A complicated mechanical system contains 8 components. If there is a 18% chance that each component will fail during processing, and components fail independently of each other, then
(a) What is the probability that fewer than 3 components will fail?
(b) What is the meet likely number of failures?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The probability that fewer than 3 components will fail is  0.8392.

(b) The mean likely number of failures is 1.44.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a complicated mechanical system contains 8 components. If there is an 18% chance that each component will fail during processing, and components fail independently of each other.

Let X = Number of components fail during processing

The above situation can be represented through the binomial distribution;

[tex]P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r}\times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r} ;x=0,1,2,.....[/tex]

where, n = number of samples (trials) taken = 8 components

            r = number of success = fewer than 3 components will fail

           p = probability of success which in our question is the probability

                 that each component will fail during processing, i.e. p = 18%

SO, X ~ Binom(n = 8, p = 0.18)

(a) The probability that fewer than 3 components will fail is given by = P(X < 3)

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

= [tex]\binom{8}{0}\times 0.18^{0} \times (1-0.18)^{8-0}+ \binom{8}{1}\times 0.18^{1} \times (1-0.18)^{8-1}+ \binom{8}{2}\times 0.18^{2} \times (1-0.18)^{8-2}[/tex]

= [tex]1 \times 1 \times 0.82^{8}+ 8 \times 0.18^{1} \times 0.82^{7}+28 \times 0.18^{2} \times 0.82^{6}[/tex]

= 0.8392

(b) The mean likely number of failures is given by the following formula;

      Mean of X, E(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p

                                 = [tex]8 \times 0.18[/tex] = 1.44

Hence, the mean likely number of failures is 1.44.

1) f(x) = 2x + 4, g(x) = 4x2 + 1; Find (g ∘ f)(0).

Answers

Answer:

[tex](g \: \circ \: f)(0) = 17[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x + 4

g(x) = 4x² + 1

In order to find (g ∘ f)(0) we must first find

(g ° f )(x)

To find (g ° f )(x) substitute f(x) into g(x) that's for every x in g(x) replace it with f(x)

That's

[tex](g \: \circ \: f)(x) = 4( ({2x + 4})^{2} ) + 1 \\ = 4(4 {x}^{2} + 16x + 16) + 1 \\ = {16x}^{2} + 64x + 16 + 1[/tex]

We have

[tex](g \: \circ \: f)(x) = {16x}^{2} + 64x + 17 \\ [/tex]

Now to find (g ∘ f)(0) substitute the value of x that's 0 into (g ∘ f)(0)

We have

[tex](g \: \circ \: f)(0) = 16( {0})^{2} + 64(0) + 17 \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex](g \: \circ \: f)(0) = 17[/tex]

jess purchased a full tank of gas on thursday.on friday,he took a road trip and used 1/2 of the tank.on saturday,he did some errands and use an 1/3 additional of the tank.how much gas does jess have left?​

Answers

Answer:

1/3 of the gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - 1/2 = 1/2

1/3 - 3/3 = 2/3

2/3 ( 1/2 ) = 1/3

The amount of gas left with Jess is given by the equation A = 1/6 of the total gas

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the total amount of the gas be represented as A

Now , the equation will be

The amount of gas utilized by Jess on Friday = 1/2 of the initial gas

So , The amount of gas left on Friday = A - ( 1/2 ) A

On simplifying the equation , we get

The amount of gas left on Friday = ( 1/2 )A

Now ,

Amount of gas utilized by Jess on Saturday = ( 1/3 ) of the remaining gas

On simplifying the equation , we get

The remaining gas = ( 1/2 ) A - ( 1/3 ) A

So , the remaining amount of gas with Jess = ( 1/6 ) of the total gas

Hence , the equation is ( 1/6 ) of the total gas is remaining

Qualitative variable.

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

In research we have two types of variables: the quantitative and the qualitative variables.

A quantitative variable is a variable that is a number, for example: age, height, number of years of school. These type of variables are only numbers.A qualitative variable is a variable that is not a number but rather a category of data. For example: your name, your gender, your favorite food. All these examples are not numbers but categories.

In this example we are asked about our favorite city, we can see that the possible answers for this question are: Dallas, Seattle, Washington, Paris, etc.. these are not numbers so therefore this is an example of qualitative variable.

Suppose at your birth your parents bought you a savings certificate that had a locked-in interest rate, compounded continuously. All you know is that the value of the certificate was $1,866.79 when you were 9 years old and $3,350.87 when you were 18. How much did your parents put into the certificate at your birth?
a) $1, 020.
b) 8960.
c) $1, 040.
d) 8980.

Answers

Answer:

Option C : P = $1040

Step-by-step explanation:

Using formula for continuous compounding, we have;

FV = Pe^(rt)

Where;

FV is the future value

P is the starting principal

r is the interest rate

t is time period

Now, from the question;

After 9 years, value is 1,866.79

Hence;

Pe^(9r) = 1,866.79 - - - eq1

Also, after 18 years;

Pe^(18r) = $3,350.87

Now, from exponential functions,

e^(4) can be written as (e^(2))²

Thus,in our case, e^(18r) can simply be written as (e^(9r))²

Thus, we can write Pe^(18r) = $3,350.87 as;

P(e^(9r))² = 3,350.87 - - - eq3

Thus, dividing eq 1 by eq 3 gives;

P(e^(9r))²/Pe^(9r) = 3350.87/1866.79

e^(9r) = 1.794990331

So;

In 1.794990331 = 9r

r = 0.585/9

r = 0.065

Putting this for r in equation 1 gives;

Pe^(9 × 0.065) = 1,866.79

1.795P = 1,866.79

P = 1866.79/1.795

P = $1040

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the uploaded image  

Answer:

1 ) The correct option B

2) The correct option is  C

3)  The correct option is  C

4)  The correct option is  C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The proportion that own a cell phone  is  [tex]p = 0.90[/tex]

    The  sample  size is  n =  15

Generally the appropriate distribution for X is mathematically  represented as

      [tex]X \ is \ B( n , p )[/tex]

So  

       [tex]X \ is \ B( 15 , 0.90 )[/tex]

Generally the number students that  own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is mathematically represented as

              [tex]\mu = n * p[/tex]

              [tex]\mu = 15 * 0.90[/tex]

              [tex]\mu = 13.5[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation of the number of students who own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is mathematically represented as

                [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ n * p * q }[/tex]

Where  q is mathematically evaluated as

          [tex]q = 1- p[/tex]

           [tex]q = 1- 0.90[/tex]

           [tex]q = 0.10[/tex]

            [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ 15 * 0.90 * 0.10 }[/tex]

            [tex]\sigma = 1.16[/tex]

Generally the probability that all students in a simple random sample of 15 students own a cell phone is mathematically represented as

   [tex]P(X = 15) = \left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} * p^{15} * q^{15 - 15}[/tex]    

     [tex]P(X = 15) = \left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} * (0.90)^{15} * (0.10 )^{15 - 15}[/tex]

From the combination calculator  is      [tex]\left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} = 1[/tex]

     [tex]P(X = 15) = 1 * 0.205891 * 1[/tex]

      [tex]P(X = 15) = 0.206[/tex]

The appropriate distribution for X is M(15, 0.9).

On average 1.345 students will own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students.

The standard deviation of the number of students who own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is 1.16.

The probability that all students in a simple random sample of 15 students own a cell phone is 0.206.

Given that,

The proportion of students who own a cell phone on college campuses across the country has increased tremendously over the past few years.

It is estimated that approximately 90% of students now own a cell phone. Fifteen students are to be selected at random from a large university.

Assume that the proportion of students who own a cell phone at this university is the same as nationwide.

According to the question,

Let X = the number of students in the sample of 15 who own a cell phone.

1. The appropriate distribution for X is,

the sample size is n equals 15 and the proportion of the cell phone is 90% = 0.9.

The appropriate distribution for X is M(15, 0.9).

2. On average students will own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is,

[tex]\mu = n \times p\\\\\mu = 15 \times 0.9\\\\\mu = 1.345[/tex]

On average 1.345 students will own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students.

3. The standard deviation of the number of students who own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is,

[tex]\rm \sigma = \sqrt{n \times p \times q}\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{n \times p \times (1-q)}\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{15 \times 0.9 \times (1-0.9)}\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{15 \times 0.9 \times 0.1}\\\\\sigma = 1.16[/tex]

The standard deviation of the number of students who own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is 1.16.

4. The probability that all students in a simple random sample of 15 students own a cell phone is,

[tex]\rm P(X=15) = 15_C_{15} \times p^{15} \times q^{15-15}\\\\P(X=15) = 1 \times (0.90)^{15 }\times (0.10)^0\\\\P(X=15) = 1 \times 0.206\times 1\\\\P(X=15) = 0.206[/tex]
