plate is attached to its base by 6 bolts. Each bolt is inspected before installation, and the
probability of passing the inspection is 0.9. Only bolts that pass the inspection are installed.
Let X denote the number of bolts that are inspected in order to attach one plate. Find the
probability that less than 7 bolts need to be inspected in order to attach the plate. Round
answer to four decimal places.

r =6 and p =
The requested probability is
The difference in length of a spring on a pogo stick from its non-compressed length when a teenager is jumping on it after θ seconds can be described by the function f(θ) = 2sinθ + √2.Part A: Determine all values where the pogo stick's spring will be equal to its non-compressed length. Part B: If the angle was doubled, that is θ became 2θ, what are the solutions in the interval [0, 2π)? How do these compare to the original function?Part C: A toddler is jumping on another pogo stick whose length of its spring can be represented by the function g(θ) = 1 cos^2θ + √2. At what times are the springs from the original pogo stick and the toddler's pogo stick lengths equal?
