Consider a manufacturing process with a quality inspection station. In the past, 10% of parts are defective. As soon as one defective part is found, the process is stopped. If 6 parts have been inspected without finding a defective part, what is the probability that at least 9 total parts will be inspected before the process is stopped

Answers

Answer:

0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

10% is equal to 0.1

The probability of having defective parts in a pile of parts is 0.1

Before the process is stopped, 1 part has to be defective.

In a pile of 9 parts, the probability that a part is defective 0.1 of 9, which is = 0.9 hence, approximately one (1) part will be defective in a pile of 9 parts and the process will be stopped.

Since there was no defective part among the first 6 parts, P(d) was 0

That is, probability of a defective part was zero.

Use variation of parameters to find a general solution to the differential equation given that the functions y1 and y2 are linearly independent solutions to the corresponding homogeneous equation for t > 0. ty" + (2t - 1 )y' - 2y = 6t^2 e^-2t​; y1 = 22t −​1, y2 = e^-2t

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y_g(t) = c_1*( 2t - 1 ) + c_2*e^(^-^2^t^) - e^(^-^2^t^)* [ t^3 + \frac{3}{4}t^2 + \frac{3}{4}t ][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Given is the 2nd order linear ODE as follows:

                      [tex]ty'' + ( 2t - 1 )*y' - 2y = 6t^2 . e^(^-^2^t^)[/tex]

- The complementary two independent solution to the homogeneous 2nd order linear ODE are given as follows:

                     [tex]y_1(t) = 2t - 1\\\\y_2 (t ) = e^-^2^t[/tex]

- The particular solution ( yp ) to the non-homogeneous 2nd order linear ODE is expressed as:

                    [tex]y_p(t) = u_1(t)*y_1(t) + u_2(t)*y_2(t)[/tex]

Where,

              [tex]u_1(t) , u_2(t)[/tex] are linearly independent functions of parameter ( t )

- To determine [  [tex]u_1(t) , u_2(t)[/tex] ], we will employ the use of wronskian ( W ).

- The functions [[tex]u_1(t) , u_2(t)[/tex] ] are defined as:

                       [tex]u_1(t) = - \int {\frac{F(t). y_2(t)}{W [ y_1(t) , y_2(t) ]} } \, dt \\\\u_2(t) = \int {\frac{F(t). y_1(t)}{W [ y_1(t) , y_2(t) ]} } \, dt \\[/tex]

Where,

      F(t): Non-homogeneous part of the ODE

      W [ y1(t) , y2(t) ]: the wronskian of independent complementary solutions

- To compute the wronskian W [ y1(t) , y2(t) ] we will follow the procedure to find the determinant of the matrix below:

                      [tex]W [ y_1 ( t ) , y_2(t) ] = | \left[\begin{array}{cc}y_1(t)&y_2(t)\\y'_1(t)&y'_2(t)\end{array}\right] |[/tex]

                      [tex]W [ (2t-1) , (e^-^2^t) ] = | \left[\begin{array}{cc}2t - 1&e^-^2^t\\2&-2e^-^2^t\end{array}\right] |\\\\W [ (2t-1) , (e^-^2^t) ]= [ (2t - 1 ) * (-2e^-^2^t) - ( e^-^2^t ) * (2 ) ]\\\\W [ (2t-1) , (e^-^2^t) ] = [ -4t*e^-^2^t ]\\[/tex]

- Now we will evaluate function. Using the relation given for u1(t) we have:

                     [tex]u_1 (t ) = - \int {\frac{6t^2*e^(^-^2^t^) . ( e^-^2^t)}{-4t*e^(^-^2^t^)} } \, dt\\\\u_1 (t ) = \frac{3}{2} \int [ t*e^(^-^2^t^) ] \, dt\\\\u_1 (t ) = \frac{3}{2}* [ ( -\frac{1}{2} t*e^(^-^2^t^) - \int {( -\frac{1}{2}*e^(^-^2^t^) )} \, dt] \\\\u_1 (t ) = -e^(^-^2^t^)* [ ( \frac{3}{4} t + \frac{3}{8} )] \\\\[/tex]

- Similarly for the function u2(t):

                     [tex]u_2 (t ) = \int {\frac{6t^2*e^(^-^2^t^) . ( 2t-1)}{-4t*e^(^-^2^t^)} } \, dt\\\\u_2 (t ) = -\frac{3}{2} \int [2t^2 -t ] \, dt\\\\u_2 (t ) = -\frac{3}{2}* [\frac{2}{3}t^3 - \frac{1}{2}t^2 ] \\\\u_2 (t ) = t^2 [\frac{3}{4} - t ][/tex]

- We can now express the particular solution ( yp ) in the form expressed initially:

                    [tex]y_p(t) = -e^(^-^2^t^)* [\frac{3}{2}t^2 + \frac{3}{4}t - \frac{3}{8} ] + e^(^-^2^t^)*[\frac{3}{4}t^2 - t^3 ]\\\\y_p(t) = -e^(^-^2^t^)* [t^3 + \frac{3}{4}t^2 + \frac{3}{4}t - \frac{3}{8} ] \\[/tex]

Where the term: 3/8 e^(-2t) is common to both complementary and particular solution; hence, dependent term is excluded from general solution.

- The general solution is the superposition of complementary and particular solution as follows:

                    [tex]y_g(t) = y_c(t) + y_p(t)\\\\y_g(t) = c_1*( 2t - 1 ) + c_2*e^(^-^2^t^) - e^(^-^2^t^)* [ t^3 + \frac{3}{4}t^2 + \frac{3}{4}t ][/tex]

An English teacher needs to pick 10 books to put on her reading list for the next school year, and she needs to plan the order in which they should be read. She has narrowed down her choices to 4 novels, 6 plays, 8 poetry books, and 4 nonfiction books. Step 1 of 2 : If she wants to include no more than 3 poetry books, how many different reading schedules are possible? Express your answer in scientific notation rounding to the hundredths place.

Answers

Answer:

the number of possible reading schedules is 1.064301638 × 10¹²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The English teacher needs to pick 10 books to put on her reading list for the next school year.

If the English teacher picks at most  3 poetry books i.e no  more than 3 poetry books from 8 books. and other books are picked from (6+4+4 ) = 14 books

Thus; the number of ways to pick the books are :

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{c}8\\0\\ \end{array}\right] \ \left[\begin{array}{c}14\\10\\ \end{array}\right]+ \left[\begin{array}{c}8\\1\\ \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}14\\9\\ \end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{c}8\\2\\ \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}14\\8\\ \end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{c}8\\3\\ \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}14\\7 \\ \end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]= [ \dfrac{8!}{0!(8-0)!}* \dfrac{14!}{10!(14-10!)} ] + [ \dfrac{8!}{1!(8-1)!}* \dfrac{14!}{9!(14-9)!}]+ [ \dfrac{8!}{2!(8-2)!}* \dfrac{14!}{8!(14-8)!}] + [ \dfrac{8!}{3!(8-3)!}* \dfrac{14!}{7!(14-7)!}][/tex]

[tex]= [ 1*1001]+[8*2002]+[28*3003]+[56*3432][/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{= 293293}[/tex]

However, to determine how many reading schedules that are possible we use the relation:

Number of ways to pick a book × [tex]^{10}P_{10}[/tex]

[tex]= 293293* \dfrac{10!}{(10-10)!}[/tex]

= 293293 ×  10!

= 1.064301638 × 10¹²

Thus , the number of possible reading schedules is 1.064301638 × 10¹²

In mathematics, the absolute value |x|, is the non-negative result of x without regard to its sign.

An absolute function, can never have a negative result.

By this alone, you can solve the question because the inequality is false, and therefore there are zero solutions.

Please see the attachment of f(x) = |x - 7|.

When you look at the graph, you can easily confirm that there is no value which can result in a negative y- coordinate like -2. In fact, that is the whole purpose of any absolute value or function. The result of an absolute function can never be negative.

What is the probabillity that all the 5 balls drawn from the urn are pink? Round your answer to 3 decimal places. (IF necessary, consult a list of formulas)

Answers

Answer:

2.143

Step-by-step explanation:

An urn contains 8 black and;

6 pink balls.

5 balls are randomly drawn from the urn in succession, with replacement.

What is the probability that all the 5 balls drawn from the urn are pink?

The probability of drawing a pink ball in the first draw is 6/14The probability of drawing a pink ball in the second draw is 6/14The probability of drawing a pink ball in the third draw is 6/14The probability of drawing a pink ball in the fourth draw is 6/14The probability of drawing a pink ball in the fifth draw is 6/14

The probability that all the 5 balls drawn is pink is 5 × 6/14 = 30/14 = 2.143 (rounded off to 3 decimal places)

The probability of drawing 5 pink balls is 0.271

Since the balls are replaced after each draw, the probability of drawing a pink ball each time is always  

6/14

=3/7

Since we are drawing 5 balls, the probability of drawing 5 pink balls with replacement is

[tex](3/7)^{5}[/tex]

≈0.2706

 

Rounding to 3 decimal places, the probability is  0.271

b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
d. It we randomly select 9 adults. Is 1 a significantly low number who day that they were too young to get tattoos?

Answers

Answer:

a) 20.44% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

b) 35.90% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

c) 56.34% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

d) No

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they say they were too young when they got their tattoos, or they don't say that. Each adult is independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

18% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos.

This means that [tex]p = 0.18[/tex]

Eight adults who regret getting tattoos are randomly selected

This means that [tex]n = 8[/tex]

a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

This is P(X = 0).

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{8,0}.(0.18)^{0}.(0.82)^{8} = 0.2044[/tex]

20.44% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

This is P(X = 1).

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

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{8,1}.(0.18)^{1}.(0.82)^{7} = 0.3590[/tex]

35.90% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

Either a. or b.

20.44 + 35.90 = 56.34

56.34% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

d. It we randomly select 9 adults. Is 1 a significantly low number who day that they were too young to get tattoos?

Now [tex]n = 9[/tex]

It is significantly low if it is more than 2.5 standard deviations below the mean.

The mean is [tex]E(X) = np = 9*0.18 = 1.62[/tex]

The standard deviation is [tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{n*p*(1-p)} = \sqrt{9*0.18*0.82} = 1.15[/tex]

1 > (1.62 - 2.5*1.15)

So the answer is no.

2x+y= -18

0-5y= -50

-5y= -50

divide both sides by -5

-5y/5= -50/5

y=10

A textile manufacturer has historically found an average of 0.1 flaws per square meter of cloth. Let X be the number of flaws in a bolt of 2000 square meters of cloth. How is X distributed

Answers

Answer:

Poisson distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

There is an average of 0.1 flaws per square meter of cloth

So X = the number of flaws in a bolt of 2000 square meters of cloth.

The objective is to deduce how is X distributed.

Well, we can say X undergoes Poisson distribution.

Because, the flaw can be randomly positioned on the cloth and also dictate  how many times the event is likely to occur within a specified period of time.

Most time Poisson distribution is majorly used for independent events.

An independent is an event which contains two types of events occuring at a time say event [tex]E_1[/tex] and event [tex]E_2[/tex] and the event [tex]E_1[/tex] does not in any way affects the occurrence of the event [tex]E_2[/tex] .

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways you can solve this. First is to just count all the numbers in the list given that are within the range 15-19. This is an inclusive range meaning the numbers 15 and 19 are a part of it. The second method is to count how many numbers are in the list given and count all the numbers that have already been put on the table. There are 19 total numbers, and 14 have already been counted. If you subtract you are left with 5 numbers that are within the range. So the answer is 5.

Answer:  5

Explanation:

One method is to count all of the values that are between 15 and 19. Those values are highlighted in the diagram below. There are 5 values marked.

An alternative method is to note there are 19 values total. The items in the given table add to 5+2+1+2+4 = 14, so there must be 19-14 = 5 items missing to completely fill out the table.

Determine whether the geometric series 192 + 48 + 12 + ... converges or diverges, and identify the sum if it exists.


A.) Converges: 768

B.) Diverges

C.) Converges; 64

D.) Converges; 256

Answers

Answer:

D.) Converges; 256

Step-by-step explanation:

x0= 192

x1 = 48 = 192/4

x2 = 12 = 192/(4 x 4)

Therefore, this series can be written as:

[tex]x_n = \frac{192}{4^n}[/tex]

Applying limits at infinity:

[tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} x_n= \lim_{n \to \infty} (\frac{192}{4^n}) = \frac{192}{\infty}=0[/tex]

Since the terms of the series tend to zero, we can affirm that the series converges.

The sum of an infinite converging series is:

[tex]S=\frac{x_0}{1-r} \\S=\frac{192}{1-\frac{1}{4} }\\S=256[/tex]

Thus, the answer is D.) Converges; 256

Design and complete a frequency table for Belinda.
Belinda ask 20 people, how many hours of TV did you watch last week?

Here is the results
3,17,4,4,6,11,14,14,1,20,9,8,9,6,12,7,8,13,13,9.
Belinda wants to show these result in a frequency table.
She will use 4 equal groups.
The first group will start with 1 hour and the last group will end with 20 hours.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she will use 4 groups or class intervals, the the class width would be 20/4 = 5 hours

The class groups would be

1 to 5

5 to 10

10 to 15

15 to 20

The class mark for each class is the average of the minimum and maximum value of each class. Therefore, the class marks are

(1 + 5)/2 = 3

(5 + 10)/2 = 7.5

(10 + 15)/2 = 12.5

(15 + 20)/2 = 17.5

The frequency table would be

Class group Frequency

1 - 5 4

5 - 10 8

10 - 15 6

15 - 20 2

The total frequency is 4 + 8 + 6 + 2 = 20

Problem PageQuestion The mass of a radioactive substance follows a continuous exponential decay model, with a decay rate parameter of per day. Find the half-life of this substance (that is, the time it takes for one-half the original amount in a given sample of this substance to decay).

Answers

Answer:

8.55 days for a decay rate parameter of 8.1% per day

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming a decay rate parameter of  8.1% per day

the general equation for radioactive decay is;

N = N₀e^(-λt)

x - decay constant (λ) - rate of decay 

t-  time 

N - amount remaining after t days , since we are calculating the half life, amount of time it takes for the substance to to be half its original value, its N₀/2

N₀ - amount initially present 

substituting the values 

N₀/2 = N₀e^(-0.081t)

0.5 = e^(-0.081t)

ln (0.5) = -0.081t

-0.693 = -0.081t

t = 0.693 / 0.081  = 8.55

half life of substance is 8.55 days

Solve the volume formula V= /wh for h. You're driving a vehicle of mass 850 kg and you need to make a turn on a flat road. The radius of curvature of the turn is 80 m. The maximum horizontal component of the force that the road can exert on the tires is only 0.22 times the vertical component of the force of the road on the tires (in this case the vertical component of the force of the road on the tires is , the weight of the car, where as usual 9.8 N/kg, the magnitude of the gravitational field near the surface of the Earth). The factor 0.22 is called the "coefficient of friction" (usually written "", Greek "mu") and is large for surfaces with high friction, small for surfaces with low friction.(a) What is the fastest speed you can drive and still make it around the turn?
