The probability any one system works is 0.99
So the probability of any one system failing is 1-0.99 = 0.01, so basically a 1% chance of failure for any one system
Multiply out the value 0.01 with itself four times
0.01*0.01*0.01*0.01 = 0.000 000 01
I'm using spaces to make the number more readable
So the probability of all four systems failing is 0.00000001
Subtract this value from 1 to get
1 - 0.00000001 = 0.99999999
The answer is 0.99999999 which is what we'd expect. The probability of at least one of the systems working is very very close to 1 (aka 100%)
Answer:
The answer is 7/8.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add 11/16 to 3/16, you'll get 14/16. 14/16 has two numbers that are divisible by 2, so when you divide 14/16 by 2 you'll get 7/8 which is 14/16 in a simplified form. 7 is prime and you can't divide it down any more, but 8 i'snt the same way. The rule is, whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other. You can divide 8, but not 7; therefore, you cannot simplify the fraction any further.
The maximum profit is the highest point on the curve at (3, 45), and since the y-value is the profit in hundreds of dollars, the maximum profit is $4500.
The shop is making a profit as long as the curve is above the x-axis, so this is over the given interval (0, 10).
The maximum profit is earned at x = 3, and the x-value is the money spent on advertising in hundreds of dollars, so this means that $300 was spent of advertising.
