Question

student ID: 62200095

Parametric Questions k = (The average of numbers of your Student ID) x 0.01 e.g. Student ID=61190003 k=(6+1+1+9+0+0+0+3)/8) x 0.01 = 20/8 x 0.01 = 0.025 1. The alignment between the magnetic media and head in a magnetic storage system affects the system's performance. Suppose that 10% of the read operations are degraded by skewed alignments, 5% of the read operations are degraded by off-center alignments, and the remaining read operations are properly aligned. The probability of a read error is k from a skewed alignment, 2k from an off-center alignment, and 0.1k from a proper alignment. a. What is the probability of a read error? b. If a read error occurs, what is the probability that it is due to a skewed alignment?
