Fifteen telephones have just been received at an authorized service center. Five of these telephones are cellular, five are cordless, and the other five are corded phones. Suppose that these components are randomly allocated the numbers 1, 2, ……15 to establish the order in which they will be serviced. a. What is the probability that all the cordless phones are among the first ten to be serviced? b. What is the probability that after servicing ten of these phones, phones of only two of the three types remain to be serviced? c. What is the probability that two phones of each type are among the first six serviced?

a) The probability of getting all (ﬁve) cordless phones among the ﬁrst 10 is 0.0839.

b) The probability of having exactly two types in the last five is 0.24975.

c) To pick a sample of size 6 which contains two of each type of phone. The probability of selecting 2 phones from each type is 0.199800.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The ﬁrst ten serviced (without regard to order within the ﬁrst ten) constitute a random sample without replacement of size 10 from 15 phones.

So, such samples are: (Using Combination "C")

(15C10) $=3003\\$

We now regard the phones as of just two types: cordless or not-cordless. The not-cordless phones are the cellular and regular phones, and there are 10 such phones.

So, The number of ways to pick 5 cordless and 5 non-cordless is

(5C5) $*\\$ (10C5) =252

Thus the probability of getting all (ﬁve) cordless phones among the ﬁrst 10 is

$\frac{252}{3003} =0.0839$

b) Regard the last 5 phones (without regard to order within the last 5) as a sample with replacement from the 15 phones.There are (15C5) such samples.

Thus

There are (3C2)= 3 ways to choose the two types. For each such choice there are (10C5)= 252 possible ways to get a sample of size 5 from only these two types of phones.

also as the 2 of these samples contain all phones of same type so,

252-2 = 250

250 ways are to pick from these two types, having both type restricted.

then the probability will be

$\frac{3*(250)}{15C5} =0.249756$

c) We want to the ﬁnd the probability that two phones of each type are among the ﬁrst six serviced. The ﬁrst six serviced can be regarded, when ignoring the order among the ﬁrst 6, as an unordered sample of size 6 from 15 objects. so, there are (15C6) samples.

And there are (15C2)^3 ways to pick from each 3 types of phones.

Thus the probability of selecting such a sample is

$\frac{(15C2)^2}{(15C6)}=0.199800$

Nthe opening scene of the movie raiders of the lost ark, indiana jones replaces a golden statue with a bag of sand. the platform on which the statue is placed is designed to detect the mass of the statue. if the bag of sand has a different mass than the statue, then a mechanism triggers and destruction ensues. the density of gold is about 20\text{ g/cm}^320 g/cm 3 20, space, g, slash, c, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. the density of sand can be estimated at 2.5\text{ g/cm}^32.5 g/cm 3 2, point, 5, space, g, slash, c, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. the gold statue can be modeled as a cylinder with height 25\text{ cm}25 cm25, space, c, m and radius 8\text{ cm}8 cm8, space, c, m. in terms of \piπpi, what is the mass of sand indiana jones needs to avoid triggering the mechanism?
