money earned by mech#2

together they charged a total of $1150. So the amount of money earned by both mechanics.

20x + 5y = 1150

the sum of the two rates was $95 per hour.

x + y = 95

which means
x = 95 - y

plug (95 - y) in for "x" in the other equation to get everything in terms of one variable.

20(95 - y) + 5y = 1150

solve for y

1900 - 20y + 5y = 1150
1900 - 15y = 1150
-15y = 1150 - 1900
-15y = -750
y = -750/-15
y = 50 $/hr

Now use this to solve for x

x + y = 95
x + 50 = 95
x = 95 - 50
x = 45 $/hr

mech#1 charged 45$/hr
mech #2 charged 50$/hr

Jason stands in the corner of a very large field. He walks, on a bearing of 030°,
a distance of d metres. Jason then changes direction and walks twice as far on a new
bearing of 120°. At the end of the walk Jason calculates both the distance he must
walk and the bearing required to return to his original position. Given that the total
distance walked is 120 metres, what answers will Jason get if he is correct?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

d + 2d = 120

3d = 120

d = 40 m

east distance was 40cos30 + 80cos120 = -5.35898 m

north distance was 40sin30 + 80sin120 = 89.282032

as 30° and 120° bearings are 90° apart, Jason needs to walk

D = √(d² + (2d)²) = d√5 or 40√5 meters or about 89.44 m to return to his original position.

we could also use √(-5.35898² + 89.282032²) = 89.44 m

direction will be

θ = arctan -89.28/5.359 = -86.565° or a bearing of 273.4°
