P(most favorable outcome) = 1 -(0.03 +0.16 -0.01) = 0.82

"repair fails" includes the "infection and failure" case, as does "infection". By adding the probability of "repair fails" and "infection", we count the "infection and failure" case twice. So, we have to subtract the probability of "infection and failure" from the sum of "repaire fails" and "infection" in order to count each bad outcome only once.
The probability of a good outcome is the complement of the probability of a bad outcome.
Answer:
15x^2 - 12x^3
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangular block has 3 parts that play into its volume. length, width and height. The question gives us length and width in the form of x and 3x, so height is what's missing.
It gives us a bit more information saying the sum of its edges is 20. We also have to ask how many lengths, widths and heights are there. That may be a bit hard to understand, but is you are looking at a block I could ask how many edges are vertical, just going up and down. These would be the heights. There are 4 total, and this goes the same for length and width, so 4*length + 4*width and 4*height = 20.
Taking that and plugging in x for length and 3x for width (or you could do it the other way around, it doesn't matter, you get:
4*x + 4*3x + 4*height = 20
4x + 12x + 4h = 20
16x + 4h = 20
4h = 20 - 16x
h = 5 - 4x
Now we have h in terms of x, which lets us easily find the volume just knowing x. To find the volume of a rectangular block you just multiply the length, width and height.
x*3x*(5-4x)
3x^2(5-4x)
15x^2 - 12x^3
Question doesn't give a specific value for x at all so you should be done there. Any number you plug in for x should get you the right answer
Answer:
The answer is 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps. So the question is asking you odds of 8 which is the denominator already. So then it asks the odd to pick eight. So thats how i got 1/8.
