Answer:

P = float(input("Principal Amount: "))

R = float(input("Rate: "))

T = float(input("Time: "))

option = int(input("1 for Simple Interest, 2 for Compound interest: "))

if option == 1:

Interest = (P * R * T)/100

print("Interest: "+str(Interest))

elif option == 2:

Interest = P * (1 + R/100)**t

print("Interest: "+str(Interest))

else:

print("Invalid Selection")

Explanation:

The next three line prompt user for Principal Amount, Rate and Time

P = float(input("Principal Amount: "))

R = float(input("Rate: "))

T = float(input("Time: "))

This line prompts user for option (1 for Simple Interest, 2 for Compound interest)

option = int(input("1 for Simple Interest, 2 for Compound interest: "))

If option is 1, simple interest is calculated

if option == 1:

Interest = (P * R * T)/100

print("Interest: "+str(Interest))

If option is 2, compound interest is calculated

elif option == 2:

Interest = P * (1 + R/100)**t

print("Interest: "+str(Interest))

If option is neither 1 nor 2, Invalid Selection is printed

else:

print("Invalid Selection")

Windows workstations all have elements of server software built-in. What are these elements, and why is the Windows Professional

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Elements of Server software that is built-in, in Windows workstations are:

1. Hard drives,

2. RAM (Random Access Memory)

3. Processors

4. Network adapters.

Windows Professional OS is not considered a server due to the following:

1. Windows Professional OS has a limit on the number of client connections it allowed.

2. Unlike Server, Professional OS uses less memory

2. In comparison to Server, Professional OS uses the CPU less efficiently

4. Professional OS is not built to process background tasks, unlike Server that is configured to perform background tasks.

A computer retail store has 15 personal computers in stock. A buyer wants to purchase 3 of them. Unknown to either the retail st

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

a. 1365 ways

b. Probability = 0.4096

c. Probability = 0.5904

Explanation:

Given

PCs = 15

Purchase = 3

Solving (a): Ways to select 4 computers out of 15, we make use of Combination formula as follows;

$^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

Where $n = 15\ and\ r = 4$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{15!}{(15-4)!4!}$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{15!}{11!4!}$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11!}{11! * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1}$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{15 * 14 * 13 * 12}{4 * 3 * 2 * 1}$

$^{15}C_4 = \frac{32760}{24}$

$^{15}C_4 = 1365$

Hence, there are 1365 ways 

Solving (b): The probability that exactly 1 will be defective (from the selected 4)

First, we calculate the probability of a PC being defective (p) and probability of a PC not being defective (q)

From the given parameters; 3 out of 15 is detective;

So;

$p = 3/15$

$p = 0.2$

$q = 1 - p$

$q = 1 - 0.2$

$q = 0.8$

Solving further using binomial;

$(p + q)^n = p^n + ^nC_1p^{n-1}q + ^nC_2p^{n-2}q^2 + .....+q^n$

Where n = 4

For the probability that exactly 1 out of 4 will be defective, we make use of

$Probability = ^nC_3pq^3$

Substitute 4 for n, 0.2 for p and 0.8 for q

$Probability = ^4C_3 * 0.2 * 0.8^3$

$Probability = \frac{4!}{3!1!} * 0.2 * 0.8^3$

$Probability = 4 * 0.2 * 0.8^3$

$Probability = 0.4096$

Solving (c): Probability that at least one is defective;

In probability, opposite probability sums to 1;

Hence;

Probability that at least one is defective + Probability that at none is defective = 1

Probability that none is defective is calculated as thus;

$Probability = q^n$

Substitute 4 for n and 0.8 for q

$Probability = 0.8^4$

$Probability = 0.4096$

Substitute 0.4096 for Probability that at none is defective

Probability that at least one is defective + 0.4096= 1

Collect Like Terms

Probability = 1 - 0.4096

Probability = 0.5904
