Ten percent of the engines manufactured on an assembly line are defective. If engines are randomly selected one at a time and tested, what is the probability the fourth defective engine will be found on the second trial?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Let x be the number of trails on which the [tex]r^{th}[/tex] defective occurs.

Let the probability that an occurrence of a defective be p = 0.10

Suppose x is a random variable that follows a negative binomial distribution with parameters r and p.

Then the probability mass function of X can be expressed as:

[tex]P(X=x) = \bigg (^{x-1}_{r-1} \bigg)p^r (1 - p) ^{x-r} \ \ \ \ ; x=r, \ r+1 , \ r+2 , ...[/tex]

[tex]P(X=x) = \bigg (^{x-1}_{r-1} \bigg)(0.10)^r (1 - 0.10) ^{x-r}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=x) = \bigg (^{x-1}_{r-1} \bigg)(0.10)^r ( 0.90) ^{x-r} \ \ ... \ \ (1)[/tex]

We are to find the probability of the fourth defective engine will be found on the second trial.

i.e. r =  4 and x = 2

[tex]P(X=2) = \bigg (^{2-1}_{4-1} \bigg)(0.10)^4 ( 0.90) ^{2-4}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=2) = \bigg (^1}_{3} \bigg)(0.10)^4 ( 0.90) ^{-2}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=2) = \bigg (\dfrac{1!}{3!(1-3)!} \bigg)(0.10)^4 ( 0.90) ^{-2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(X=2) = 0}[/tex]

-413.4=-15.9n please help

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {n = 26}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for [tex]n[/tex]:

[tex]-413.4 = -15.9n[/tex]

-Switch sides:

[tex]-15.9n = -413.4[/tex]

-Divide both sides by [tex]15.9[/tex] and expand by multiplying both numerator and denominator by [tex]10[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{-15.9n}{-15.9} = \frac{-413.4}{-15.9}[/tex]

[tex]n = \frac{-4134}{-159}[/tex]

-Divide [tex]-4134[/tex] and [tex]-159[/tex]:

[tex]n = \frac{-4134}{-159}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed {n = 26}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of [tex]n[/tex] is [tex]26[/tex].

Determine whether the Mean Value Theorem can be applied to f on the closed interval [a, b]. If the Mean Value Theorem can be applied, find all values of c in the open interval (a, b) such that f '(c) = f (b) − f (a) b − a . If the Mean Value Theorem cannot be applied, explain why not.

f(x) = x^3 + 2x, [-1,1]

Answers

Answer:

There is a value of [tex]c[/tex] in (-1, 1), [tex]c = 0.577[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]f(x) = x^{3}+2\cdot x[/tex] for [tex]x \in[-1,1][/tex], we need to prove that [tex]f(x)[/tex] is continuous and differentiable to apply the Mean Value Theorem. Given that [tex]f(x)[/tex] is a polynomical function, its domain comprises all real numbers and therefore, function is continuous.

If [tex]f(x)[/tex] is differentiable, then [tex]f'(x)[/tex] exists for all value of [tex]x[/tex]. By definition of derivative, we obtain the following expression:

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{(x+h)^{3}+2\cdot (x+h)-x^{3}-2\cdot x}{h}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{x^{3}+3\cdot x^{2}\cdot h+3\cdot x\cdot h^{2}+h^{3}+2\cdot x+2\cdot h-x^{3}-2\cdot x}{h}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{3\cdot x^{2}\cdot h+3\cdot x\cdot h^{2}+h^{3}+2\cdot h}{h}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} 3\cdot x^{2}+ \lim_{h \to 0} 3\cdot x \cdot h+ \lim_{h \to 0} h^{2}+ \lim_{h \to 0} 2[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = 3\cdot x^{2}+2[/tex] (Eq. 2)

The derivative of a cubic function is quadratic function, which is also a polynomic function. Hence, the function is differentiable at the given interval.

According to the Mean Value Theorem, the following relationship is fulfilled:

[tex]f'(c) = \frac{f(1)-f(-1)}{1-(-1)}[/tex] (Eq. 3)

If we know that [tex]f(-1) = -3[/tex], [tex]f(1) = 3[/tex] and [tex]f'(c) = 3\cdot c^{2}+2[/tex], then we expand the definition as follows:

[tex]3\cdot c^{2}+2 = 3[/tex]

[tex]3\cdot c^{2} = 1[/tex]

[tex]c = \sqrt{\frac{1}{3} }[/tex]

[tex]c \approx 0.577[/tex]

There is a value of [tex]c[/tex] in the interval (-1, 1), [tex]c = 0.577[/tex].

Bill makes $30.00 per day. He makes twice as much as hack makes before jacks salary was doubled. How much does jack make now?

Answers

Answer:

$30.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack's original salary before it was doubled was $15.00 per day.

Let's assume Jack's original salary is "x" dollars per day.

According to the given information, Bill makes $30.00 per day, which is twice as much as Jack made before his salary was doubled. So, before Jack's salary was doubled, he made "x" dollars per day.

After Jack's salary was doubled, he makes 2 * x = 2x dollars per day.

Now, we know that Bill makes $30.00 per day, which is equivalent to the new salary of Jack after it was doubled.

So, we can set up an equation:

2x = $30.00

To find the value of "x," we can divide both sides by 2:

x = $30.00 / 2

x = $15.00

Therefore, Jack's original salary before it was doubled was $15.00 per day.

help me (a) The total cost of rent is determined by recording x months of rent at $1400 per month, plus a $150 application fee.

Answers

Answer:

$1400x  + $150

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total cost of rent used for a month be $1400 plus a $150 application fee.

This means that;

Total cost (1 month) = $1400(1) + $150 = $1550

TO calculate the cost for x months, we will simply multiply x with the cost of rent for 1 month as shown.

The cost of rent for x month = 1400x * $150

The cost of rent for x month = $1400x  + $150 (application fee are paid only once)

Answer:

4. y = -1/2x + 5

5. y = -1/3x + 3

6. y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

For #4:

Because these lines are parallel, we know that they will have the same slope.

To get b, or the y-intercept, I just started at the point (4,4) and used the slope to work backwards to the y-axis. This is really not the best way to do it (especially with big numbers) but it works in a pinch. Also, I forgot the better way :/

For #5:

These lines are perpendicular. That means that the slopes are reciprocals of the other and, when multiplied with each other, the answer will be -1.

The reciprocal of 3 is -1/3.

To get the y-intercept, I did the same as above.

For #6:

x = 2 is a vertical line. To make a line perpendicular to it, that is, to make a line that intersects with it at 90°, the answer line will have to be horizontal.

That means that our answer is y = ?

We know that the line passes through a very specific point (2,1), and the line provided in the question already gives us the x value of this point. All we have to do is set y equal to the y value.

So, y = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is the form y=mx+b

m is the slope. You can find it by finding two points that the line intersects, and counting the number of units between them.

Remember the slope is "rise over run", so, the difference in y over the difference in x.

b is the y-intercept. You can find it by looking at where the line crosses the y-axis.
