Answer:

(a) 0.000061

(b) 0.000061

(c) 0.209

Step-by-step explanation:

An array of 14 bits is equally likely to be 0 or 1.

That is, P (0) = P (1) = 0.50.

(a)

Compute the probability that all bits are 1s as follows:

P(\text{All bits are 1s})=[P(1)]^{14} ∵ the bits are independent

                            =(0.50)^{14}\\=0.00006103515625\\\approx 0.000061

Thus, the probability that all bits are 1s is 0.000061.

(b)

Compute the probability that all bits are 0s as follows:

P(\text{All bits are 0s})=[P(0)]^{14} ∵ the bits are independent

                            =(0.50)^{14}\\=0.00006103515625\\\approx 0.000061

Thus, the probability that all bits are 0s is 0.000061.

(c)

Compute the probability that exactly 7 bits are 1s and 7 bits are 0s as follows:

Define <em>X</em> as the number of bits that 1s.

Then the random variable <em>X</em> will follows a binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 14 and <em>p</em> = 0.50.

The value of P (X = 7) is:

P(X=7)={14\choose 7}(0.50)^{7}(1-0.50)^{14-7}

               =\frac{14!}{7!\times 7!}\times (0.50)^{14}\\\\=3432\times 0.000061\\\\=0.209352\\\\\approx 0.209

Thus, the probability that exactly 7 bits are 1s and 7 bits are 0s is 0.209.

1st. (2 root 2 + root 3 ) ( 2 root 3 - root 2)
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

1st: 3*root6 + 5

2nd: 35*root2 + 115

3rd: 24*root2 - 20*root6 + 15*root3 - 18

4th: 17*root6 - 38

5th: 13*root10 - 42

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify these expressions we need to use the distributive property:

(a + b) * (c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

So simplifying each expression, we have:

1st.

(2 root 2 + root 3 ) ( 2 root 3 - root 2)

= 4*root6 - 2*2 + 2*3 - root6

= 3*root6 - 4 + 9

= 3*root6 + 5

2nd.

(root 5 + 2 root 10) (3 root 5 + root 10)

= 3 * 5 + root50 + 6*root50 + 2*10

= 15 + 5*root2 + 30*root2 + 100

= 35*root2 + 115

3rd.

(4 root 6 - 3 root 3) (2 root 3 - 5)

= 8*root18 - 20*root6 - 6*3 + 15root3

= 24*root2 - 20*root6 + 15*root3 - 18

4rd.

(6 root 3 - 5 root 2 ) (2 root 2 - root 3)

= 12*root6 - 6*3 - 10*2 + 5*root6

= 17*root6 - 18 - 20

= 17*root6 - 38

5th.

(root 10 - 3 ) ( 4 - 3 root 10)

= 4*root10 - 3*10 - 12 + 9*root10

= 13*root10 - 30 - 12

= 13*root10 - 42
