Question

Transcribed Image Text:d. Illustrate the two-stage binary communication channel in c. above on a tree diagram with
their respective probability.

Transcribed Image Text:A simple binary communication channel carries messages by using two signals 0 and 1. It was
assumed that for a given binary channel, 40% of the time a 1 is transmitted; the probability that a
transmitted 0 is corectly received is 0.90; the probability that lis correctly received 0.95. This
information is illustrated in Figure 1 where
A= event that 1 is transmitted.
A= event that 0 is transmitted.
B = event that 1 is received.
B = event that 0 is received.

- Jay-Z has applied to both The School of Hard Knocks and The University of OG's. He thinks the probability that The School of Hard Knocks will admit him is 0.4, the probability that The University of OG's will admit him is 0.5, and the probability that both will admit him is 0.2. Creating a Venn Diagram is Helpful. What is the probability that Jay-Z gets into The School of Hard Knocks but not The University of OGʻs?arrow_forwardWhen LeBron James shoots a free throw, he hits with a probability of 0.9 and misses with a probability of 0.1. Assume that the result of his previous free throw (whether a hit or a miss), does not affect the probability with which he hits the current throw, i.e., for any free throw he shoots, he hits with a probability of 0.9 and misses with a probability of 0.1. When he hits a free throw, he makes one point and when he misses a free throw, he makes zero points. Answer the following questions with this information. Let P1 denote a random variable that represents the number of points LeBron James makes when he shoots only one free throw. 1. How many possible values can P1 take? Develop a probability distribution for P1 (Very important: Enter the values of P1 in increasing order as you go down in the table) P1 f(P1) (1 decimal) (1 decimal)arrow_forwardA binary communication channel carries data as one of two types of signals denoted by 0 and 1. Owing tonoise, a transmitted 0 is sometimes received as a 1 and a transmitted 1 is sometimes received as a 0.

- An integrated circuit contains 9.5x10 logic gates; each gate can be a logical AND or OR circuit. Assume the probability of a gate failure is p and that the failures are independent. If any gate in the circuit fails, the entire circuit will fail. What should be the value of p so that the probability that the integrated circuit functions is 0.95? 5.arrow_forwardA planned community has 150 homes, each with an automatic garage door opener. The door opener has seven switches that a homeowner can set to 0 or 1. For example, a door opener code might be 1001100. Assuming all the homes in the community are sold, what is the probability that at least two homeowners will set their switches to the same code, and will therefore be able to open each other's garage doors?arrow_forwardSuppose there are exactly three states of weather: sunny, cloudy, or rainy. If it is sunny today, then the probability is 3/4 that it will be sunny tomorrow, 1/8 that it will be cloudy tomorrow, and 1/8 that it will be rainy. If it is cloudy today, then the probability is 1/2 that it will be sunny tomorrow, 1/4 that it will be cloudy tomorrow, and 1/4 that it will be rainy. If it is rainy today, then the probability is 1/4 that it will be sunny tomorrow, 1/2 that it will be cloudy tomorrow, and 1/4 that it will be rainy. cloudy is From this Markov model, for any given day the probability that it will be sunny is rainy is Round your answers to three decimal places. andarrow_forward
