Biography

I'm a certified Engineer-in-Training in Civil Engineering exploring teaching opportunities to help fellow STEM and engineering students who are just starting to learn the basics. I've recently graduated in good academic standing and have begun working in my field and performing various calculations on a daily basis, applying engineering concepts and other related principles. I'm very people oriented and have diverse experience acting as a teacher/leader. I feel that I would do well as an educator.

Probability with Applications in Engineering, Science, and Technology

A stereo store is offering a special price on a complete set of components (receiver, compact disc player, speakers, turntable). A purchaser is offered a choice of manufacturer for each component:

$$\begin{array}{ll}{\text { Receiver: }} & {\text { Kenwood, Onkyo, Pioneer, Sony, Yamaha }} \\ {\text { Compact disc player: }} & {\text { Onkyo, Pioneer, Sony, Panasonic }} \\ {\text { Speakers: }} & {\text { Boston, Infinity, Polk }} \\ {\text { Turntable: }} & {\text { Onkyo, Sony, Teac, Technics }}\end{array}$$

A switchboard display in the store allows a customer to hook together any selection of components (consisting of one of each type). Use the Fundamental Counting Principle to answer the following questions:
(a) In how many ways can one component of each type be selected?
(b) In how many ways can components be selected if both the receiver and the compact disc player are to be Sony?
(c) In how many ways can components be selected if none is to be Sony?
(d) In how many ways can a selection be made if at least one Sony component is to be included?
(e) If someone flips switches on the selection in a completely random fashion, what is the probability that the system selected contains at least one Sony component? Exactly one Sony component?
