Answer:
probability that all of the sprinklers will operate correctly in a fire: 0.0282
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this question we will use Binomial probability distribution because:
- In the question it is given that the sprinklers activate correctly or not independently.
- The number of outcomes are two i.e. sprinklers activate correctly or not.
A binomial distribution is a probability of a success or failures outcomes in an repeated multiple or n times.
Number of outcomes of this distributions are two.
The formula is:
b(x; n, P) =
b = binomial probability also represented as P(X=x)
x =no of successes
P = probability of a success on a single trial
n = no of trials
is calculated as:
= n! / x!(n – x)!
= 10! / 10!(10-10)!
= 1
According to given question:
probability of success i.e. p = 0.7 i.e. probability of a sprinkler to activate correctly.
number of trials i.e. n = 10 as number of sprinklers are 10
To find: probability that all of the sprinklers will operate correctly in a fire
X = 10 because we have to find the probability that "all" of the sprinklers will operate correctly and there are 10 sprinklers so all 10 of them
So putting these into the formula:
P(X=x) =
= C₁₀,₁₀ * 0.7¹⁰ * (1-0.7)¹⁰⁻¹⁰
= 1 * 0.0282 * (0.3) ⁰
= 1 * 0.0282 * 1
P(X=x) = 0.0282
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Determine the slope of the dashed line
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
we have
(-3,1) and (0,3)
substitute
step 2
Find the equation of the dashed line in slope intercept form
we have
---> given problem
substitute
step 3
Find the equation of the inequality
we know that
Is a dashed line and everything to the left of the line is shaded
so
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
