A chemistry teacher needs to mix a 40%

Let f and e represent the amount of 40% and 80% solutions used...

We are told the f+e=20 which means that f=20-e and we can say that:

(.4f+.8e)/20=.7, using f=20-e in this equation we see that:

.4(20-e)+.8e=14

8-.4e+.8e=14

8+.4e=14

.4e=6

e=15, and since f=20-e then

f=5

So 15 quarts of 80% solution is mixed with 5 quarts of 40% solution to produce a 20 quart mixture of 70% solution.

Find the probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 b
jeka94

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information; Let's assume that  R should represent the set of all possible outcomes generated from  a bit string of length 10 .

So; as each place is fitted with either 0 or 1

\mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}

Similarly; the event E signifies the randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0

Now;

if  a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely

The probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely is;

\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{|E|}{|R|}}

so ; if bits string should not contain a 0 and all other places should be occupied by 1; Then:

\mathbf{{|E|}=1 }   ; \mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}

\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{1}{2^{10}}}
