Best Answer

You might find the defective ball on the first selection. So the minimum number of chances is 1. If you randomly and repeatedly select and replace the ball, until the defective one is found, the mean number of selections is 9. If you do not replace the balls, the mean number of selections until the defect is found is approximately 4.

What meaning o minimum efficient scale?

Minimum efficient scale (MES) is a term used in industrial organization to denote the smallest output that a plant (or firm) can produce such that its long run average costs are minimized. This concept is useful in determining the likely market structure of a market. For instance, if the minimum efficient scale is small relative to the overall size of the market (demand for the good), there will be a large number of firms. The firms in this market will be likely to behave in a perfectly competitive manor due to the large number of competitors.


How does minimum wage affect the cost of living?

A raise in the minimum wage causes a significant increase in the cost of living. Although less the 1/10 of 1% of people are paid just the minimum wage there are numerous employment contracts tied to that number. An example in a collective bargaining agreement may state a particular job will pay 3,4 or 5 times minimum wage. So if minimum wages increased by 25 cents per hour that contract would automatically pay 75 cents to $1.25 per hour morecausing goods and services to increase in order to compensate.

What is the probability that you choose either a number divisible by 4 or a number divisible by 3?

The chances of you finding a number divisible by 4 is 1/4 (because out of every four numbers, 1 of them is divisible by 4), and a 1/3 chance of finding a number divisible by 3 (see above). If we add them up, we get the chance, 1/4+1/3= 3/12+4/12. Now this would be saying that finding numbers that would be divisible by 12 (the ones divisible by 3 AND 4) would count twice, and we don't want that. To counter this, we have to subtract the chances of you finding a multiple of 12 once (so that the chances of finding the multiple of 12 would count ONCE). This translates to 3/12+4/12-1/12=6/12=1/2. :)
