a)
expected number of crash in 2 hour =2*6/24=0.5
P(computer will not crash in 2 hour) =P(X=0) =e-0.5*0.50/0! =0.6065
b)
expected number of crash in 5 hour =5*6/24=1.25
P(crash exactly twice )=P(X=2)=e-1.2522/2! =0.2238
c)
P(2 crashes in 5 hours )=P(X>=2) =1-P(X<=1)
=1-P(X=0)-P(X=1)
=1-e-1.2520/0!-e-1.2521/1! =1-0.6446 =0.3554
Your computer is getting old and you are wondering if it is worth replacing. Your computer,...
A computer crashes 6 times every 24 hours, what is the probability that the second crash will not happen in the next 5 hours?
Your desktop, on average, crashes 6 times in every 24 hours. 1. You are working from home and you have work to complete in 2 hours. What is the probability that your desktop will not crush in these 2 hour period? 2. What is the probability that your desktop will crush exactly twice in the next 5 hours? 3. What is the probability that 2 crushes happen in the next 5 hours? Please give clear explanation of all the steps...
Suppose we are thinking about replacing an old computer with a new one. The old one cost us $1,300,000; the new one will cost, $1,560,000. The new machine will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its five-year life. It will probably be worth about $300,000 after five years. The old computer is being depreciated at a rate of $260,000 per year. It will be completely written off in three years. If we don't replace it now, we will have to...
