A computer virus is trying to corrupt two files. The first file will be corrupted with probability 0.4. Independently of it, the

second file will be corrupted with probability 0.3. Compute the PMF of X, the number of corrupted files.
A = probability of corrupted first file
B = probability of corrupted second file

for one file: For X = 1, 

P(~A and B)

or 

P(A and ~B) = 

0.6 * 0.3 + 0.4*0.7 = 0.46


Oh, I think I see, the universe for P(A and B) is first 

or 

second file while P(~A and B) or P(A and ~B) the universe is first, second or no file.

Use completing the square to solve the equation x^2+16x=-44.
Sidana [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

our equation is x²+16x = -44

  • x²+16x= -44
  • x² is the first term so weill have in the middle 2*x* a number
  • x²+2*x*8 = -44
  • the third term is 8² wich is 64 so we will add it in both sides
  • x²+2*x*8+64 = -44+64
  • (x+8)² = 20

Now that we have completed the perfect square let's solve the equation

  • (x+8)² = 20
  • x+8 = \sqrt{20}or x+8= -\sqrt{20}
  • x = -8+\sqrt{20} or x =  -8- \sqrt{20}

so the first answer is the correct one

64; 8 +/- \sqrt{20}

a chef is going to use a mixture of two brands of Italian dressing. The first brand contains 5% vinegar and the second Brian con
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

  • 273 mL of 5%
  • 117 mL of 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let q represent the quantity of 15% dressing used. Then the amount of 5% dressing is (390 -q). The amount of vinegar in the mix is ...

  0.15q + 0.05(390 -q) = 0.08(390)

  0.10q = 31.2 -19.5 = 11.7 . . . . . . subtract 0.05(390) and simplify

  q = 117 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 10

  390-q = 273

The chef should use 273 mL of the first brand (5% vinegar) and 117 mL of the second brand (15% vinegar).

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

You may have noticed that the value of q is (0.08 -0.05)/(0.10 -0.05)×390. The fraction of the mix that is the highest contributor is the ratio of the difference between the mix value and least contributor, divided by the difference between the contributors: (8-5)/(15-5) = 3/10, the fraction that is 15% vinegar. This is the generic solution to mixture problems.
