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.)

Answer:
the rate of change in volume is dV/dt = 4π mm³/s = 12.56 mm³/s
Step-by-step explanation:
since the volume V of a cylinder is related with the height H and the radius R through:
V = πR²*H
then the change in time is given by the derivative with respect to time t
dV/dt = (∂V/∂R)*(dR/dt) + (∂V/∂H)*(dH/dt)
the change in volume with radius at constant height is
(∂V/∂R) = 2*πR*H
the change in volume with height at constant radius is
(∂V/∂H) = πR²
then
dV/dt = 2π*R*H *(dR/dt) + πR²*(dH/dt)
replacing values
dV/dt = 2π* 2 mm * 20 mm * (-0.1 mm/s) + π (2 mm) ²* 3 mm/s = 4π mm³/s
dV/dt = 4π mm³/s = 12.56 mm³/s
Answer: Annabelle is using the a measure of central tendency defined as the Mode.
Step-by-step explanation: A measure of central tendency in its simplest definition is a single value or measure that can safely be used to represent all members belonging to an entire set of given data. Hence, as a good illustration, one figure can be used to confidently represent all other ninety nine figures where a set of one hundred figures were given.
The mean, median and mode are commonly accepted measures of central tendency.
The mode is the most frequently occurring value in a given set of data. As such, the modal value is statistically acceptable as a representative of the entire set of values or data.
If Annabelle measures the sides of 15 right triangles and based on her observations, she concludes that for any right triangle the sum of the squares of the two legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse, what she has done is taking the most frequently occurring value, and in her experiment, the most frequent of all observed data satisfies the Pythagorean Theorem.
That is why Annabelle can confidently make her assumption.
