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:
ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the homestyle lemon drink is 5 : 19.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve the final ratio of lemon juice to water, let us start by determining the initial ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the first mix. This is done as follows:
Total volume of mixture = 60 liters
initial volume of water = 60 liters
initial volume of lemon juice = 0 liters
1) She removed 15 liters of the water and replaced it with 15 liters of pure lemon juice.
Volume of water = 60 - 15 = 45 liters
Volume of lemon juice = 15 liters
2) She removed 10 liters of the new mixture
Let us convert this amount removed into ratio:
New volumes of water and lemon juice after removing the 10 liters of mixture is calculated as follows:
3) and replaced it with 10 liters of water.
The final ratio of lemon juice to water:
Therefore, the final ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the homestyle lemon drink is 5 : 19.
