Flaws in a certain type of drapery material appear on the average of one in 150 square feet. If we assume a Poisson distribution, find the probability of at least one flaw appearing in 300 square feet.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the Poisson distribution, it is found that there is a 0.8647 = 86.47% probability of at least one flaw appearing in 300 square feet.

What is the Poisson distribution?

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successese = 2.71828 is the Euler number[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Flaws in a certain type of drapery material appear on the average of one in 150 square feet, hence, considering 300 square feet, the mean is of:

[tex]\mu = \frac{300}{150} \times 1 = 2[/tex]

The probability of at least one flaw appearing in 300 square feet is given by:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-2}2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1353[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - 0.1353 = 0.8647[/tex]

0.8647 = 86.47% probability of at least one flaw appearing in 300 square feet.

8-4-1.3=2.7
2.7 is the amount of blueberry juice used for one 8 ounce fruit smoothies so to get ten of them you multiply by 10
So 2.7x10=27 ounces of blueberry juice
1.3x10=13 ounces of banana flavoring

find the value of x

2x - 2 = 4x + 6​

Answers

Answer:

or, 2x=4x+8

or, -2x=8

or, x=-4

Given Equation :-

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \pink{\bf \longrightarrow 2x -2 = 4x +6} [/tex]

Let's overturn the equation –

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow 4x +6 = 2x -2 [/tex]

Subtract 2x from both side –

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow 4 x +6 -2x = 2x -2 -2x[/tex]

Cancel 2x from right side & also simplify this equation

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow 4 x +6 -2x =\cancel{ 2x} -2 -\cancel{2x}[/tex]

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow 2x +6 = -2 [/tex]

Now, subtract 6 from both side

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow 2x +6 -6 = -2-6[/tex]

Once again, cancel 6 from left side –

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow 2x +\cancel{6} -\cancel{6} = -2-6[/tex]

On simplification –

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow 2x = -8[/tex]

Now, divide both sides by 2

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow \dfrac{2x}{2} = \dfrac{-8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow \dfrac{\cancel{2}x}{\cancel{2}} =\cancel{ \dfrac{-8}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \pink{\bf \longrightarrow x = -4} [/tex]

Henceforth, value of x is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) when x is increasing, the function is decreasing

2)

The wording is a bit weird and I think the "for the next 10 hours." is extra infomation. so 3*5=15 degress dropped. 75-15=60

3) when it is the y intercept, x is equal to 0

2y=8

x=4
(0,4) is the y-intercept

Variance is average of squared error of observations from mean. The variance of given data is 5.2

How to calculate variance of a given data set?

Variance is average of squared error of observations from mean.

If the data set is composed of n elements,its ith element is [tex]x_i[/tex] , and mean of the data set is [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] ,

then its variance is given as:

[tex]\sigma^2 = \dfrac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n(x_i-\overline{x})^2[/tex]

The given data set is 4,7,4,10,5

Thus, n = 5 (total 5 observations (data values) )

Their mean is [tex]\overline{x} = 6[/tex] (it is taken as 'm', but for ease with formula, take it as [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] )

Thus, their variance is calculated as:

[tex]\sigma^2 = \dfrac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n(x_i-\overline{x})^2 \\\\\sigma^2 = \dfrac{(4-6)^2 + (7-6)^2 + (4-6)^2 + (10-6)^2 +(5 - 6)^2}{5} \\\\\sigma^2 = \dfrac{4 + 1 + 4 + 16 + 1}{5} = \dfrac{26}{5} = 5.2[/tex]

The equation for the pH of a substance is pH = –log[H ], where H is the concentration of hydrogen ions. Which equation models the concentration of hydrogen ions (H ) of a solution whose pH is 7. 2?.

Answers

Equation models the concentration of hydrogen ions (H ) of a solution whose pH is 7.2 is,

[tex][H^+ ]=\dfrac{1}{10^{7.2}}[/tex]

What is pH value?

The pH value is the measurement of the water, as it is acidic or basic in nature and amount of it. If the value of pH value is more than 7, the water is basic in nature and if less than 7, the water is acidic.

Given information-

The equation for the pH of a substance is,

[tex]pH = -\log[H^+ ],[/tex]

Here, [tex]H[/tex]hydrogen ions.

The pH value of the solution is 7.2.

The pH value of the solution is given, and the concentration of hydrogen ions has to be find out (in equation model form).

The given equation for pH of the substance is,

[tex]pH = -\log[H^+ ],[/tex]

It can be written as,

[tex]-pH = \log[H^+ ],[/tex]

The pH value of the solution is 7.2. Put the value as,

[tex]-7.2 = \log[H^+ ][/tex]

Rewrite the above equation as,

[tex]\log[H^+ ]=-7.2[/tex]

Using the log property the, above equation can be written as,

[tex][H^+ ]=10^{-7.2}[/tex]

Solve it further as,

[tex][H^+ ]=\dfrac{1}{10^{7.2}}[/tex]

[tex][H^+ ]=6.3095\times10^{-8}[/tex]

Thus, equation models the concentration of hydrogen ions (H ) of a solution whose pH is 7.2 is,

[tex][H^+ ]=\dfrac{1}{10^{7.2}}[/tex]
