Answer:
36.58% probability that one of the devices fail
Step-by-step explanation:
For each device, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it fails, or it does not fail. The probability of a device failling is independent of other devices. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

In which
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

And p is the probability of X happening.
A total of 15 devices will be used.
This means that 
Assume that each device has a probability of 0.05 of failure during the course of the monitoring period.
This means that 
What is the probability that one of the devices fail?
This is 


36.58% probability that one of the devices fail
The rule is that y equals 4 times x.
Whatever value of x you have, multiply it by 4 to find the corresponding y value.
If x = 3, y = 4 * 3 = 12
If x = 4, y = 4 * 4 = 16
If x = 5, y = 4 * 5 = 20
The table looks like this:
x y
3 12
4 16
5 20
Well, you have to write and solve an equation to find the length of T of Travis' rope. But here are the answers that I came up with.
T = 9 Ft
S = 23 Ft
Your answer is D since 53 is the total amount of bottle caps and only 2 of them are marked. so that will leave you with a 2/53 chance of getting the prize.
