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:
33%
Step-by-step explanation:
In 2003, there were 78.9 thousand jobs in the industry and it increases annually by 2.65 thousand jobs from 2003 to 2013.
Hence, from 2003 to 2013, i.e. 10 years the jobs have increased by (2.65×10) = 26.5 thousand.
Therefore, the percent increase in jobs in the industry from 2003 to 2013 is given by
% ≈ 33%. (Answer)
