Answer:

$20 \: ft^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the volume of 1 pontoon first.

Volume of pontoon

= volume of cylinder + 1 sphere

(since there are 2 hemispheres in total)

Volume of cylinder= $\pi {r}^{2} h$

Volume of sphere= $\frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3}$

Radius= 1÷2

Radius= 0.5 ft

Volume of cylinder

$= \pi(0.5)^{2} (12) \\ = 3\pi \: {ft}^{3}$

Volume of sphere

$= \frac{4}{3} \pi(0.5)^{3} \\ = \frac{1}{6} \pi \: {ft}^{3}$

Volume of 1 pontoon

$= 3\pi + \frac{1}{6} \pi \\ =\frac{19}{6} \pi$

Total volume of 2 pontoons

$= 2(\frac{19}{6} \pi) \\ = \frac{19}{3}\pi \\ = 20 \: {ft}^{3}$

(nearest whole number)

Memory module consists of 9 chips. The device is designed with redundancy so that it works even if one of its chips is defective

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

a) $P[C]=p^n$

b) $P[M]=p^{8n}(9-8p^n)$

c) n=62

d) n=138

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: "Each chip contains n transistors"

a) A chip needs all n transistor working to function correctly. If p is the probability that a transistor is working ok, then:

$P[C]=p^n$

b) The memory module works with when even one of the chips is defective. It means it works either if 8 chips or 9 chips are ok. The probability of the chips failing is independent of each other.

We can calculate this as a binomial distribution problem, with n=9 and k≥8:

$P[M]=P[C_9]+P[C_8]\\\\P[M]=\binom{9}{9}P[C]^9(1-P[C])^0+\binom{9}{8}P[C]^8(1-P[C])^1\\\\P[M]=P[C]^9+9P[C]^8(1-P[C])\\\\P[M]=p^{9n}+9p^{8n}(1-p^n)\\\\P[M]=p^{8n}(p^{n}+9(1-p^n))\\\\P[M]=p^{8n}(9-8p^n)$

c)

$P[M]=(0.999)^{8n}(9-8(0.999)^n)=0.9$

This equation was solved graphically and the result is that the maximum number of chips to have a reliability of the memory module equal or bigger than 0.9 is 62 transistors per chip. See picture attached.

d) If the memoty module tolerates 2 defective chips:

$P[M]=P[C_9]+P[C_8]+P[C_7]\\\\P[M]=\binom{9}{9}P[C]^9(1-P[C])^0+\binom{9}{8}P[C]^8(1-P[C])^1+\binom{9}{7}P[C]^7(1-P[C])^2\\\\P[M]=P[C]^9+9P[C]^8(1-P[C])+36P[C]^7(1-P[C])^2\\\\P[M]=p^{9n}+9p^{8n}(1-p^n)+36p^{7n}(1-p^n)^2$

We again calculate numerically and graphically and determine that the maximum number of transistor per chip in this conditions is n=138. See graph attached.

If x = 10, find the value of:<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B2%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B2%7D%28x%20-%205%29%20%7D%7B10x

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

$10$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2(10)^2(10-5)}{10(10)}$

Square the 10.

$\frac{2(100)(10-5)}{10(10)}$

Subtract 10 with 5.

$\frac{2(100)(5)}{10(10)}$

Multiply the numbers in the numerator.

$\frac{2(500)}{100}$

$\frac{1000}{100}$

Divide 1000 with 100.

$=10$

Describe how to draw a line that passes through the origin and has a slope of -2/3

Bas_tet [7]

Place a dot on the origin.
A line that has a slope of $\frac{-2}{3}$ goes by this formula:
$\frac{rise}{run}$
So "rise -2" and "run 3."
Rise -2 is basically go down 2, so go down 2 units from the origin. Run 3 means go right 3 units from (0, -2).
Draw a line through (3, -2) and (0, 0).
