Answer:

0.249579

Step-by-step explanation:

P(rain) = 0.3

P(no rain) = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

The event of rain falling a second time within the next 5 days is possible in these ways

1. Rain on days 1 and 2

2. Rain on days 1 and 3; none on day 2

3. Rain on days 1 and 4; none on days 2 and 3

4. Rain on days 1 and 5; none on days 2, 3 and 4

5. Rain on days 1 and 6; none on day 2, 3, 4 and 5

P(\text{second rain within 5 days}) = 0.3^2+0.3^2\times0.7+0.3^2\times0.7^2+0.3^2\times0.7^3+0.3^2\times0.7^4 = 0.3^2(1+0.7+0.7^2+0.7^3+0.7^4)= 0.09\times2.7731=0.249579

ladessa [460]

Using the probability concept, it is found that there is a \mathbf{\frac{1}{k}} probability that “Relaxation Through Mathematics” is first to review.

A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.

In this problem:

  • There is a total of k documents to be reviewed, hence T = k.
  • Of those documents, 1 is named “Relaxation Through Mathematics”, hence D = 1

The <em>probability </em>is:

p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{k}
