2. (a) The time to recharge the flash is tested in three cell-phone cameras. The probability that a camera meets the recharge specification is 0.8, and the cameras perform independently. i. Find the probability that the first and second cameras pass the test and the third one fails? ii. What is the probability that the 3rd failure is obtained in five or fewer tests? (b) Changes in airport procedures require considerable planning. Arrival rates of aircraft are important factors that must be taken into account. Suppose small aircrafts arrive at a certain airport, according to a Poisson process, at the rate of 6 per hour.

Consider the time to recharge the flash in cell-phone cameras as in Example 3.1. Assume that the probability that a camera passes the test is 0.8 and the cameras perform independently. Determine the following: (a) Probability that the second failure occurs on the tenth camera tested. (b) Probability that the second failure occurs in tests of four or fewer cameras. (b) Expected number of cameras tested to obtain the third failure.

Consider the time to recharge the flash in cell-phone cameras. Assume that the probability that a camera passes the test is 0.8 and the cameras perform independently. Determine probability that the second failure occurs on the tenth camera tested. Use 4 decimal places.
