The probability any one system works is 0.99
So the probability of any one system failing is 1-0.99 = 0.01, so basically a 1% chance of failure for any one system
Multiply out the value 0.01 with itself four times
0.01*0.01*0.01*0.01 = 0.000 000 01
I'm using spaces to make the number more readable
So the probability of all four systems failing is 0.00000001
Subtract this value from 1 to get
1 - 0.00000001 = 0.99999999
The answer is 0.99999999 which is what we'd expect. The probability of at least one of the systems working is very very close to 1 (aka 100%)
Answer:
easy peasy,
the 'n' th term of any arithmetic sequence can be found with the following formula
=> a + ( n-1) d, [where 'a' if the first term of the sequence, 'n' the number of term we need to find, and 'd' being the common difference between each two consecutive term of the sequence)
all in this case would be,
a = 0
n = 100
d = +5
hence the 100th term would be,
=> 0 + (100 - 1) 5
=> 99 x 5
=> 495
560 / 28 = 20....so the driver travels 20 miles per gallon
on 35 gallons......35 * 20 = 700 miles <==
or u can also do it this way...
560/28 = x / 35....560 miles to 28 gal = x miles to 35 gal
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(28)(x) = (560)(35)
28x = 19600
x = 19600/28
x = 700 miles <==
so u can either do it by finding the unit rate or by making a proportion. either way will result in the same answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Many calculators use "E" to signify "×10^( )". Thus ...
... 1.3E-2 = 1.3×10^(-2)
This number in scientific notation is equivalent to the standard form number ...
... 1.3×0.01 = 0.013
