"How many grams of active ingredient is contained in 500mL of a solution which is 30% of the active ingredient?"
namely, what is 30% of 500?
Answer:
(1) The probability that the technician tests at least 5 computers before the 1st defective computer is 0.078.
(2) The probability at least 5 computers are infected is 0.949.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that a computer is defective is, <em>p</em> = 0.40.
(1)
Let <em>X</em> = number of computers to be tested before the 1st defect is found.
Then the random variable .
The probability function of a Geometric distribution for <em>k</em> failures before the 1st success is:
Compute the probability that the technician tests at least 5 computers before the 1st defective computer is found as follows:
P (X ≥ 5) = 1 - P (X < 5)
= 1 - [P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2) + P (X = 3) + P (X = 4)]
Thus, the probability that the technician tests at least 5 computers before the 1st defective computer is 0.078.
(2)
Let <em>Y</em> = number of computers infected.
The number of computers in the company is, <em>n</em> = 20.
Then the random variable .
The probability function of a binomial distribution is:
Compute the probability at least 5 computers are infected as follows:
P (Y ≥ 5) = 1 - P (Y < 5)
= 1 - [P (Y = 0) + P (Y = 1) + P (Y = 2) + P (Y = 3) + P (Y = 4)]
Thus, the probability at least 5 computers are infected is 0.949.
