Complete Question

A factory received a shipment of 10 generators and the vendor who sold the items knows there are 4 generators in the shipment that are defective. Before the receiving foreman accepts the delivery, he samples the shipment, and if too many of the generators in the sample are defective, he will refuse the shipment. Give answer as a decimal to three decimal places.

(A) If a sample of 4 generators is selected, find the probability that all in the sample are defective.

(B) If a sample of 4 generators is selected, find the probability that none in the sample is defective.

Solution

A) This is a binomial distribution problem

Binomial distribution function is represented by

P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

n = total number of sample spaces = number of generators to be picked = 4

x = Number of successes required = number of defective generators required = 4

p = probability of success = probability that a randomly selected generator is defective = (4/10) = 0.40

q = probability of failure = probability that a randomly selected generator is NOT defective = 1 - p = 1 - 0.40 = 0.60

P(X = 4) = ⁴C₄ (0.40)⁴ (0.6)⁴⁻⁴ = 0.0256 = 0.026 to 3 d.p.

B) n = total number of sample spaces = number of generators to be picked = 4

x = Number of successes required = number of defective generators required = 0

p = probability of success = probability that a randomly selected generator is defective = (4/10) = 0.40

q = probability of failure = probability that a randomly selected generator is NOT defective = 1 - p = 1 - 0.40 = 0.60

P(X = 0) = ⁴C₀ (0.40)⁰ (0.6)⁴⁻⁰ = 0.1296 = 0.130 to 3 d.p.

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

Shifts 4 units down ---> g(x)=2x-10

Stretches f(x) by a factor of 4 away from x-axis--->g(x)=8x-6

Shifts f(x) 4 units right---> g(x)=2x-14

Compress f(x) by a factor of 1/4 toward the y-axis ---> g(x)=1/2x-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given f(x)=2x-6

We need to match the transformations.

1) shifts f(x) 4 units down.

When function f(x) shifts k units down the new function becomes f(x)-k

In our case

g(x)=2x-6-4\ng(x)=2x-10

So, Shifts 4 units down ---> g(x)=2x-10

2) Stretches f(x) by a factor of 4 away from x-axis

When function f(x) is stretched by a factor of b away from x-axis the new function becomes f(bx)

g(x)=2(4x)-6\ng(x)=8x-6

So, Stretches f(x) by a factor of 4 away from x-axis--->g(x)=8x-6

3) Shifts f(x) 4 units right

When function f(x) shifts h units right the new function becomes f(x-h)

g(x)=2(x-4)-6\ng(x)=2x-8-6\ng(x)=2x-14

So,  Shifts f(x) 4 units right---> g(x)=2x-14

4) Compress f(x) by a factor of 1/4 toward the y-axis

When function f(x) is compressed by h factor of a toward the y-axis the new function becomes h.f(x)

g(x)=1/4(2x-6)\ng(x)=1/2x-3/2

Compress f(x) by a factor of 1/4 toward the y-axis ---> g(x)=1/2x-3/2

(Option Not given)

(If we compress f(x) by a factor of 4 towards y-axis we get g(x)=8x-24)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$2.75 x 12.5 = 34.375

34.375 x 10% = 3.4375

$34.375 + 3.4375 = 37.8125

Step-by-step explanation:

HOME Realty claims that it can sell a detached, residential house faster than any other realty company. With the aim of examining HOME's claim, you sample 20 customers who sold a detached, residential house through HOME and record the selling times (in days) of the houses. Your data are summarized below:Selling Time Frequency
0 10 3
10 20 4
20 30 6
30 40 4
40 50 3


Find the proportion of selling times in the sample that are less than 20 days claims that it can sell a detached, residential house faster than any other realty company.

Answers

Answer:

0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Selling Time___ Frequency

0 10____________3

10 20__________ 4

20 30__________ 6

30 40__________ 4

40 50__________ 3

Proportion of selling time in sample above that are less Than 20 days :

Taking the sum of the frequency :

Hence, total frequency = (3 + 4 + 6 + 4 + 3) = 20

Selling time which is less Than 20 days :

(0 - 10) = 3

(10 - 20) = 4

Total = (3 + 4) = 7

Proportion = selling time less Than 20 days / total frequency

= 7 / 20

= 0.35
