If the probability that your DVD player breaks down before the extended warranty expires is 0.034, what is the probability that
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

0.966

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Probability of DVD player breaking down before the warranty expires = 0.034

To find:

The probability that the player will not break down before the warranty expires = ?

Solution:

Here, The two events are:

1. The DVD player breaks down before the warranty gets expired.

2. The DVD player breaks down after the warranty gets expired

In other words, the 2nd event can be stated as:

The DVD does not break down before the warranty gets expired.

The two events here, have nothing in common i.e. they are mutually exclusive events.

So, Sum of their probabilities will be equal to 1.

\bold{P(E_1)+P(E_2)=1}\\\Rightarrow 0.034+P(E_2)=1\\\Rightarrow P(E_2)=1-0.034\\\Rightarrow P(E_2)=\bold{0.966}

Tom wants to buy some protein bars and magazines for a trip he has decided to buy three times as many protein bars with magazine
kumpel [21]

Answer:12 Protein bar and 3 magazines

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Tom purchases Protein bars 3 times as much as magazine

Each bar cost  \$ 0.7

Each magazine costs \$ 2.50

Sales tax is 6.5 %

suppose Tom buy x magazines so

Price of magazine is 2.5 x

Price of bars is 3\times 0.7x=2.1 x

Total Price=2.5 x+2.1 x=4.6 x

After sales tax =4.6x(1+0.065)=4.899 x

This must be less than \$ 20

so 4.899x < 20

x< 4.082

thus x=4

so he but 4 magazines and 12 protein bars
