A product is composed of four parts. In order for the product to function properly in a given situation, each of the parts must

function. Two of the parts have a .96 probability of functioning, and two have a probability of .99. What is the overall probability that the product will function properly

Answer:

P(working product) = .99*.99*.96*.96 = .0.903

Step-by-step explanation:

For the product to work, all four probabilities must come to pass, so that

P(Part-1)*P(Part-2)*P(Part-3)*P(Part-4)

where

P(Part-1) = 0.96

P(Part-2) = 0.96

P(Part-3) = 0.99

P(Part-4) = 0.99

As all parts are independent, so the formula is P(A∩B) = P(A)*P(B)

P (Working Product) =  P(Part-1)*P(Part-2)*P(Part-3)*P(Part-4)

P (Working Product) = 0.96*0.96*0.96*0.99*0.99

P(Working Product) = 0.903

Let P2 be the vector space of all polynomials of degree 2 or less, and let H be the subspace spanned by 10x2+4xâ1, 3xâ4x2+3, and
lord [1]

I suppose

H=\mathrm{span}\{10x^2+4x-1,3x-4x^2+3,5x^2+x-1\}

The vectors that span H form a basis for P_2 if they are (1) linearly independent and (2) any vector in P_2 can be expressed as a linear combination of those vectors (i.e. they span P_2).

  • Independence:

Compute the Wronskian determinant:

\begin{vmatrix}10x^2+4x-1&3x-4x^2+3&5x^2+x-1\\20x+4&3-8x&10x+1\\20&-8&10\end{vmatrix}=-6\neq0

The determinant is non-zero, so the vectors are linearly independent. For this reason, we also know the dimension of H is 3.

  • Span:

Write an arbitrary vector in P_2 as ax^2+bx+c. Then the given vectors span P_2 if there is always a choice of scalars k_1,k_2,k_3 such that

k_1(10x^2+4x-1)+k_2(3x-4x^2+3)+k_3(5x^2+x-1)=ax^2+bx+c

which is equivalent to the system

\begin{bmatrix}10&-4&5\\4&3&1\\-1&3&-1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}k_1\\k_2\\k_3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}a\\b\\c\end{bmatrix}

The coefficient matrix is non-singular, so it has an inverse. Multiplying both sides by that inverse gives

\begin{bmatrix}k_1\\k_2\\k_3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-\dfrac{6a-11b+19c}3\\\dfrac{3a-5b+2c}3\\\dfrac{15a-26b+46c}3\end{bmatrix}

so the vectors do span P_2.

The vectors comprising H form a basis for it because they are linearly independent.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Option d)

H_{0}: p = 0.75\\H_A: p \neq 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Three of four people believed that the state of the economy was the country's most significant concern.

They would like to test the new data against this prior belief.

The null hypothesis will state that the three of four people believed that the state of the economy was the country's most significant concern.

The alternate hypothesis will state that this is not true. It states that people believed that the state of the economy was the country's most significant concern is not the same.

p =\dfrac{3}{4} = 0.75

We design the null and the alternate hypothesis  

H_{0}: p = 0.75\\H_A: p \neq 0.75

Which statements are true of the function f(x) = 3(2.5)x? Check all that apply.
Neporo4naja [7]
For this case we have a function of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ x

 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate (for b> 1)
 x: independent variable
 y: dependent variable
 We then have the following function:
 f (x) = 3 (2.5) ^ x

 Using the definition, the following statements are correct:
 1) The function is exponential
 2) The function increases by a factor of 2.5 for each unit increase in x
 3) The domain of the function is all real numbers
