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?

The problem of traffic delay in a highway can be studied in the following way. Let us assume that the probability of no traffic delay in one period, given no traffic delay in previous period, is 0.85 and that the probability of finding a traffic delay in one period, given a delay in the previous period is 0.75. The period of time is 30 minutes.
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
