Twenty percent of all telephones of a certain type are submitted for service while under warranty. Of these, 70% can be repaired

, whereas the other 30% must be replaced with new units. If a company purchases ten of these telephones, what is the probability that exactly two will end up being replaced under warranty?

Answer:

The required probability is 0.09875

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

the probability of repairing the telephones = 0.70

the probability of the replaced = 0.30

Suppose we consider  Mto denotes the telephone that is submitted for service while under warranty and must be replaced.

Then;

p = P(S) = P(replaced | submitted) P(submitted)

= 0.30 × 0.20

= 0.06

Now, the probability that exactly two will end up being replaced under warranty given that it assumes  a binomial distribution where n = 10 and p = 0.06

P(X=2)=\bigg (^{10}_{2}\bigg) 0.06^2(1-0.06)^{10-2}

P(X=2)=\dfrac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}\times  0.06^2\times (0.94)^{8}

\mathbf{P(X=2)=0.09875}

Use the properties of logarithms to rewrite each expression in an equivalent form containing a single logarithm.
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

log(5/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to apply the properties of logarithms to the given expression in order to obtain a form with a single logarithm.

For example, the quotient rule:

log(\frac{x}{y}) = log(x) - log (y)

In this case, log(x) = log (5/6 ) and log(y)= log (2/3)

Therefore x = 5/6 and y = 2/3

Applying the rule:

log (5/6 )− log (2/3) = log(\frac{5/6}{2/3})

Solving the argument of the logarithm (The division of the fractions)

\frac{5/6}{2/3} = \frac{(5)(3)}{(6)(2)} =\frac{15}{12} =\frac{5}{4}

The equivalent form is:

log(5/4)
