Answer:

sorry

Step-by-step explanation:

What is probability? Put simply, it is the chance of an event occurring. Probability is often expressed in quantifiable terms as either a percentage or a decimal: for example, the chance of a coin landing as heads is 50% . It is impossible to be certain you can correctly predict whether the coin will land heads or tails, which makes the act of flipping the coin a random event. We can however, calculate the probability of the coin landing heads or tails.

The probability that a random selected microprocessor from Intel will not malfunction 98.8% or 0.988

Given that Intel's microprocessors have a 1.2 % chance of malfunctioning

The chance or probability of happening ant event  A is given by equation (1)

[tex]\rm Probability\; of \; happening \; of \; event \; A = P(A).........(1) \\The \; Probability \; of \; same \; event \; not \; happening = P(\bar A) = 100 - P(A) ........(2) \\Where \; P(A) \; is\; expressed \; in \%[/tex]

Let one Intel microprocessor be selected at random then from equations (1) and (2) we can write that

P( Malfunctioning of Intel's microprocessor) + P( Non malfunctioning of Intel's microprocessor) = 100 %

According to the given situation  From equations (1) and (2) we can write that

[tex]\rm 1.2\% + P( Non\; malfunctioning\; of \; Intel's\; microprocessor) = 100\% \\ \\ P( Non \; malfunctioning\; of \; Intel's\; microprocessor) = 100\% - 1.2 \% \\P( Non \; malfunctioning\; of \; Intel's\; microprocessor) = 98.8\% = 0..988[/tex]

So we can conclude that the probability that a random selected microprocessor from Intel will not malfunction 98.8% or 0.988
