The quality of computer disks is measured by sending the disks through a certifier which counts the number of missing pulses. A certain brand of computer disks averages 0.1 missing pulse per disk. Let the random variable x denote the number of missing pulses.
What is the distribution of x?
Type of distribution:
______________
Mean of distribution:
______________
Find the probability the next inspected disk will have no missing pulse.
______________
Find the probability the next disk inspected will have more than one missing pulse.
______________
Find the probability neither of the next two disks inspected will contain any missing pulse.
______________
Computer Disks
Storage devices used to record and store digital information, such as hard drives, floppy disks, or optical discs.
Missing Pulses
Refers to the absence or loss of expected pulses in a sequence, often in the context of electronic or digital signals.
