Answer from: Tristabergeron5650

0.1150 = 11.50% probability that the sample does not contain any fibers of polymer B

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this question:

Fibers are chosen without replacement, which means that we use the hypergeometric distribution.

92 fibers means that N = 92

Sample of 10 means that n = 10

No polymeter B which means that x = 0

17 fibers of polymeter B which means that k = 17

a. What is the probability that the sample does not contain any fibers of polymer B

This is P(X = 0).

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 0) = h(0,92,10,17) = \frac{C_{17,0}*C_{75,10}}{C_{92,10}} = 0.1150$

0.1150 = 11.50% probability that the sample does not contain any fibers of polymer B

d. $180

step-by-step explanation:

if the dimensions of the room is 9ft by 12 ft, we have the area of the floor as,

$a=9\times 12=108\text {ft^2}$

so the area of the floor is 108 square feet, converting that into square yards we get,

$108 \times 0.1111= 12 \text{yd^2}$

the cost of carpet is $15 per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 12 square yards is,

$\$15 \times 12=\$180$

hence, the cost of carpet is $180.

assuming the dimensions of the room be,

15 ft by 12 ft

so, the area of the floor of that room is,

$a = 12 \times 15=180\text {ft}^2$

we can convert 180 square feet into square yards, we know that,

1 sq ft = 0.111 sq yard

so, 180 square feet is,

$180 \times 0.111=20 \text {yd}^2$

so the area of floor is 20 square yards.

now, the cost of carpet is 15 dollars per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 20 square yards is,

$\$15 \times 20= \$300$

so, it will cost $300.
