Answer:
a) P=0.0175
b) P=0.0189
Step-by-step explanation:
For both options we have to take into account that not only the chance of a "superevent" will disable both suppliers.
The other situation that will disable both is that both suppliers have their "unique-event" at the same time.
As they are, by definition, two independent events, we can calculate the probability of having both events at the same time as the product of both individual probabilities.
a) Then, the probability that both suppliers will be disrupted using option 1 is
b) The probability that both suppliers will be disrupted using option 2:
Pue = probability of a unique event
Pse = probability of a superevent
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information:
A sandwich shop offers eight types of sandwiches, and Jamey likes all of them equally.
The probability that Jamey picks any one of them is 1/8
Suppose
X represents the number of times he chooses salami
Y represents the number of times he chooses falafel
Z represents the number of times he chooses veggie
Then X+Y+Z ≤ 5 and;
5-X-Y-Z represents the no. of time he chooses the remaining
8 - 3 = 5 sandwiches
However, the objective is to determine the P[X=x,Y=y,Z=z] such that 0≤x,y,z≤5
So, since he chooses x no. of salami sandwiches with probability (1/8)x
and y number of falafel with probability (1/8)y
and for z (1/8)z
Therefore, the remaining sandwiches are chosen with probability
So. these x days, y days and z days can be arranged within five days in
Thus;
since 0 ≤ x, y, z ≤ 5 and x + y + z ≤ 5.
The distribution is said to be Multinomial distribution.
