Two pumps connected in parallel fail independently of one another on any given day. The probability that only the older pump will fail is 0.15, and the probability that only the newer pump will fail is 0.10. What is the probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day (which happens if both pumps fail)

Answers

Answer 1

The probability of the pumping system failing on any given day is 0.015, or 1.5 percent.

Given data:

To find the probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day,  consider the probabilities of different failure scenarios for the two pumps.

Let's denote the events as follows:

A = Only the older pump fails

B = Only the newer pump fails

P(A) = 0.15 (probability that only the older pump fails)

P(B) = 0.10 (probability that only the newer pump fails)

To find the probability that both pumps fail, which can be denoted as the event A ∩ B.

Since the two pumps fail independently of each other, use the multiplication rule for independent events to calculate the probability of both events occurring:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B)

Substituting the given probabilities:

P(A ∩ B) = 0.15 * 0.10

= 0.015

Hence, the probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day (when both pumps fail) is 0.015 or 1.5%.

Answers

Answer:

56.52 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference Formula: C = 2πr

Since we are given radius r = 9, simply plug it into the formula:

C = 2π(9)

C = 18π

C = 56.5487

Answer:

56.5

Suppose that 3 is a factor of a, a is a divisor of 12, and a is positive. What is the number of possible values of a?

Answers

Answer: the number of possible values of a are 3 and 6

Explanation:
Since a is a divisor of 12
Then let’s see what are the divisor for 12
12= 6 x 2
12= 3 x 4
And we know that 3 is a factor of a
So if a was 3 then 3/3 is exactly 1
And if a was 6 then 6/3 is exactly 2 with no remainder

And 3 and 6 are also the divisor of 12
12/6=2
12/3=4
So a should be 3 and 6

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

12 is divisible by: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Because 3 is a factor of a, that means 3 multiplied by another number equals a. Additionally, a is a divisor of 12, meaning a multiplied by another number equals 12.

Out of the numbers, 12 is divisible by, only 3 are also divisible by 3: 3, 6, 12 This gives three possible values of a.

Lisa drew three circles to form a figure. The areas of the circles were in the
ratio 1:4:16. She then shaded some parts of the figure as shown.
What fraction of the figure was shaded?​

Answers

Answer:

Fraction of the figure shaded = [tex]\frac{13}{16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of the areas of the given circles are 1 : 4 : 16

Then the radii of the circles will be in the ratio = [tex]\sqrt{1}:\sqrt{4}:\sqrt{16}[/tex]

                                                                             = 1 : 2 : 4

If the radius of the smallest circle = x units

Then the radius of the middle circle = 2x units

and the radius of the largest circle = 4x units

Area of the smallest circle = πx²

Area of the middle circle = π(2x)² = 4πx²

Area of the largest circle = π(4x)²= 16πx²

Area of the region which is not shaded in the middle circle = πx²(4 - 1)

                                                                                                  = 3πx²

Therefore, area of the shaded region = Area of the largest circle - Area of the region which is not shaded

= 16πx² - 3πx²

= 13πx²

Fraction of the figure which is not shaded = [tex]\frac{\text{Area of the shaded region}}{\text{Area of the largest circle}}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{13\pi x^{2} }{16\pi x^{2} }[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{13}{16}[/tex]

The number of chocolate chips in a bag of chocolate chip cookies is approximately normally distributed with mean 1261 and a standard deviation of 118. ​(a) Determine the 30th percentile for the number of chocolate chips in a bag. ​(b) Determine the number of chocolate chips in a bag that make up the middle 98​% of bags. ​(c) What is the interquartile range of the number of chocolate chips in a bag of chocolate chip​ cookies?

Answers

Answer:

(A) 1199.168

(B) 1503.372

(C) 159.17728

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) To determine the 30th percentile for the number of chocolate chips in the bag, we find the z-score for the 30th percentile.

Found using a z-table or z-calculator, the z-score for the 30th percentile is -0.524

The formula for finding X (the number of items in a given percentile) is:

X = M + Z(S.D.)

Where M is the mean, Z is the specific z-score of the sought percentile and S.D. is the standard deviation.

So for the 30th percentile,

X = 1261 + (-0.524)(118)

X = 1261 - 61.832 = 1199.168

(B) The number of chocolate chips that make up the middle 98% of chips in the bag is

X = 1261 + (2.054)(118)

X = 1261 + 242.372 = 1503.372

(C) For normal distributions, Interquartile range is Q3 - Q1, that is; 3rd quartile minus 1st quartile.

This is within 1.34896 standard deviations of the mean.

IQR = (1.34896)(118)

IQR = 159.17728

Using the unit circle, determine the value of cos(-150°).

Answers

Answer:  [tex]-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

Explanation:

The identity we'll use is cos(-x) = cos(x) for any value of x.

So cos(-150) = cos(150).

Then locate the angle 150 on the unit circle. The terminal point is [tex]\left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \frac{1}{2}\right)[/tex]

The x coordinate of this terminal point is the value of cos(150).

Answer:

Cos(-150°)=-√3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-150° is found at the third quadrant so the cost value at third quadrant is negative

Cos(-150°)= -cos(30)=-cos(210)

Cos(-150°)=- (√3/2)

Cos(-150°)=-√3/2

Alternate hypothesis = H₁ = There is a relationship between voles and food preference.

Expected meadow vole/apple slices = 29.983051

Expected common vole/apple slices = 28.016949

Expected meadow vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 31.016949

Expected common vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 28.983051

Chi-square value = χ² = 2.154239

Degree of freedom = 1

Critical value = 3.841

χ² < Critical value

We failed to reject H₀

We do not have significant evidence at the given significance level to show that there is a relationship between voles and food preference.

Step-by-step explanation:

So he conducted a study where he used a peanut butter-oatmeal mixture in half the traps and the normal apple slices in his remaining traps to see if there was a food preference between the two different voles.

Null hypothesis = H₀ = There food preferences among vole species are independent of one another.

Alternate hypothesis = H₁ = There is a relationship between voles and food preference.

Data collected by Dr. Pagels:

                                              meadow voles     common voles      Row Total

apple slices                                     26                          32                      58

Column Total                                   61                          57                     118

Where 118 is the grand total.

The expected number is given by

Expected = (row total)×(column total)/grand total

Expected meadow vole/apple slices = 58×61/118

Expected meadow vole/apple slices = 29.983051

Expected common vole/apple slices = 58×57/118

Expected common vole/apple slices = 28.016949

Expected meadow vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 60×61/118

Expected meadow vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 31.016949

Expected common vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 60×57/118

Expected common vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 28.983051

The chi-square statistic value is given by

χ² = Σ(Observed - Expected)²/Expected

χ² = (26 - 29.983051)²/29.983051 + (32 - 28.016949)²/28.016949 + (35 - 31.016949)²/31.016949 + (25 - 28.983051)²/28.983051

χ² = 2.154239

The degrees of freedom is given by

DoF = (row - 1)×(col - 1)

For the given case, we have 2 rows and 2 columns

DoF = (2 - 1)×(2 - 1)

DoF = 1

The given level of significance = 0.05

The critical value from the chi-square table at α = 0.05 and DoF = 1 is found to be

Critical value = 3.841

Conclusion:

Reject H₀ If χ² > Critical value

We reject the Null hypothesis If the calculated chi-square value is more than the critical value.

For the given case,

χ² < Critical value

We failed to reject H₀

We do not have significant evidence at the given significance level to show that there is a relationship between voles and food preference.

Answers

Answer:

A. BA + 2πrh

C. 2πr² + 2πrh

Step-by-step explanation:

height of cylinder = h

Radius of cylinder = r

=>Lateral area of cylinder = LA (THis is the area of the cylinder excluding the area of its circular bases)

L.A of a cylinder = 2πrh

=>Base area = BA (this is the area of both circular bases of the cylinder)

Area of circle = πr²

Area of the 2 circular bases of the cylinder (BA) = 2(πr²) = 2πr²

=>Surface area of a right cylinder = B.A + L.A
