Answer 1
Answer: The words at least means that the worker needs to work 8, 9 or 10 hours. We can add probabilities, so we will add .6 (for those working 8 hours), .15 (for those working 9 hours) and .08 (for those working 10 hours) to get a total probability of .83.
Answer 2

.84 would be the answer

In a video game, two golfers tee off at hole 6, which has the coordinates (–32, –27). Golfer A’s ball lands at (–43, –18). Golfer B’s ball lands at (–44, –16). Which golfer hit the longer shot?

Answers

Answer:

Golfer B's hit the longer shot.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a video game, two golfers tee off at hole 6

Position of hole at (-32,-27)

Golfer A's ball lands at (-43,-18)

Golfer B's balls lands at (-44,-16)

Distance formula:

d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)

Distance of shot of Golfer A's =√((-32+43)^2+(-27+18)^2)=√(11^2+9^2)\approx 14.21

Distance of shot of Golfer B's =√((-32+44)^2+(-27+16)^2)=√(12^2+11^2)\approx 16.28

16.28 > 14.21

Golfer B's shot > Golfer A's shot

Hence, Golfer B's hit the longer shot.

Using Pythagoras' theorem, you can work out the distance the balls travelled.
Golfer A: -43 - -32 = -43 + 32 = -11
-27 - -16 = -27 + 16 = -11
a² + b² = c²
(-11)² + (-11)² = √242 = 15.556

Golfer B: -44 - -32 = -44 + 32 =  -12
-27 - -16 = -27 + 16 = -11
a² + b² = c²
(-11)² + (-12)² = √265 = 16.278

∴ B hit the longest shot. 

MDM4U11. Avery and Bradley work at a large electronics manufacturer that produces DVD players. The
defective rate on the assembly line has gone up to 12% and the manager wants to know the
probability that a skid of 50 DVD players will contain at least 3 defective units.
a) Help Avery use the binomial distribution P(x)=, C.pqrs to answer this question

Answers

Answer:

0.9487

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The probability of having a defective product = p = 12% = 0.12

The probability of not having a defective product = q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.12 = 0.88

The number of DVD players = n = 50

X is the number of defective products.

The  probability that a skid of 50 DVD players will contain at least 3 defective units = P(X ≥ 3) = 1 - P(X ≤ 2)

P(X ≤ 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

Using binomial:

P(X = 0) = C(n,x)p^xq^(n-x)=C(50,0)p^0q^(50-0)=(50!)/((50-0)!0!)*0.12^0*0.88^(50-0)=0.0017

P(X = 1) = C(n,x)p^xq^(n-x)=C(50,1)p^1q^(50-1)=(50!)/((50-1)!1!)*0.12^1*0.88^(50-1)=0.0114

P(X = 2) = C(n,x)p^xq^(n-x)=C(50,2)p^2q^(50-2)=(50!)/((50-2)!2!)*0.12^2*0.88^(50-2)=0.0382

P(X ≤ 2)= 0.0017 + 0.0114 + 0.0382 = 0.0513

P(X ≥ 3) = 1 - P(X ≤ 2) = 1 - 0.0513 = 0.9487 = 94.87%

The function f(x)=600+2x over x yields the average cost in dollars for a company to produce x calendars. Which statement best fits the situation modeled by the function? a) The company spends $600 on a new computer and printer before beginning the project.
b) The company takes 600 photos before selecting which ones to use for its calendars.
c) The company expects to sell 600 calendars each month.
d) The company will sell the calendars for $6.00 each.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is a.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average cost function is

f(x)=(600+2x)/(x)

Where x is the number of calendars produced.

The average cost formula is

AC=\frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Number of items}}

Therefore the total cost is defined b the function

g(x)=600+2x

Here 600 is the initial cost and the cost each unit is 2.

Initial cost is the fixed cost which occurs at zero level of productivity.

The company spends $600 on a new computer and printer before beginning the project. The option (a) is correct.

The function f(x)=600+2x over x yields the average cost in dollars for a company to produce x calendars. The statement best fits the situation modeled by the function "The company spends $600 on a new computer and printer before beginning the project.". The answer is letter A.

Answers

2) Your answer is correct. It is B. 70.9%
4) We can round 81.25% to 80 and 21 shots to 20. 20 x 0.8 = 16.
The answer is A. about 16
5) Your answer is correct. 48% is almost half; half of $20 is $10, so the answer is D.
6) Your answer is correct, C. 15% x 100 = $15
7) The proportion 50/100 = x/70 can help solve this. The answer will be 35.
8) We simply do:
15/50 x 100 = 3/10 x 100 = 30%
9) You are correct, C. 0.3 x 60 = 18
