Module 4 Exam
Exam Page 1
A factory has eight safety systems. During an emergency, the probability of any one
of the safety systems failing is .08. What is the probability that six or more safety
systems will fail during an emergency?


f(x) = ( (n!) / (x!(n-x)!) ) x ( (p^x) x ((1-
p)^n-x)) ) n = 8
x = 6, 7, 8 (number of failures)
p = 0.08


6 failures:
n=8
x=6
p = 0.8
n-x = 8-6 = 2
( (8!) / (6!(2)!) ) x ( (0.08^6) x ((1-0.08)^2)) ) = 6.2 x 10^-6


7 failures:
n=8
x=7
p = 0.8
n-x = 8-7 = 1
( (8!) / (7!(1)!) ) x ( (0.08^7) x ((1-0.08)^1)) ) = 1.54 x 10^-7


8 failures:
n=8
x=8
p = 0.8
n-x = 8-8 = 0
( (8!) / (8!(0)!) ) x ( (0.08^8) x ((1-0.08)^0)) ) = 1.68 x 10^-9




f(6) = 6.21 x 10^-6

, f(7) = 1.54 x 10^-7
f(8) = 1.68 x 10^-9


(6.21 x 10^-6) + (1.54 x 10^-7) + (1.68 x 10^-9) = 6.355x10^-6


Probability of 6,7, and 8 failing during an emergency = 6.36 x 10^-6




Answer Key
A factory has eight safety systems. During an emergency, the probability of any one of the safety systems
failing is .08. What is the probability that six or more safety systems will fail during an emergency?
