For each day that Sasha travels to work, the probability that she will experience a delay due to traffic is 0.2. Each day can be considered independent of the other days. In the question, What is the probability that Sasha’s first delay due to traffic will occur after the fifth day of work travel? Why is it that the answer is 0.32768? How did we get the solution?

solve with steps Three different machines A1, A2, A3 were used for the producing a large batch of similar manufactured items. Suppose that 10% of items are produced by machine A1, 20% by A2 and 40% by A3. Suppose further that 1%of the items produced by A1, 2% by A2 and 3% by A3 machine are defective. Suppose one item is selected from the entire batch and it is found to be defective. Calculate the probability that this item was produced bymachine A2
A BSCE student is taking Calculus 2 and Engineering Data Analysis courses. The probability that he will pass Calculus 2 and Engineering Data Analysis is 2/3and 4/9, respectively. What is the probability that he will pass both courses if the probability of passing at least one course is 4/5.
Solve it fast and correctly. I will rate accordingly with multiple votes. Need 100% correct answer. There are eight seats at a rectangular table - three on each of the longer sides and one on each of the shorter sides. Six adults and two children sit around the table, with each seating configuration equally likely. What is the probability that the two children will end up seating next to each other on one of the longer sides of the table?

The route used by a certain motorist in commuting to work contains two intersections with traffic signals. The probability that he must stop at the first signal is 0.45, the analogous probability for the second signal is 0.5, and the probability that he must stop at at least one of the two signals is 0.9. (a) What is the probability that he must stop at both signals? X (b) What is the probability that he must stop at the first signal but not at the second one? X (c) What is the probability that he must stop at exactly one signal?

Jack has just been given a ten-question multiple choice quiz in history class. Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct. Since Jack has not attended class recently, he does not know any of the answers. Assuming Jack guesses randomly on all ten questions, find the probability that he will answer six or more of the questions correctly and avoid an F.

The probability that a new computer functions for over 10,000 hours is 0.8, the probability that it functions for over 20,000 hours is 0.4 and the probability that it functions for over 30,000 hours is 0.1. If a new computer is still working after 10,000 hours, what is the probability that i. its total life will exceed 20,000 hours;ii. its additional life will exceed 20,000 hours?
Please provide steps for how you got the solution to the problem provided below. A machine is used to produce one of each of two types of product (A and B) on alternating days, i.e., if A is produced today then B will be produced tomorrow and vice versa. Each day, there is a probability that the machine malfunctions. Malfunction probability after a day of operation is 0.03 when producing A and 0.07 when producing B. Once the machine malfunctions, it is no longer operable and will not be replaced until sometime in the future (beyond modeling horizon). Model the system as a Markov chain (give transition matrix on your paper). Suppose that on Monday product A was produced. Find the probability that the machine is still operable by the morning of Thursday. Your model should have a state ”malfunction”, which cannot transition to any other state other than itself.
