Explain the level of uncertainties involve in concept of probability. The next generation of miniaturized wireless capsules with

active locomotion will require two miniature electric motors to maneuver each capsule. Suppose 10 motors have been fabricated but that, in spite of tests performed on the individual motors, 2 will not operate satisfactorily, when placed into a capsule. To fabricate a new capsule, 2 motors will be randomly selected, find the probability that: (i) Both motors will operate satisfactorily in the capsule. (ii) One motor will operate satisfactorily and the other will not.

Answer:

a) the probability that Both motors will operate satisfactorily in the capsule 0.6222

b) the probability that One motor will operate satisfactorily and the other will not is 0.3556

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

total number of motors N = 10

number of motors will not operate satisfactory m = 2

number of motors randomly selected n = 2

let X be number of motors will that will not operate successfully

here, X≅Hyper geometric (x; N,n,m)

The probability mass function of x is;

P (X = x)=  { m }   {N - m }

                  {x }    {n - x}

        ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

                     { N }

                     { n  }

a)

the probability that both motors will operate satisfactorily in the capsule i.e no motor will not operate satisfactory

so

P(X= 0)  = { 2 }    { 10 - 2 }

                 {0 }    { 2 - 0}

        ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

                     { 10 }

                     { 2  }

so

P (X = 0)  = { 2 }   { 8}

              {  0 }   { 2  }

        ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

                     { 10 }

                     { 2  }

p(P= 0)=1×28 / 45 = 28/45 = 0.6222

Therefore the probability that Both motors will operate satisfactorily in the capsule 0.6222

b)

the probability that one motor will operate satisfactorily and the other will not.

P(X=1)  = { 2 }   { 10 - 2 }

              {  1 }    { 2 - 1  }

        ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

                     { 10 }

                     { 2  }

so

P(X=1)  = { 2 }   { 8 }

              {  1 }   { 1  }

        ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

                     { 10 }

                     { 2  }

P(X=1)  = 2×8 / 45 = 16/45 = 0.3556

Therefore the probability that One motor will operate satisfactorily and the other will not is 0.3556

If a#b=a+2b, what is the value of 3#4
klasskru [66]
Hey there, Dudedan!
In a#b = a+2b, we have the first term, a, plus 2 times the second term, b.
Let's try that with 3#4.
3#4 = 3+2(4) =
3 + 8 = 11.
Hope this helps!

The product of two numbers is 161 , one of number is 7,find the other number. ​
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

let the other number be " n "

now, according to above condition :

  • n × 7 = 161

  • n = 161 ÷ 7

  • n = 23

therefore, the other number would be 23.

The angles in a triangle are in the ratio 1:2:3. Show that this triangle is a right-angled triangle. The hypotenuse of the trian
natita [175]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Sum the parts of the ratio , 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 parts

Divide sum of angles in a triangle by 6 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

180° ÷ 6 = 30° ← value of 1 part of the ratio

2 parts = 2 × 30° = 60°

3 parts = 3 × 30° = 90°

Since there is an angle of 90° then the triangle is right.

(b)

The shortest side is the side opposite the smallest angle of 30°

Using the sine ratio and the exact value

sin30° = \frac{1}{2} , then

sin30° = \frac{opp}{hyp} = \frac{opp}{19} = \frac{1}{2} ( cross- multiply )

2 opp = 19 ( divide both sides by 2 )

opp = 9,5

Shortest side in the triangle is 9.5 cm
