Answer:
probability of an electric power outage shipboard is 0.075 or 7.5 %
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Probability of engine malfunction = 25% = 0.25
Probability of generator malfunction = 10% = 0.1
Probability of generator being repaired = 50% = 0.5
probability of an electric power outage shipboard = ?
To get the probability of an electric power outage shipboard, we use the expression;
probability of an electric power outage = 2 × p( Probability of generator malfunction ) × p( Probability of generator being repaired ) × ( 1 - p( Probability of engine malfunction ) )
so we substitute in our given values;
probability of an electric power outage = 2 × 0.1 × 0.5 × ( 1 - 0.25 )
probability of an electric power outage = 2 × 0.1 × 0.5 × 0.75
probability of an electric power outage = 0.075 or 7.5 %
ΔABC is a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle. The pattern of its sides is as follows:
Each leg = 1 unit (and both legs are that way, since the triangle is isosceles - so two sides are the same)
Hypotenuse = √2 units.
So if we know either leg, we multiply by √2 to get the hypotenuse. In reverse, we divide by √2 if we know the hypotenuse to get the measurement of a leg.
Our problem tells us that the hypotenuse AC is 10 units. We divide 10 by √2 to get the measurement of leg AB. Since it's a 45 -45 - 90 triangle, AB = BC.
to rationalize the radical
Thus, each leg is 5\sqrt{2} [/tex].
