Answer:
The probability that the message will be wrong when decoded is 0.05792
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
To reduce the chance or error, we transmit 00000 instead of 0 and 11111 instead of 1.
We have 5 bits, message will be corrupt if at least 3 bits are incorrect for the same block.
The digit transmitted is incorrectly received with probability p = 0.2
The probability of receiving a digit correctly is q = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8
We want the probability that the message will be wrong when decoded.
This can be written as:

Hence, the probability that the message will be wrong when decoded is 0.05792
There are 4 people in total
(including herself)
so 36 smarties should be evenly distributed among 4 people
so answer = 36/4 = 9
Answer:
3 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Raphel bought 2 1/2 pounds of chicken for $9
Therefore the cost per round of the chicken can be calculated as follows
9÷5/2
= 9×2/5
= 18/5
= 3 3/5
