A box contains 20 DVDs, 4 of which are defective If two DVDs are selected at random (with replacement) from this box, what is the probability that both are defective?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of DVD's in the box = 20

Number of defective DVD's = 4

The probability of picking up a defective DVD = [tex]\frac{4}{20}=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

This DVD is being replaced back. So this does not change the total number of DVD's in the box and the number of defective DVD's in the box.

So again the probability of picking up the second defective DVD = [tex]\frac{4}{20}=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

The probability that both DVD's are defective will be the product of probabilities of individual events i.e.

[tex]\frac{1}{5} \times \frac{1}{5}  = \frac{1}{25}[/tex]

Thus, the probability that both DVDs are defective is 1/25

Answer 2
Final answer:

The probability of selecting two defective DVDs from a box containing 20 DVDs with 4 defective ones, with replacement, is 1/25.

Explanation:

To find the probability that both DVDs are defective, we need to consider the probability of selecting a defective DVD on each trial.

Since the DVDs are selected with replacement, the probability remains constant.

There are 20 DVDs in total, with 4 of them being defective.

So the probability of selecting a defective DVD on the first trial is 4/20 = 1/5.

Similarly, the probability of selecting a defective DVD on the second trial is also 1/5.

To find the probability that both DVDs are defective, we multiply these probabilities together:

Probability = (1/5) * (1/5) = 1/25

A football team loses 4 yards on one play and 7 yards on another play. Write a sum of negative integers to represent this situation. Find the sum and explain how it is related to the problem.

Answers

Answer:

-11 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

the first loss is represented by -4 and the second loss is represented by -7.

The sum of negative numbers will be:

(-4) + (-7) = -11

The sum of negative integers representing the football team's loss of yards on two plays is -4 + (-7), which equals -11 yards. This represents the total yardage lost by the team.

To represent the football team's loss of yards with a sum of negative integers, we can write -4 (for the loss of 4 yards on one play) and -7 (for the loss of 7 yards on another play). The sum would therefore be -4 + (-7).

When two negative numbers add, the answer has a negative sign. Using this rule, we calculate the sum:

-4 + (-7) = -4 - 7 = -11

The sum of -11 represents the total yardage lost by the football team over the two plays. The team has lost 11 yards in total.

a circular native american dwlelling has a diameter of 24 feet. how much are inside the home? use 3.14 for { } (pi)

Answers

Answer :

[tex]A = 452.16 \: {ft}^{2}[/tex]

step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

the diameter:

[tex]d = 24 \: ft[/tex]

The radius :

[tex]r = \frac{diameter}{2}= \frac{24}{2}=12 \: ft[/tex]

[tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex]

Area of a circle is given as

[tex]A = \pi {r}^{2} [/tex]

By substitution,

[tex]A = 3.14( {12}^{2} )[/tex]

[tex]\implies \: A = 3.14 \times 144[/tex]

[tex]\implies \: A = 452.16 \: {ft}^{2} [/tex]

Hence the area of the home is

6z + 3 -4z = 9 help please (7th grade)

Answers

the answer is z=3. hope this helps

First you combine like terms together:

6z + 3 -4z =9

(6-4=2)

Now put everything back in its place:

2z + 3= 9

To get the variable (z) by itself, you have to subtract 3 from both sides of the equal sign:

2z + 3 = 9

-3 -3

Now it should be:

2z = 6

Then the final step is to divide by 2 on both sides of the equal sign.

2z = 6

2 2

Your final answer after this should be:

z = 3

Julianne and Derek made signs for their school spirit week. Julianne made a sign that is 3 1/2 feet long. Derek made a sign that is 5/6 as long as Julianne’s sign. How long is the sign Derek made?

Answers

Answer:

2 2/3 is what I got

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 5/6 from 3 1/2

Final answer:

Derek's sign is 2 feet and 11/12 of a foot long, as we multiply 7/2 (Julianne's sign length in improper fraction) by 5/6 (the length ratio of Derek's sign to Julianne's) to get the answer.

Explanation:

To find the length of the sign Derek made, we need to calculate 5/6 of the length of Julianne's sign. Julianne's sign is 3 1/2 feet long. To facilitate the multiplication, we first convert 3 1/2 feet to an improper fraction, which is 7/2 feet.

Now, we multiply 7/2 (the length of Julianne's sign) by 5/6 (the factor by which Derek's sign is shorter).

(7/2) × (5/6) = 35/12 feet

To simplify 35/12, we divide 35 by 12, which equals 2 with a remainder of 11. Therefore, Derek's sign is 2 feet and 11/12 of a foot, or approximately 2.92 feet long.

Can the following question be considered a statistical question and why or why not?

Do students at Bryan Middle School exercise?

Yes, it specifies the population
No, it does not specify the population
Yes, it anticipates enough variability in responses
No, it does not anticipate enough variability in responses

I'm giving 25 points for this since the people who answered last question similar to this were not smart enough to ask the bloody question maker to add the answers for the multiple choice.

Answers

No it is not, because although it specifies the population, it does not anticipate variability in responses. It is phrased as if the answer is going to be yes or no (100% or 0%), when in reality some students will exercise and some will not.

Final answer:

The question 'Do students at Bryan Middle School exercise?' is not a statistical question because it is a yes/no question that does not anticipate enough variability in responses. A statistical question would allow gathering of varied data which could be analyzed for patterns and insights.

Explanation:

Whether the question "Do students at Bryan Middle School exercise?" can be considered a statistical question depends on its potential to produce a variety of results that can be analyzed. Statistical questions anticipate variability in responses and usually involve a degree of uncertainty that can be measured and analyzed.

To evaluate the provided question, it does specify a population, which is the students at Bryan Middle School. However, the question, as it stands, is a yes/no question and does not necessarily anticipate enough variability in responses. A richer statistical question would allow us to collect data that varies among individuals and potentially reveals patterns, such as "How many hours per week do students at Bryan Middle School exercise?"

Therefore, the answer is 'No, it does not anticipate enough variability in responses.' It is essential in research methods and methodologies to ask questions that lead to data that can be used for meaningful analysis and inference.

suppose you receive a $50 gift certificate to the cityside music and book store. all CDs at the strore cost $9.99, and all books cost $5.99. you want to buy some books and at least one CD.

A. write a system of inequalities for x books and y CDs that describes thia situation

B. graph the system to show all possible solutions

C. what puchase does the ordered pair (2,6) represent? is it a solution to your system? explain.

D. find a solution in which you spend almost all of the gift certificate ​

Answers

A student's question about optimizing spending a $50 gift certificate on books and CDs was addressed by creating a system of inequalities, graphing the possible solutions, explaining why the point (2,6) isn't a solution, and discussing how to almost entirely spend the gift certificate.

Let's address the student's question step by step. Given a $50 gift certificate, a CD costs $9.99 and a book costs $5.99, we need to create a system of inequalities to represent the spending limits with at least one CD purchase (y).

Part A - System of Inequalities

The inequalities can be written as follows:

The total cost of books and CDs must not exceed $50: 5.99x + 9.99y \<= 50

You must buy at least one CD: y \"> or equal to 1

Part B - Graph of the System

Graphing these inequalities will give us a region of possible solutions where any point within that region represents an allowable combination of books (x) and CDs (y).

Part C - Interpretation of the Point (2,6)

The ordered pair (2,6) represents buying 2 books and 6 CDs. To determine if this is a solution, plug the values into the inequalities:

5.99(2) + 9.99(6) = 11.98 + 59.94 = 71.92 which is > 50. So, it's not a solution.

Part D - Maximizing the Gift Certificate

A solution that spends almost all of the gift certificate would be close to the line 5.99x + 9.99y = 50 but does not exceed it. Students would need to find whole number pairs for x and y that satisfy this condition.

Hope this helps!!

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To eliminate the fractions in the equation, multiply all terms by the lowest common multiple of 3 and 6, that is 6

4x + 6 = x - 42 ( subtract x from both sides )

3x + 6 = - 42 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

3x = - 48 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 16

Which of the following equations best represents the trend line for the scatter plot shown below

- Y= 1/3x+8
- Y=3x+5
- Y= 3x+8

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

First start  at your y intercept (5) and use the rise to run ratio (rise 3, run 1) and there is a point on every single one.

1/3 wouldn't work because you rise 1 and go right 3 and that does not match any of the points

Using the two points first gives us a slope of 3

(1, 8) (2, 11)

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (11 - 8)/(2 - 1)

m = 3/1

m = 3

We also know that 8 cannot be the intercept being as it is the point at x = 1. Therefore, we know that y = 3x + 5 must be the only possible answer.
