A system has 4 components. We want to find the probability that in some implementation of this system components #1 and #2 fail,

and at least one of components #3 and #4 fails as well. (a) Compute this probability under the following two assumptions • component #x fails 25% of the times and component #y fails 30% of the times, where x = 1, 2 and y = 3, 4, • the components fail independently of one another.

Answer:

The probability that components #1 and #2 fail,  and at least one of components #3 and #4 fails is 0.031875

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the following events,

F1: Component #1 fails

F2: Component #2 fails

F3: Component #3 fails

F4: Component #4 fails

We are looking for the following probability

P[(F1∩F2)∩(F3∪F4)]

using distributive laws we have

P[(F1∩F2)∩(F3∪F4)] = P[(F1∩F2∩F3)∪(F1∩F2∩F4)] = P(F1∩F2∩F3) + P(F1∩F2∩F4) - P(F1∩F2∩F3∩F4) = P(F1)P(F2)P(F3) + P(F1)P(F2)P(F4) - P(F1)P(F2)P(F3)P(F4) = (0.25)(0.25)(0.3) + (0.25)(0.25)(0.3) - (0.25)(0.25)(0.3)(0.3)=0.031875

by the assumption of independence (the components fail independently) and because P(F1) = P(F2) = 0.25, P(F3) = P(F4) = 0.3

What can you say about the continuous function that generated the following table of values?
scoundrel [369]

Option C. The function that has the table here has  exactly one x-intercept.

<h3>How to find the intercept</h3>

As the signs of the functions are changing, we can see that there is a crossing to the x axis.

This tells us that the zero value that we see is the x intercept and there is no other x intercept in the question.

Leonardo wrote an equation that has an infinite number of solutions. One of the terms in Leonardo's equation is missing, as show
Tanya [424]

Answer:

The missing term is 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-(x - 1) + 5 = 2(x + 3) - _

Required

Find _

For proper identification of the parameters, represent _ with Z

So, the equation becomes

-(x - 1) + 5 = 2(x + 3) - Z

Open bracket (start from the left hand side)

-x + 1 + 5 = 2(x + 3) - Z

-x + 1 + 5 = 2x + 6 - Z

Solve like terms

-x + 6 = 2x + 6 - Z

Subtract 6 from both sides

-x + 6 - 6 = 2x + 6 - 6 - Z

-x = 2x - Z

Subtract 2x from both sides

-x - 2x = 2x - 2x - Z

-3x = -Z

Multiply both sides by -1

-3x * -1 = -Z * -1

3x = Z

Reorder

Z = 3x

Hence, the missing term is 3x

Answer:

C. 576 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the garden has a perimeter of 72feet and the lengths of each of the sides are lengthened by a factor of 8.

Perimeter of the enlarged garden = perimeter before enlargement x enlargement factor

That’s 72 x 8

576feet
