The probability that a certain type of chip will fail after installation is 0.15. A memory board for a computer contains 5 such chips. The operation will be satisfactory if two or more of the chips on the board do not fail. a) What is the probability that a memory board operates satisfactorily? b) If there are six such memory boards in each computer, what is the probability that five of them operate satisfactorily? c) Find the probability that the seventh chips installed is the third chip that fails after installation.

An integrated circuit contains 9.5x10 logic gates; each gate can be a logical AND or OR circuit. Assume the probability of a gate failure is p and that the failures are independent. If any gate in the circuit fails, the entire circuit will fail. What should be the value of p so that the probability that the integrated circuit functions is 0.95? 5.
A platter contains 48 doughnuts: 26 cake, 13 glazed, and nine jelly-filled. Suppose two doughnuts are randomly selected in succession without replacement. Find the probability (to 4 decimal places) of selecting two cake doughnuts. A. 0.0691 B. 0.2881 C. 0.2934 D. 0.5417
A planned community has 150 homes, each with an automatic garage door opener. The door opener has seven switches that a homeowner can set to 0 or 1. For example, a door opener code might be 1001100. Assuming all the homes in the community are sold, what is the probability that at least two homeowners will set their switches to the same code, and will therefore be able to open each other's garage doors?
