A pharmaceutical company receives large shipments of ibuprofen tablets and uses an acceptance sampling plan. This plan randomly selects and tests 26 tablets, then accepts the whole batch if there is at most one that doesn't meet the required specifications. What is the probability that this whole shipment will be accepted if a particular shipment of thousands of ibuprofen tablets actually has a 4% rate of defects

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.7208 = 72.08% probability that this whole shipment will be accepted.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each tablet, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it meets the required specifications, or it does not. The probability of a tablet meeting the required specifications is independent of any other tablet, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

4% rate of defects

This means that [tex]p = 0.04[/tex]

26 tablets

This means that [tex]n = 26[/tex]

What is the probability that this whole shipment will be accepted?

Probability that at most one tablet does not meet the specifications, which is:

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

Thus

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{26,0}.(0.04)^{0}.(0.96)^{26} = 0.3460[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{26,1}.(0.04)^{1}.(0.96)^{25} = 0.3748[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.3460 + 0.3748 = 0.7208[/tex]

0.7208 = 72.08% probability that this whole shipment will be accepted.

x^2-10x=1 Solve by completing the square

Answers

Answer:

x = 5±sqrt(26)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-10x=1

Take the coefficient of x

-10

Divide by 2

-10/2 = -5

Square it

(-5)^2 = 25

Add this to both side

x^2-10x+25=1+25

(x-5)^2 = 26

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-5)^2) = ±sqrt(26)

x-5 = ±sqrt(26)

Add 5 to each side

x = 5±sqrt(26)

Answer:

-0.0990195 and 10.09902

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, the same value needs to be added to both sides

x^2-10x+?=1+?

To complete the square x^2-10x+25=(x-5)^2 add 25 to the expression.

x^2-10x+25=1+?

Since 25 was added to the left-side, you need to add it to the right-side as well.

x^2-10x+25=1+25

use a^2-2ab+b^2=(a-b)^2 to factor this expression.

(x-5)^2=1+25

Then add the numbers together.

(x-5)^2=26

Solve for x.

x1=-squareroot26+5

x2=squareroot26+5

therefore you have 2 solutions

x1=-squareroot26+5

=-0.0990195

and

x2=squareroot26+5

=10.09902

x+y+−y=2+−y (Add -y to both sides)

x=−y+2

Step: Substitute −y+2 for x in 3x−4y=27:

3x−4y=27

3(−y+2)−4y=27

−7y+6=27 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

15. 70° because a right angle is 90° and we have the angle of ADB which is 20°. So 90°-20°=70°.

16. 70° because angle PSQ is 60° and angle QSR is 10°. So 60°+10°=70°.

17. 55° because it says it in the explanation. I assume this is a typo and they meant to ask the measurement of ADC and in that case it would be 130° because angle ADB is 75° and angle BDC is 55°. 75°+55°=130°.

18. 40° because angle PSQ is a right angle which means it's 90°. So 130°-90°=40°.

19. 140° because angle ADB is 120° and angle BDC is 20° so 120°+20°=140°.

20. 125° because again it's in the explanation. But if it's a typo and they meant what is the measurement of PSQ then it is 50° because PSR is 125° and QSR is 75° so 125°-75°=50°.

Sam and Mary collect marbles. “If you give me 5 marbles I’ll have twice as many as you.” said Sam to Mary.
“But if you give me 4 marbles wwe would have the same number said Mary to Sam.
How many marbles do they have altogether?

Answers

Answer:

54 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a word problem leading to a simultaneous equation

Let 'x' represent the initial number of marbles with Sam, and let 'y' represent the initial number of marbles with Mary,

If Mary gives Sam 5 marbles, we have;

x + 5 = 2 × (y - 5)...(1)

If Sam gives Mary 4 marbles, we get;

x - 4 = y + 4...(2)

From equation (1), we get;

x + 5 = 2 × (y - 5) = 2·y - 10

x = 2·y - 10 - 5 = 2·y - 15

x = 2·y - 15...(3)

From equation (2), we have;

x - 4 = y + 4

∴ x = y + 4 + 4 = y + 8

x = y + 8...(4)

Equating the two values of 'x' in equation (3), and equation (4), we get;

2·y - 15 = y + 8

2·y - y = 8 + 15 = 23

∴ y = 23

From equation (4), we get;

x = y + 8 = 23 + 8 = 31

x = 31

The total number of marbles they have altogether = x + y

However, x + y = 23 + 31 = 54

Therefore;

The total number of marbles they have altogether = 54 marbles.

A man bought 2 pounds of coffee and 1 pound of butter for a total of $11.25. A month later, the prices had not changed (this makes it a fictitious problem), and he bought 3 pounds of coffee and 2 pounds of butter for $18.50. Find the price per pound of both the coffee and the butter.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price per pound of coffee be c

Let the price ce per pound of butter be b.

We can form an equation based on the information given and this will be:

2c + b = 11.25 ....... i

3c + 2b = 18.50 ....... ii

From equation i, b = 11.25 - 2c ..... iii

Put the value of b into equation ii.

3c + 2b = 18.50

3c + 2(11.25 - 2c) = 18.50

3c + 22.50 - 4c = 18.50

-c = 18.50 - 22.50

c = 4.00

A pound of coffee cost $4.00

Since b = 11.25 - 2c .

b = 11.25 - 2(4.00)

b = 11.25 - 8.00

b = 3.25

A pound of butter costs $3.25

The Christian Church has inscribed the acronym INRI, which stands for the Latin Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum ("Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews") over the crucifix for centuries. American and European corporations discovered long ago that it is easier to remember three letters than it is to remember three names. During the twentieth century, there was an upsurge in the use of acronyms that corresponded with the introduction of highly technical vocabulary. The tendency to shorten has an established history and many of these abbreviations have even found their way into the dictionary.
