Two pumps connected in parallel fail independently of one another on any given day. The probability that only the older pump wil

l fail is .10, and the probability that only the newer pump will fail is .05. What is the probability that the pump- ing system will fail on any given day (which happens if both pumps fail)?

Answer : Probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day = 0.005

Explanation:

Probability that only older pump fail = P(A) = 0.10

Probability that only newer pump fail = P(B) = 0.05

Since they are independent events ,

then the conditions will be

P(A∩B) = P(A). P(B)

             = 0.10 ×0.05

             =  0.005

Hence, the probability will fail on any given day = 0.005

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

For the sampling distribution,

a) Mean = μₓ = 55.0 students.

b) Standard Deviation = 1.8 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete Question is attached to this solution.

The Central limit theorem explains that for the sampling distribution, the mean is approximately equal to the population mean and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution is related to the population standard deviation through

σₓ = (σ/√n)

where σ = population standard deviation = 4

n = sample size = 5

Mean = population mean

μₓ = μ = 55 students.

Standard deviation

σₓ = (σ/√n) = (4/√5) = 1.789 students = 1.8 students to 1 d.p

Hope this Helps!!!

What does it mean in context of the example that Alyssa’s rate of change is greater than Sarah’s?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Part 1) The rate of change is the amount of money saved by week

Part 2) The amount of money saved weekly by Alyssa is greater than the amount of money saved weekly by Sarah.

Part 3) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

Part 1) What does the rate of change in the example represent?

Part 2)  What does it mean in context of the example that Alyssa’s rate of change is greater than Sarah’s?

Part 3) Write ordered pairs for the initial values of each function. Tell what the initial values represent

Part 1) we know that

The rate of change is the slope or unit rate of the linear equation

The formula of slope is "rise over run", where the "rise" (means change in y, up or down) and the "run" (means change in x, left or right)

In this context the rate of change is the amount of money saved by week

Part 2) we know that

Alyssa’s rate of change is equal to $8 per week

Sarah’s rate of change is equal to $6 per week

That means ----> The amount of money saved weekly by Alyssa is greater than the amount of money saved weekly by Sarah.

Part 3) we know that

The initial value or y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

In this context , the initial value is the amount of money available at the time of beginning to save

so

<em>Sarah's Savings</em>

Looking at the graph

The initial value is the point (0,8)

That means ----> At the beginning (x=0), Sarah already had $8 saved.

<em>Alyssa's Savings</em>

Looking at the graph

The initial value is the point (0,0)

That means ----> At the begin (x=0), Alyssa had nothing saved.
