Answer:

Visual.

Explanation:

Some programmers include scroll bars, title bars, buttons, and menus in a program simply by adding them to a layout through a process called visual programming.

A visual programming language is also commonly referred to as graphics user interface builder (GUI builder) and can be defined as a programming tool that avails programmers the ability to develop software programs (applications) using graphical elements and figures rather than texts alone.

Some examples of visual programming language are executable UML, Blockly, Kodu, Alice, Lego mindstorms, Gamemakers etc.

A computer retail store has 15 personal computers in stock. A buyer wants to purchase 3 of them. Unknown to either the retail st

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

a. 1365 ways

b. Probability = 0.4096

c. Probability = 0.5904

Explanation:

Given

PCs = 15

Purchase = 3

Solving (a): Ways to select 4 computers out of 15, we make use of Combination formula as follows;

$^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

Where $n = 15\ and\ r = 4$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{15!}{(15-4)!4!}$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{15!}{11!4!}$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11!}{11! * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1}$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{15 * 14 * 13 * 12}{4 * 3 * 2 * 1}$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{32760}{24}$

$^{15}C_4 = 1365$

<em>Hence, there are 1365 ways </em>

Solving (b): The probability that exactly 1 will be defective (from the selected 4)

First, we calculate the probability of a PC being defective (p) and probability of a PC not being defective (q)

<em>From the given parameters; 3 out of 15 is detective;</em>

So;

$p = 3/15$

$p = 0.2$

$q = 1 - p$

$q = 1 - 0.2$

$q = 0.8$

Solving further using binomial;

$(p + q)^n = p^n + ^nC_1p^{n-1}q + ^nC_2p^{n-2}q^2 + .....+q^n$

Where n = 4

For the probability that exactly 1 out of 4 will be defective, we make use of

$Probability = ^nC_3pq^3$

Substitute 4 for n, 0.2 for p and 0.8 for q

$Probability = ^4C_3 * 0.2 * 0.8^3$

$Probability = \frac{4!}{3!1!} * 0.2 * 0.8^3$

$Probability = 4 * 0.2 * 0.8^3$

$Probability = 0.4096$

Solving (c): Probability that at least one is defective;

In probability, opposite probability sums to 1;

Hence;

<em>Probability that at least one is defective + Probability that at none is defective = 1</em>

Probability that none is defective is calculated as thus;

$Probability = q^n$

Substitute 4 for n and 0.8 for q

$Probability = 0.8^4$

$Probability = 0.4096$

Substitute 0.4096 for Probability that at none is defective

Probability that at least one is defective + 0.4096= 1

Collect Like Terms

Probability = 1 - 0.4096

Probability = 0.5904
