Consider testing batteries coming off an assembly line one by one until one having a voltage within prescribed limits is found.

The simple events are E1= {S}, E2= {FS}, E3= {FFS} and so on .Suppose the probability of any particular battery being satisfactory is 0.99. All Ei are disjoints. Write down complete sample space and prove that P (sample space) =1.

It's clear enough that

\mathbb P(E_i)=\mathbb P(i=j)=\begin{cases}0.99&\text{for }j=1\\0.01\times0.99&\text{for }j=2\\0.01^2\times0.99&\text{for }j=3\\\vdots\end{cases}

Because each of the E_i are disjoint, it follows that

\displaystyle\mathbb P(\text{sample space})=\mathbb P(E_1\cup E_2\cup\cdots)=\mathbb P\left(\bigcup_{i=1}^\infty E_i\right)=\sum_{i=1}^\infty\mathbb P(E_i)
=0.99+0.01\times0.99+0.01^2\times0.99+\cdots
=0.99(1+0.01+0.01^2+\cdots)
=0.99\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty 0.01^n
=0.99\times\dfrac1{1-0.01}
=\dfrac{0.99}{0.99}=1

Find the value of x ​
AveGali [126]

Answer:

x = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are supplementary, they add up to 180 degrees.

So, you can say x + x/2 = 180

Then, you would solve it like an algebra problem.

Multiply both sides by 2

2x + x = 360

Simplify

3x = 360

Divide both sides by 3

x = 120

A customer wants to purchase a pair of shoes that cost $45 and the state sales tax is 7%.
Rasek [7]

Answer:

$22.84

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax is calculated by 0.075 * 21.25 = 1.59375 or $1.59. So the total bill is the cost of items purchased plus tax, which is $21.25 + $1.59 = $22.84.
