The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has contracted with your company for equipment to monitor water quality for several la

kes in your water district. A total of 10 devices will be used. Assume that each device has a probability of 0.01 of failure during the course of the monitoring period. What is the probability that none of your devices fail

The probability that none of the devices fails happens when x = 0.

P(none fail) = 1(0.01)^(0)•(1 - 0.01)^(10)

P(none fail) = (0.01)^0•(0.99)^(10)

P(none fail) = 0.90438

Answer:

Probability that none of your devices fail is 0.9044.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has contracted with your company for equipment to monitor water quality for several lakes in your water district. A total of 10 devices will be used. Assume that each device has a probability of 0.01 of failure during the course of the monitoring period.

The above situation can be represented through Binomial distribution;

P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r}p^{r} (1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,3,.....

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 10 devices

             r = number of success = none fail

            p = probability of success which is probability of failure during the

                   course of the monitoring period, i.e; 0.01.

<em>LET X = No. of failures</em>

So, it means X ~ Binom(n=10, p=0.01)

Now, Probability that none of your devices fail is given by = P(X = 0)

      P(X = 0) =  \binom{10}{0} \times 0.01^{0} \times (1-0.01)^{10-0}

                    = 1 \times 1 \times 0.99^{10} = 0.9044

Hence, the probability that none of your devices fail is 0.9044.

Need help with this math.
madreJ [45]

The end behavior of the function y = x² is given as follows:

f(x) -> ∞ as x -> - ∞; f(x) -> ∞ as x -> - ∞.

<h3>How to identify the end behavior of a function?</h3>

The end behavior of a function is given by the limit of f(x) when x goes to both negative and positive infinity.

In this problem, the function is:

y = x².

When x goes to negative infinity, the limit is:

lim x -> - ∞ f(x) = (-∞)² = ∞.

Meaning that the function is increasing at the left corner of it's graph.

When x goes to positive infinity, the limit is:

lim x -> ∞ f(x) = (∞)² = ∞.

Meaning that the function is also increasing at the right corner of it's graph.

Thus the last option is the correct option regarding the end behavior of the function.

<h3>Missing information</h3>

We suppose that the function is y = x².

What is cross products ​
Reil [10]
Is a binary operation on two vectors in three-dimensional space, and is denoted by the symbol. Given two linearly independent vectors a and b, the cross product, a × b, is a vector that is perpendicular to both a and b, and thus normal to the plane containing them.
