An electronic office product contains 5100 electronic components. Assume that the probability that each component operates witho

ut failure during the useful life of the product is 0.999, and assume that the components fail independently. Approximate the probability that 2 or more of the original 5100 components fail during the useful life of the product. Use normal approximation. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.

Answer:

The probability that 2 or more of the original 5,100 components may fail during the useful life of the product is:

= 0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of operating without failure = 0.999

The probability of failed component = 0.001 (1 - 0.999)

The number of components of the electronic office product = 5,100

The number of components that may fail, given the above successful operation = 5.1 (0.001 * 5,100).

Therefore, the probability that 2 or more of the original 5,100 components may fail during the useful life of the product = 0.001

Probability of component failure is the likelihood that a component fails during the useful life of the product.  It is expressed as the number of likely failed components divided by the total number of components.  This result can be left in decimal form or expressed as a percentage.

Adam and beth each drove from smallville to crown city by different routes. adam drove an an average speed of 40 miles per hour
Anna71 [15]

Adam's average speed = 40 miles per hr

time for the trip = 30 minutes = 0.5 hrs

Distance travelled by adam = speed * time = 40 * 0.5 = 20 miles

Distance travelled by Beth is 5 miles longer means 20 + 5 = 25 miles

Time took by Beth is 20 minutes more means = 30 + 20 = 50 minutes = 0.83 hrs

Average speed of Beth = distance / time = 25 / 0.8333

Average speed of Beth = 30 miles : Answer

Hope it will help :)

julian want to buy a new ipod that costs $220. he goes into a store and sees that it is on sale and has a 35% discount. he will
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The final cost for him is;

\text{ \$154.44}

Explanation:

Given that the ipod costs $220;

C=\text{ \$220}

The store gives a 35% discount, which means he will only pay 65% of the original cost;

100\text{\%- 35\% = 65\%}

The store price is;

\begin{gathered} P=\text{ 65\% of \$220} \\ P=\frac{65}{100}\times\text{ \$220} \\ P=\text{ \$143} \end{gathered}

Also he will need to pay additional 8% sales tax on the discounted price P;

\begin{gathered} t=8\text{\% of P} \\ t=8\text{\% of \$143} \\ t=\frac{8}{100}\times\text{ \$143} \\ t=\text{ \$11.44} \end{gathered}

The final cost he need to pay is the sum of the discounted price and the sales tax;

\begin{gathered} F=P+t \\ F=\text{ \$143 + \$11.44} \\ F=\text{ \$154.44} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the final cost for him is;

\text{ \$154.44}
