Will give thumbs up. please answer all 3 letters.

Refer to the figure below in which surge protectors p and q are used to protect an expensive high-definition television It there is a surge in the voltage, the surge protector reduces it to a safe level. Assume that each surge protector has a 0 95 probability of working correctly when a voltage surge occurs. Complete parts (a) through (c) below Series Configuration Parallel Configuration a. If the two surge protectors are arranged in series, what is the probability that a voltage surge will not damage the television? [] (Do not round.) b.If the two surge protectors are arranged in parallel, what is the probability that a voltage surge wil not damage the television? Do not round) c. Which arrangement should be used for better protection? Th e series arrangment provides better protection because it has a higher probability of protection The paralel arrangment provides better protection because it has a lower probability of protection ahilits of entaction

Explanation / Answer

a) probability that surge protectors work =P(both works) =0.95*0.95 =0.9025

b) probability that surge protectors work =1-P(at least one works )=1-0.05*0.05 =0.9975

c)

the parallel arrangement provide better protection becuase it has higher probability of protection
