Let us suppose Christmas lights have a total of 120 bulbs in a set, each with a 99.9% reliability rating. What is the probability that a set all works?

Answers

Answer 1

The probability that a set of all bulbs work is 0.88.

What is called as the total probability?

The total probability rule (also known as the Law of Total Probability) divides probability calculations into discrete steps.

It's used to calculate the probability of an event, A, once you don't know enough about A's probabilities to do so directly. Instead, you use a related event, B, to calculate the probability of A.Two events are considered independent if a occurrence of one does not affect the likelihood of occurrence of the other.

Now, as per the question;

The total number of bulbs be 120 and each bulb is working as independent event.

The reliability of each bulb is 99.9% = 0.999

Let 'p' the probability the bulb will work.

The probability that all will work = p¹²⁰

The probability that all will work = (0.999)¹²⁰ = 0.886

Thus, the probability that all bulb will work is 88.6%.

Answer: width =

Answers

The width of rectangle is 20 cm

As is seen in the picture, there are 6 squares at the length of rectangle and 4 squares at the width of rectangle. Also, as per the known fact, each side of square is same. So, we will find the side of square to calculate width of rectangle.

Length of rectangle = 6 × side of square

Side of square = 30 ÷ 6

Side of square = 5 cm

Width of rectangle = 4 × side of square

Width of rectangle = 4 × 5

Width of rectangle = 20 cm

Hence, the width of rectangle is 20 cm.

Find the partial sum sn of the geometric sequence that satisfies the given conditions. a3 = 36, a6 = 288, n = 5

Answers

The value of the partial sum of geometric sequence with terms a3 = 36 and a6 = 288 is given by 297. This is obtained by using the concept of partial sum of a geometric progression.

What is geometric progression?

Geometric progression is defined as a series of numbers having a fixed ratio between each term and its preceding term. It is also known as a geometric sequence or G.P., and is exemplified as a1, a2, a3, ….., an

Here, the first term is denoted by a1 and its common ratio is shown by r, which is calculated using the formula a2 by a1. The partial sum of a G.P. is given by a1 ( rn - 1 ) / ( r - 1 ), when r > 1 and a1 ( 1 - rn ) / ( 1 - r ), when r < 1

Calculation of the partial sum of the geometric sequence that satisfies the given conditions. a3 = 36, a6 = 288, n = 5

Given:

Value of a3 = 36

Value of a6 = 288

n = 5

a3 = ar2           — 1

a6 = ar5

Now, a6 / a3 = ar5 / ar2 = 288 / 36

r3 = 8

Taking cube root both sides, we get,

r = 2

Putting the value of r in equation 1,

a3 = a(2)2

36 = 4a

a = 9

As r > 1, using the formula for Sn as a(rn - 1) / (r - 1)

Sn = 9(2n - 1) / (2 - 1)

Sn = 9(2n - 1)

Using n = 5, we have,

Sn = 9[(2)5 - 1]

Sn = 9(32 - 1)

Sn = 9 × 33

Sn = 297

Hence, the value of the partial sum of a G.P. is 297

Solve the following system of equations.
5 a-b=17
3 a+2 b=5

Answers

Answer:

a = 3 , b = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5a + b = 17 → (1)

3a + 2b = 5 → (2)

multiplying (1) by 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate b

10a + 2b = 34 → (3)

add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate b

13a + 0 = 39

13a = 39 ( divide both sides by 13 )

a = 3

substitute a = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for b

substituting into (1)

5(3) + b = 17

15 - b = 17 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

- b = 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

b = - 2

then solution is a = 3 , b = - 2

The mean of the data set is 37.30

The mean of teachers ages are 37.30.

Given that

Ages of teachers:

            29, 38, 39, 26, 29, 29, 39, 77, 38, 29

To find

The Mean of teachers ages ?

So, according  to the question

We have,

Ages of teachers:             29, 38, 39, 26, 29, 29, 39, 77, 38, 29

So, we know that

The mean of any given data

               mean = [tex]\frac{sum\;of\;\;data}{number\;of\;data}[/tex]

So, the sum of the teachers ages

                   ∑ Ta =  29+ 38+ 39+ 26+ 29+ 29+ 39+ 77+ 38+ 29

                   ∑ Ta =  373

The number of teachers

                     Tn =  10        

Now, The Mean of teachers ages

                     Tm =  [tex]\frac{sum\;of\;the\;teachers\;ages}{number\;of\;teachers}[/tex]

                     Tm =  [tex]\frac{T_a}{T_n}[/tex]

                            =  [tex]\frac{373}{10}[/tex]

                     Tm  =  37.30

The mean of teachers ages are 37.30.

Answers

Multicollinearity refers to the degree of correlation among independent variables in a regression model.

What is Multicollinearity?

In a multiple regression model, one predictor variable can be predicted linearly from the others using a high degree of accuracy when there is a phenomenon known as multicollinearity (also known as collinearity). In this case, minor adjustments to the model or the data may cause the multiple regression's coefficient estimates to fluctuate unpredictably. Multicollinearity only impacts calculations pertaining to specific predictors; it has no impact on the predictive capability or reliability of the model as a whole, at least within the sample data set. In other words, a multivariate regression model with collinear predictors can show how well the complete set of predictors predicts the outcome variable, but it could not provide accurate information about any particular predictor or which predictors are redundant in relation to others.

What are the area and the perimeter of a rectangle?

Considering a rectangle of length l and width w, we have that the area and the perimeter are given, respectively, by:

Area: A = lw.Perimeter: P = 2(l + w).

For this problem, we have these following constraints:

A = 24,000.100 < l or w < 1000.l or w < 100. (the side that is not used for the above constraint).

Attributing w = 500, we can apply the area's formula to find the desired width, as follows.

A = lw

500l = 24000

l = 24000/500

l = 48 ft.
