Company ABC has one thermostat, two boilers, and one water gauge. For a company to be properly heated, the thermostat and a mini

mum of one boiler must be operational (both boilers can also be operational). The water gauge is not a factor. History shows that each boiler is operational 72% of the time. The thermostat is operational 94% of the time and the water gauge is operational 87% of the time. Failures of either the thermostat, boilers or water gauge are independent of each other. What is the probability that company ABC is properly heated.

Answer: 0.866304

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that thermostat is operational and B shows the event that at least one boiler is operational.

The probability that thermostat is operational is  P(A) = 0.94

The probability that both boiler is not operational is (1 - 0.72)\times(1-0.72) = 0.0784

The probability that at least one boiler is operational is

P(B) = 1 - 0.0784 = 0.9216   [ Using complement rule]

But water gauge is not a factor, thus the probability that company ABC is properly heated is

P(T) \times P(B) = 0.94 \times0.9216 = 0.866304

Hence, the probability that company ABC is properly heated. = 0.866304

(xm.x2)3(k3)5 = x21k15<br> Find the Value of M
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

m=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

([(x^m) (x^2)]^3) ([k^3)^5]= (x^21)(k^15)

we can simplify this equation by understanding what operation that was applied to the x and k variables

we can pridect that they were using the multiplication method of exponents by distribution as follows:

if we look at x^21 at the right side of the equation then we shold have the same nuber of x multiples such that:

21= (3)(7) but if we look at the right hand side we have some missing information but we can still use the multiplication of the exponent and subtract it from the right hand side as follows:

first distribute 3 for both x's in the left hand side:

(x^m)^3= x^(3)(m)

and

(x^2)^3= x^(2)(3)

⇒will give us:

(x^3m)(x^6)=(x^21)

let us now check by ignoring the x's and use the exponents in the form of an equation:

(3m)+(6)=21

move 6 to the right side

3m = 21-6

3m=15

m= 15/3

m=5

so, by substituting 5 with m at the original equation we will get:

(x^5(3)) (x^6) = x^21

(x^15)(x^6)=x^21

that applies the same rule to the variable k

k^3(5)=k^15
