Answer #1

Here we have given P( machine breaks down ) = 0.3

And number of days n = 10

We have asked to find P(machine breaks down k times) where k > 3

That is we have asked to find P( k > 3).

Hope this will help you. Thank you :)

Waterways is considering the replacement of an antiquated machine that has been slowing down production because of breakdowns and added maintenance. The operations manager estimates that this machine still has 2 more years of possible use. The machine produces an average of 50 units per day at a cost of $6.50 per unit, whereas other similar machines are producing twice that much. The units sell for $8.50. Sales are equal to production on these units, and production runs for 260...
