Answer:

0.950796

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a shuttle launch depends on three key devices that may fail independently of each other with probabilities 0.01, 0.02, and 0.02, respectively.

Required probability =  the probability for the shuttle to be launched on time

= Probability that all three do not fail

Since each key device is independent of the other

we have

prob that all three do not fail = (1-0.01)(1-0.02)(1-0.02)\\=0.99*0.98*0.98\\=0.950796

The limit is equivalent to the value of the derivative of \cos x at x=\dfrac\pi2. (See definition of derivative)

(\cos x)'=-\sin x\implies (\cos x)'\bigg|_{x=\pi/2}=-\sin\dfrac\pi2=-1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

                                                           4x + 1

The quotient   (f/g)(x) is    (f/g)(x) = ---------------
