<span>A certain airplane has two independent alternators to provide electrical power. the probability that a given alternator will fail on a one-hour flight is 0.019.  

This is a binomial probability situation, since it's "pass or fail."  The prob. of failure is 0.019.  Since the alternators are separate and independent, the prob. that two will fail is the product of 0.019 and 0.019, or 3.61 to the power -4 of 10.  The latter can also be written as 0.000361.

The probability that one alternator will fail is 1-0.019, or 0.981.
The probability that neither alternator will fail is (0.981)^2=0.9624 (to four decimal place accuracy).

</span><span>What is the probability that at least one fails?  This probability is equal to the complement of the probability that ONE will fail, which on the TI 84 Plus can be calculated as 1-binompdf(2,0.981,0), which comes out to 0.000361. </span>

Help pls ill love you forever
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

y-4=\frac{1}{5}(x-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a line is given by:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Where

(x_1,y_1) is the coordinate pair (any of the points given)

m is the slope. The ratio of change in y coordinates by x coordinates

Let's calculate the slope:

m=\frac{4-3}{7-2}\\m=\frac{1}{5}

Now, it is given "y - 4", so y_1 is 4, so they are using the coordinate pair (7,4). So we can say x_1 = 7

Now we have all the values, lets write the equation:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-4=\frac{1}{5}(x-7)

This is the point-slope form.

Two groups went bowling. Here are the scores from each group.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Group A has greater variability

Step-by-step explanation:

Group A: 80, 100, 190, 110, 70, 90, 130

The variability of group A data :

Taking the range :

Maximum  = 190 ; Minimum = 70

Range = Maximum - Minimum ; 190 - 70 = 120

Group B : 50, 110, 100, 120, 107, 140, 150

The variability of group B data :

Taking the range :

Maximum  = 150 ; Minimum = 50

Range = Maximum - Minimum ; 150 - 50 = 100

Hence, Group A has greater variability
