Kevin installed a certain brand of automatic garage door opener that utilizes a transmitter control with four independent switches, each one set on or off. The receiver (wired to the door) must be set with the same pattern as the transmitter. If six neighbors with the same type of opener set their switches independently.<u>The probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings is 0.65633</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>
In the question it is given that
Automatic garage door opener utilizes a transmitter control with four independent switches
<u>So .the number of Combinations possible with the Transmitters </u>=
2*2*2*2= 16
<u>
Step 2</u>
Probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings = 1- Probability of All Neighbors using different settings.
= 1- 16*15*14*13*12*11/(16^6)
<u>
Step 3</u>
Probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings=
= 1- 0.343666
<u>
Step 4</u>
<u>So the probability of at least </u>one pair of neighbors using the same settings
is 0.65633
Where's the equation that contains "z"?
Hi there!
So, our two equations are:
2x + 3y = 20 and
-2x + y = 4
We can see that the x's will cancel out because they're the same number, opposite signs. Then we're left with 4y = 24.
Divide 24 by 4, which is 6.
y = 6, then we plug that in to the first equation for y:
2x + 3(6) = 20
2x + 18 = 20
2x = 2
x = 1
So, she made her first mistake when adding the equations, adding 20 and 4, she somehow got 16.
The solution to the system is (1,6).
I hope I helped!
