Before the distribution of certain statistical software, every fourth compact disk (CD) is testedfor accuracy. The testing proce

ss consists of running four independent programs and checking the results. The failure rates for the four testing programs are, respectively, 0.01, 0.03, 0.02, and 0.01.a.(4pts) What is the probability that a CD was tested and failed any test

Answer:

P(T∩E) = 0.017

Step-by-step explanation:

Since every fourth CD is tested. Thus if T is the event that represents 4 disks being tested,

P(T) = 1/4 = 0.25

Let Fi represent event of failure rate. So from the question,

P(F1) = 0.01 ; P(F2) = 0.03 ; P(F3) =0.02 ; P(F4) = 0.01

Also Let F'i represent event of success rate. And we have;

P(F'1) = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99 ; P(F'2) = 1 - 0.03 = 0.97; P(F'3) = 1 - 0.02 = 0.98; P(F'4) = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99

Since all programs run independently, the probability that all programs will run successfully is;

P(All programs to run successfully) =

P(F'1) x P(F'2) x P(F'3) x P(F'4) =

0.99 x 0.97 x 0.98 x 0.97 = 0.932

Now, that all 4 programs failed will be = 1 - 0.932 = 0.068

Let E be denote that the CD fails the test. Thus P(E) = 0.068

Now, since testing and CD's defection are independent events, the probability that one CD was tested and failed will be =P(T∩E) = P(T) x P(E)= 0.25 x 0.068 = 0.017

german
8 pigs x 4 legs each = 32. so you need 2 ducks to give you 10 animals total. So 32 + 2 ducks with 2 legs = 36.

There are 8 pigs and 2 ducks.

On your cell phone bill, you are charged $0.25 for each text you send. What is the dependent variable?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The amount of the bill is dependent on the number of texts sent. Let y be the bill amount and x the number of texts. Then x is independent and y is dependent. This is because x can be any non-negative number, but y depends upon it. You cannot find the bill without knowing the number of text messages, right?
