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

Sally's summer punch recipe is a combination of lemonade and fruit punch. Sally uses 6 cups of lemonade for every 8 cups of frui
andre [41]

Answer:

August made the recipe using the <em>incorrect</em> ratio

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Sally's recipe is a combination of lemonade and fruit

- Sally uses 6 cups of lemonade for every 8 cups of fruit

∵ Sally uses 6 cups of lemonade for every 8 cups of fruit

∴ The ratio of sally recipe is 6 : 8

- Simplify the terms of the ratio by divide them by 2

∴ The ratio of sally recipe is 3 : 4

- August made a recipe with 35 cups of liquid total

- He made 15 cups of them lemonade

∵ The total number of cups August made is 35

∵ 15 of them are lemonade

∴ The number of fruit cups = 35 - 15 = 20 cups

∵ August mad 15 cups of lemonade for every 20 cups of fruit

∴ The ratio of August recipe is 20 : 15

- Simplify the terms of the ratio by divide them by 5

∴ The ratio of August recipe is 4 : 3

∵ The ratio of Sally recipe is 3 : 4

∵ The ratio of August recipe is 4 : 3

∵ The ratio 3 : 4 ≠ the ratio 4 : 3

∴ August made the recipe using the <em>incorrect</em> ratio
