An ion channel can be in either open (O) or closed (C) states. If it is open, then it has probability 0.1 of closing in 1 micros

econd; if closed, it has probability 0.3 of opening in 1 microsecond. Calculate the probability of the ion channel going through the following sequence of states: COO. An individual can be either susceptible (S) or infected (I), the probability of infection for a susceptible person is 0.05 per day, and the probability an infected person becoming susceptible is 0.12 per day. Calculate the probability of a person going through the following string of states: SISI.

Answer:

a)  P (COO)  = 0,135

b) P ( SISI) = 0,00015

Step-by-step explanation:

a) the probability of an ion channel in open position is 50 %   0,5

   the probability of an ion channel in close position is 50 %   0,5

probability for the following sequence of states COO

to be closed   0,5    (C)

from (C) to pass to open  0,3  (O)

and to stay O  is 0,9

Then the probability of the sequence of states COO is

P (COO)  = 0,5 * 0,3 * 0,9  

P (COO)  = 0,135

b) If people are either infected or susceptible, then

Probability of an individual infected is  0,5

Probability of an individual susceptible  is 0,5

to pass from susceptible to infected is 0,05

to pass from infected to susceptible is 0,12

then

P ( SISI) = 0,5 * 0,05*0,12*0,05

P ( SISI) = 0,00015

probability for the following sequence of states COO

A furniture company makes large and small chairs. A small chair takes 20 minutes of machine time and 60 minutes of labor to buil
bixtya [17]

Answer:

  30 small chairs and 24 large chairs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the numbers of small chairs and large chairs built in a day. Then the relations for using available time are ...

  20x +50y = 30×60

  60x +90y = 66×60

Removing common factors, these can be written in standard form as ...

  2x +5y = 180

  2x +3y = 132

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

  2y = 48

  y = 24 . . . . . divide by 2

Using the first equation to find x, we have ...

  2x +5(24) = 180

  2x = 60 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 120

  x = 30 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The company can build 30 small chairs and 24 large chairs in a day.

Maddie has 180 coins. Of these coins, 1/12 are dimes. About how many dimes does she have?
tia_tia [17]
Remember that "of" means to multiply.
(1/12) of 180 coins are dimes. The number of dimes will be
(1/12)*180 = 180/12 = 15

Five pounds of birdseed is used to fill 4 identical bird feeders.
enyata [817]

Answer:

a. We need 1/4 for each feeder  

b. To fill each feeder we need 1.25 pounds

c.  We need 60 ounces to fill three bird feeders

Step-by-step explanation:

Five pounds of birdseed is used to fill 4 identical bird feeders,  

a. We divide all the birdseed in 4 feeders, so,  we need 1/4 for each feeder.

b. If we use 5 pounds for the 4 feeders,  so each feeders will take 1/4 of the 5 pounds

=1/4 x 5=1.25 pounds

c. To fill three bird feeders we have to multiply the amount of pounds by feeder by 3 feeders

=1.25 pounds x 3

= 3,75 pounds

If 16 ounces are a pound

so,  16 x 3.75 = 60 ounces
