Twelvetelephones have just been received at an authorized service center. Fourof these telephones are cellular, four are cordles

s and the other fourare corded phones. Suppose that these components are randomly allocated the numbers 1, 2, ..., 12to establish the order in which they will be serviced.(a) What is the probability that all the cordless phones are among the first fourteen to be serviced?(b) What is the probability that after servicing fourteen of these phones, phones of only two of the three types remain to be serviced?

Answer:

a) 0.1707

b) 0.4247

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial distribution problem

There are 4 cellular phones, 4 cordless phones and 4 cellular phones.

a) Binomial distribution function is represented by

P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

n = total number of sample spaces = 8 phones to be serviced

x = Number of successes required = 4 cordless phones

p = probability of success = probability of a cordless phone amongst the phones to be serviced = 4/12 = (1/3)

q = probability of failure = probability of other phones = 1 - (1/3) = (2/3)

P(X = 4) = ⁸C₄ (1/3)⁴ (2/3)⁸⁻⁴ = 0.1707

b) probability that after servicing eight of these phones, phones of only two of the three types remain to be serviced

This probability is equal to the sum of probabilities that

- exactly 4 cordless phones and others

- exactly 4 corded phones and others

- exactly 4 cellular phones and others

Are serviced,

Minus the probability that

- exactly 4 cordless phones and 4 corded phones

- exactly 4 cordless phones and 4 cellular phones

- exactly 4 cellular phones and 4 corded phones

Are serviced

Probability = 0.1707 + 0.1707 + 0.1707 - 3(0.1707×0.1707) = 0.5121 - 0.087415 = 0.4247

sketch the region in the plane bounded by the x-axis, the line x=2 and the curve y=(1/9)x^5. find the area of this area of this
prohojiy [21]
Check the picture below... so the function looks like so.

now, bear in mind, the function x = 2, is just a vertical line, so we couldn't use the [ceiling] - [floor] type of function arrangement, thus let's use [right] - [left].

as you can see from the graph, which one is on the left side, and thus the left-function and which is on the right, or the right-function.

so, we have to have both in "y" terms, and the bound points are coming from the y-axis.   From the graph, we can tell the lower-bound is 0, what's the upper-bound?  let's check by seeing where those functions meet.

\bf y=\cfrac{1}{9}x^5\implies 9y=x^5\implies \sqrt[5]{9y}=x\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x=2\\&#10;\sqrt[5]{9y}=x&#10;\end{cases}\implies 2=\sqrt[5]{9y}\implies 2^5=9y\implies \boxed{\cfrac{32}{9}=y}

so, let's use that then.

\bf \displaystyle \int\limits_{0}^{\frac{32}{9}}\ \left([2] - \left[ \sqrt[5]{9y} \right]\right)dy\implies \int\limits_{0}^{\frac{32}{9}}\ 2\cdot dy-9^{\frac{1}{5}}\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{32}{9}}\ y^{\frac{1}{5}}\cdot dy&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\left.\cfrac{}{} 2y \right]_{0}^{\frac{32}{9}}-\left. \sqrt[5]{9}\cdot \cfrac{y^{\frac{6}{5}}}{\frac{6}{5}} \right]_{0}^{\frac{32}{9}}\implies &#10;\left.\cfrac{}{} 2y \right]_{0}^{\frac{32}{9}}-\left.\cfrac{5\sqrt[5]{9y^6}}{6} \right]_{0}^{\frac{32}{9}}

\bf \left[ \cfrac{64}{9} \right]-\left[ \cfrac{5\sqrt[5]{\frac{32^6}{9^5}}}{6} \right]\implies \cfrac{32}{27}\approx 1.\overline{185}

Vito owned 120 shares of a stock before tha corporation instituted a 5 for 3 split. Before the split, the stock was selling at 1
gtnhenbr [62]

Vito owned 120 shares of a stock before that corporation instituted a 5 for 3 split. Before the split, the stock was selling at 16 a share. Vito now has 200 shares of the stock that is worth about $26.67 each



Answer   =======>    False    

Post-split number of shares:    5/3   *    120      =    200

post-split price:        3/5   *   16      =     $9.60




Hope that helps!!!                    : )
