A piece of electronic equipment is built with 3 cooling fans. The equipment will function only if at least 2 of the 3 fans are w

orking. The lifetimes of the fans are subject to forces of mortality that are independent, constant, and identical. The force of mortality is equal to 0.098. Calculate the probability that the electronic equipment will work for at least 5 years. (Ans 0.66608)

Answer:

0.66608

Step-by-step explanation:

Equipment = 3 fans

Mortality = 0.098

We are required to find probability that equipment gets to work for 5years

The question says forces of mortality is constant and also equal to 0.098

To calculate p(x>5)

We will do this by calculating exponentially

e^-0.098x5

= 0.612626394

Probability that at least 2 fans out of 3 are working

3(0.612626394)²+(1-0.612626394)+(0.612626394)³

= 1.1259333x0.3873736+0.2299255

= 0.6660823470

This is approximately

<u>0.6608</u>

this is the probability that the equipment will work for at least 5years

Answer:

A dilation by a factor of three about Point T followed by a translation of two units downwards.

Step-by-step explanation:

When transforming functions, we will reflect/dilate the figure first and then translate it. This is directly from the order of operations.

Since we are trying to determine the transformation that was performed, we can try to map ΔS'T'U' onto ΔSTU. We can start by translating the figure and then determining any reflections/dilations.

First, we can translate ΔS'T'U' up two units to map T' onto T. This is represented by the black triangle in the image below. Let the black triangle be ΔS''T''U''. (T'' and T are the same point.)

Next, notice that from Point T'' to U'', we move nine units right and six units up.

From Point T to Point U, we move three units right and two units up.

Likewise, from Point T'' to S'', we move six units left and nine units up.

From Point T to Point S, we move two units left and three units up.

Therefore, to map ΔS''T''U'' onto ΔSTU, we dilate ΔS''T''U'' about Point T by a factor of 1/3.

Hence, by reversing the transformations, to acquire ΔS'T'U', we can see that we will dilate ΔSTU by a factor of three about Point T and then a perform a translation of two units downwards.

Last week, Max earned a total of $162 working at two jobs. He worked 6 hours at his grandfather's store and 10 hours at the loca
VMariaS [17]

The choices are missing but we can find the right equation from the given information

The equation that models this situation is 6 g + 10 m = 162

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • Max earned a total of $162 working at two jobs
  • He worked 6 hours at his grandfather's store
  • He worked 10 hours at the local  movie theater
  • g represents the hourly rate paid by Max's grandfather, and m represents the hourly rate paid by the movie theater

We need to write an equation models this situation

∵ g represents the hourly rate paid by Max's grandfather

∵ He worked 6 hours at his grandfather's store

∴ He earned from his grandfather = 6 × g = 6 g dollars

∵ m represents the hourly rate paid by the movie theater

∵ He worked 10 hours at the local  movie theater

∴ He earned from the local  movie theater = 10 × m = 10 m dollars

Add 6 g and 10 m to find his total earning

∵ His total earning = 6 g + 10 m

∵ Max earned a total of $162

- Equate his total earning by 162

∴ 6 g + 10 m = 162

The equation that models this situation is 6 g + 10 m = 162
