A boiler has five identical relief valves. The probability that any particular valve will open on demand is 0.93. Assume indepen
noname [10]

Answer:

There is a 99.99998% probability that at least one valve opens.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each valve there are only two possible outcomes. Either it opens on demand, or it does not. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

n = 5, p = 0.93

Calculate P(at least one valve opens).

This is P(X \geq 1)

Either no valves open, or at least one does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So:

P(X = 0) + P(X \geq 1) = 1

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)

So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.93)^{0}.(0.07)^{5} = 0.0000016807

Finally

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0000016807 = 0.9999983193

There is a 99.99998% probability that at least one valve opens.

Solve the equation.
Levart [38]

Answer:

x=34

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3

Subtract 6 from each side

6-6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3-6

- ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = -3

Divide each side by a negative

 ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3

Cube each side

 ( x-7) ^ 1/3 ^3 = (3)^3

x-7 = 27

Add 7 to each side

x-7+7 = 27+7

x = 34

Check

6 - ( 34-7) ^ 1/3 = 3

6 - (27^1/3 = 3

6 -3 =3

3=3

Good solution

Answer:

Figure 2 and figure 4

Yes I agree with Tyler

A

C
D

Step-by-step explanation:

Figures 2 and 4 are not slanted which changes the original form, unlike the others.

I agree with Tyler because the size is not only smaller but it says that it was scaled by 2 more centimeters than the original figure.

I believe its the others because the other one is scaled upwards unlike the rest.

The base of an isosceles tiangle has a length of 25. what can you say about the lengths of the legs?
lidiya [134]
The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side (or else, it can't be a closed polygon). Since we know that the two sides in question are both of the same length in this case (since the triangle isosceles), their individual lengths must be greater than 25/2 = 12.5.

hodyreva [135]
Cole can learn how to play tennis. But if he saved the money, he can save up and get something bigger, or save up for college. There is only so much he can do with a tennis racket except for using it to learn a new sport.
