Suppose that 1% of (binary) bits received by your smartphone have errors. What is the probability that the 28th bit received by

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events

The probability that the first erroneous bit is the 28 bit is 0.0076

<h3>How to determine the probability</h3>

The given parameter is:

p =1% --- the probability that a bit has errors

The probability that the first erroneous bit is the 28 bit means that the first 27 bits do not have errors.

So, we have:

Pr = (1 - p)^{27} * p

The equation becomes

Pr = (1 - 1\%)^{27} * 1\%

Evaluate

Pr = 0.0076

Hence, the probability that the first erroneous bit is the 28 bit is 0.0076

Point P lies on circle C, x^2+y^2=36. There are two unique tangents to circle D, x^2+y^2=18 that pass through point p. What is t
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle C has radius √36 = 6

Circle D has radius √18 = 3√2

As the D radius intersecting either point of tangency, does so at a right angle.

The half angle θ between the tangents is

sinθ = 3√2 / 6 = ½√2

θ = 45°

so the angle between the tangents is 2(45) = 90°
