Answer: 0.145
Step-by-step explanation:
Since,
the Probability of the older pump failing P(fail older) = 0.10
The probability of the newer pump failing P(fail newer) = 0.05
Therefore,
The Probability of the older pump not failing P(not fail older) = 1 - 0.1
P(not fail older) = 0.9
Also,
The probability of the newer pump not failing P(not fail newer) = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95
The probability of the pumping system failing = P(not fail older)* P(not fail newer) = 0.9*0.95
P(not fail system)= 0.855
Therefore,
The probability that the pumping system will fail = 1 - P(not fail system) = 1 - 0.855 = 0.145
The probability that the pumping system will fail one day is 0.145
Answer:
Use the value for the variable to solve for the other unknowns. Substitute the value for the variable into the expression for the number of seats on the middle level. Substitute the value for the variable into the expression for the number of seats on the lower level.
4 weeks at 7 days per week = (4 x 7) = 28 days
28/-14 = - 2....so the average change is -2 per day
I'll help on 12. You know that 5*5 is 25. therefore what times 5 equals 20?
N = 20, the number of questions
p = 1/5 = 0.2, the probability of making a correct guess
q = 1 - p = 0.8, the probability of making an incorrect guess.
Expected success = 60% or 6 of 10.
From the binomial distribution,
P(6 of 10) = ₁₀C₆ p⁶q⁴
= 210*0.2⁶*0.8⁴ = 0.0055
Answer: 0.0055
