Answer:
- P(≥1 working) = 0.9936
- She raises her odds of completing the exam without failure by a factor of 13.5, from 11.5 : 1 to 155.25 : 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Assuming the failure is in the calculator, not the operator, and the failures are independent, the probability of finishing with at least one working calculator is the complement of the probability that both will fail. That is ...
... P(≥1 working) = 1 - P(both fail) = 1 - P(fail)² = 1 - (1 - 0.92)² = 0.9936
2. The odds in favor of finishing an exam starting with only one calculator are 0.92 : 0.08 = 11.5 : 1.
If two calculators are brought to the exam, the odds in favor of at least one working calculator are 0.9936 : 0.0064 = 155.25 : 1.
This odds ratio is 155.25/11.5 = 13.5 times as good as the odds with only one calculator.
_____
My assessment is that there is significant gain from bringing a backup. (Personally, I might investigate why the probability of failure is so high. I have not had such bad luck with calculators, which makes me wonder if operator error is involved.)
Let x be the no of boxes.
120x = 14501
x = 14501/120
Upon division the quotient +1 = The no of boxes required and
The remainder is the amount of popcorn in the last box
No of boxes = 121 boxes
Kernels in the last box = 101 kernels
Answer:
4 star fruit.
Step-by-step explanation:
16/8 = 2
each star fruit is 2 dollars
so 8/2 = 4
you can buy 4 star fruit for 8 dollars.
since u know that there is 60 minutes in a hour do 60 times 3 and u will get 180.then do 180 divided by28 and u will get ur final answer which is 6 minutes and 12 seconds
