Using the probability concept, we have that:

a) It would not be unusual to observe one component​ fail, since the probability that one component​ fails is greater than 0.05.

b) It would be unusual to observe two components​ fail, since the probability that two components​ fail is less than 0.05.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>. If a probability is less than 0.05, the event is considered unusual.

In this problem, the probabilities are given as follows:

  • 0.21 probability that one component fails, hence not unusual.
  • (0.21)² = 0.0441 probability that two components fail, hence unusual.

Expand out, this literally just wants you to multiply everything by -1.
so 7*-1 = -7
-c*-1 = c 
thus putting them together to get -7+c which is just c-7

maria purchased a new jacket for 78.12. the orginal price of the jacket was discounted 20% and Maria had to pay 5% sales tax. wh
prohojiy [21]
20 percent of the discount minus 5 percent sales tax equals to 15 percent.
know calculate the 15 percentage out of 78,12 so x on 78,12 equals to 20 on 100 so 78,12 equals to 100 percent and x equals to 15 percent so 78,12 times 15 divided by 100 is 15 percent or the number you found discount and and sales tax combined know you substact 15 percent out of your original price.
