A TV set contains five circuit boards of type A, five of type B, and four of type C. The probability of failing in its first 500

0 hours of use is 0.03 for a type A circuit board, 0.04 for a type B circuit board, and 0.03 for a type C circuit board. Assuming that the failures of the various circuit boards are independent of one another, compute the probability that no circuit board fails in the first 5000 hours of use.

Answer:

0.903264

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a TV set contains five circuit boards of type A, five of type B, and four of type C. The probability of failing in its first 5000 hours of use is 0.03 for a type A circuit board, 0.04 for a type B circuit board, and 0.03 for a type C circuit board.

Let A' = the event that A fails, B' =  B fails and C'= C fails.

Probability that no circuit board fails = Prob (A'B'C')

= P(A')P(B')P(C')  (since A,B, C are independent, their complements are independent

= (1-0.03)(1-0.04)(1-0.03)

= 0.903264

The function C(x)=−20x+1681 represents the cost to produce x items. What is the least number of items that can be produced so th
Reptile [31]

Answer:

<em>The least number of items to produce is 41</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Average Cost</u>

Given C(x) as the cost function to produce x items. The average cost is:

\displaystyle \bar C(X)=\frac{C(x)}{x}

The cost function is:

C(x) = -20x+1681

And the average cost function is:

\displaystyle \bar C(X)=\frac{-20x+1681}{x}

We are required to find the least number of items that can be produced so the average cost is less or equal to $21.

We set the inequality:

\displaystyle \frac{-20x+1681}{x}\le 21

Multiplying by x:

-20x+1681 \le 21x

Note we multiplied by x and did not flip the inequality sign because its value cannot be negative.

Adding 20x:

1681 \le 21x+20x

1681 \le 41x

Swapping sides and changing the sign:

41x \ge 1681

Dividing by 41:

x\ge 41

The least number of items to produce is 41

Tyra makes $21.40 per hour at her job for the first 40 hours and $32.10 for anything over 40 hours. if tyra typically works 45 h
Debora [2.8K]
She works for 40 hours, and then 5 hours.
So, for these first 40 hours, Tyra earns $21.40 per hour. We can find how much she earns in 40 hours:

21.40 x 40 = 856.
So, in the first 40 hours, she makes $856.

Now, for any number of hours Tayra works more that 40 hours, she will earn $32.10 each hour.

She works 5 hours over 40 hours, since it is 45 hours in total.
Hence, Tayra will earn $32.10 every hour for the 5 hours:

5 x 32.10 = 160.5.
Therefore, she will earn $160.50 for the 5 hours.

Now we have both of the earning amounts that make up how much she makes in the 45 hours. We can add them together

40 hours + 5 hours = 45 hours.
Substitute the amounts in the hours.

856 + 160.5 = 1016.5.

Thus, the answer is that Tyra will warn $1,016.50 in the total 45 hours.
Ergo, the correct answer is C.

Hope this helps, let me know if you need anything else! :)
