There are two types of cellular phones, handheld phones (H) that you carry and mobile phones (M) that are mounted in vehicles. P

hone calls can be classified by the traveling speed of the user as fast (F) or slow (W). Monitor a cellular phone call and observe the type of telephone and the speed of the user. The probability model for this experiment has the following information:
P[F]=0.5, P[HF]=0.2, P[MW]=0.1.
What is the sample space of the experiment?
Find the following probabilities P[W], P[MF], and P[H].

Answer:

A) P(W) = 0.5

B) P(MF) = 0.3

C) P(H) = 0.6

Explanation:

We are told that there are two types of cellular phones which are handheld phones (H) that you carry and mobile phones (M) that are mounted in vehicles.

Also, Phone calls can be classified by the traveling speed of the user as fast (F) or slow (W).

Thus, the sample space is combination of types and classification we are given and it is written as;

S = {HF, HW, MF, MW}

A) Now, phones can either be fast(F) or slow(W). Thus, we can write;

P(F) + P(W) = 1

We are given P(F) = 0.5

Thus;

0.5 + P(W) = 1

P(W) = 1 - 0.5

P(W) = 0.5

B) Now, from the problem statement, a phone call can either be made with a handheld(H) or mobile(M). Thus the sample space partition is {H, M} and we can express as;

P(H ∩ F) + P(M ∩ F) = P(F)

We are given P[F] = 0.5 and P[HF] = 0.2.

P(H ∩ F) is same as P[HF]

Also, P(M ∩ F) is same as P(MF)

Thus;

0.2 + P(MF) = 0.5

P(MF) = 0.5 - 0.2

P(MF) = 0.3

C) Similarly, mobile Phone calls can either be fast or slow. It means the sample space partition is {F, W}

Thus;

P(M) = P(MW) + P(MF)

P(M) = 0.1 + 0.3

P(M) = 0.4

Now, since cellular phones can either be handheld(H) or Mobile(M), then we can say;

P(H) + P(M) = 1

P(H) + 0.4 = 1

P(H) = 1 - 0.4

P(H) = 0.6

Write a program to calculate overtime pay of 10 employees. Overtime is paid at the rate of Rs. 12.00
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Here is the code.

Explanation:

#include<stdio.h>

int main()

{

int i, time_worked, over_time, overtime_pay = 0;

for (i = 1; i <= 10; i++)

{

 printf("\nEnter the time employee worked in hr ");

 scanf("%d", &time_worked);

 if (time_worked>40)

 {

  over_time = time_worked - 40;

  overtime_pay = overtime_pay + (12 * over_time);

 }

}

printf("\nTotal Overtime Pay Of 10 Employees Is %d", overtime_pay);

return 0;

}

Output :

Enter the time employee worked in hr 42

Enter the time employee worked in hr 45

Enter the time employee worked in hr 42

Enter the time employee worked in hr 41

Enter the time employee worked in hr 50

Enter the time employee worked in hr 51

Enter the time employee worked in hr 52

Enter the time employee worked in hr 53

Enter the time employee worked in hr 54

Enter the time employee worked in hr 55

Total Overtime Pay Of 10 Employees Is 1020.

A slight breeze is blowing over the hot tub above and yields a heat transfer coefficient h of 20 W/m2 -K. The air temperature is
patriot [66]

Answer:4050 W

Explanation:

Given

Heat transfer Coefficient(h)=20 W/m^2-K

Air temperature =75 F

surface area(A)=7.5 m^2

Temperature of hot tube is 102 F

We know heat transfer due to convection is given by

Q=hA\left ( \Delta T\right )

Q=20\times 7.5\left ( 102-75\right )=4050 W

Tech A says you can find the typical angle of a V-block engine by dividing the number of cylinders by 720
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Tech A is correct

Explanation:

Tech A is right as its V- angle is identified by splitting the No by 720 °. Of the piston at the edge of the piston.

Tech B is incorrect, as the V-Angle will be 720/10 = 72 for the V-10 motor, and he says 60 °.
