This problem demonstrates the concept of redundancy, the principle of improving reliability of systems by using redundant or bac

kup components. Suppose a hydraulic system on an airplane has a 5% probability of failing.
a) What is the probability that the hydraulic system does not fail (that is, the flight is completed safely)?
b) Now, suppose that the airplane has three independent hydraulic systems that each have a 5% probability of failure. What is the probability that all three systems fail?
c) Supposing that the airplane will safely complete its flight if at least one of the three independent hydraulic systems is functioning, what is the probability that the airplane will safely complete its flight?
d) What effect does having a redundancy of three independent hydraulic systems have on the probability of a safe flight?

Answer:

hello,

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

p(fail)=0.05

p(not fail)=1-0.05=0.95

b)

p(3 fails)=0.05³=0,000125

c)

p(1 or more system not fail)=1-0.05³=0.999875

d)

it increase the security.( here  4/100 for 3 systems)

X=2

subtract 5x on both sides
-2x=-4
divide by -1 on both sides
2x=4
divide by 2 on both sides
x= 2

What is the average rate of change of the function over the interval x = 0 to x = 8?
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

if f(x) = 3x+4, the rate of change is 4.

if f(x) = 2x+7, the rate of change is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the average rate of change over the interval x=0 to x=8 is:

(f(x2) - f(x1))/x2-x1

Where:

x2 = 8

x1 = 0

if f(x) = 3x+4

so f(8)=3(8)+4 = 28

f(0)=3(0)+4 = 4

Then: (f(x2) - f(x1))/x2-x1 = (28 - 4)/8-0 = 24/8 = 3

On the other hand, if f(x) = 2x+7

f(8) = 2(8)+7 = 23

f(0) = 2(0)+7 = 7

Then: (f(x2) - f(x1))/x2-x1 = Then: 23 - 7/8-0 = 16/8 = 2

A motorboat takes 5 hours to travel 200 miles going upstream. The return trip takes 4 hours going downstream. What is the rate o
dsp73

Answer:

rate of motorboat: b

rate of current: c

So the rate the boat travels upstream is $b - c$, and the rate it travels downstream is $b + c$

Step-by-step explanation:

d = rt

200 = (b - c)\cdot 5

200 = (b + c)\cdot 4

b - c = 40

b + c = 50

Adding these equations, we get:

2b = 90

b = 45

So

c = 50 - 45 = 5

<u>Therefore the rate of the boat is 45kph, and the rate of the current is 5kph</u>

Hope this helps :)
