1. O 0/7.69 points | Previous Answers WaneFMAC7 7:3 002 A surgical procedure requires choosing among four alternative methodologies. The first can result in five possible outcomes, the se possible outcomes. What is the total number of outcomes possible? 18 x outcomes 2. -7.69 points WaneFMAC7 7.3.003 An experiment requires a sequence of three steps. The first step can result in three possible outcomes, the second in five possible outcomes 3. -/7.69 points waneFMAC7 73.005 For the given decision algorithm, find how many outcomes are possible. HINT [See Example 1.] Alternative 1: Alternative 2: Step 1: 1 outcome Step 2: 4 outcomes Step 1: 5 outcomes Step 2: 2 outcomes Step 3: 1 outcome outcomes

Explanation / Answer

part(a)

as all these alternatives are independent

hence total no of outcomes=5+4+3+3=15  

as first alternative has possible outcomes=5

second has possible outcome=4

and third and fourth has possible outcome=3,3

part(b)here to find the total possible outcome,we use the multiplication principle

hevce total no of outcomes=3.5.2=30

as first step have possible outcome=3

second step have possible outcome=5

and third step have possible outcome=2
