Anton [14]

Answer:

a) 0.105 = 10.5% probability that it will not be discovered if it has an emergency locator.

b) 0.522 = 52.2% probability that it will be discovered if it does not have an emergency locator.

c) 0.064 = 6.4% probability that 7 of them are discovered.

Step-by-step explanation:

For itens a and b, we use conditional probability.

For item c, we use the binomial distribution along with the conditional probability.

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

a) If it has an emergency locator, what is the probability that it will not be discovered?

Event A: Has an emergency locator

Event B: Not located.

Probability of having an emergency locator:

66% of 72%(Are discovered).

20% of 100 - 72 = 28%(not discovered). So

$P(A) = 0.66*0.72 + 0.2*0.28 = 0.5312$

Probability of having an emergency locator and not being discovered:

20% of 28%. So

$P(A cap B) = 0.2*0.28 = 0.056$

Probability:

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.056}{0.5312} = 0.105$

0.105 = 10.5% probability that it will not be discovered if it has an emergency locator.

b) If it does not have an emergency locator, what is the probability that it will be discovered?

Probability of not having an emergency locator:

0.5312 of having. So

$P(A) = 1 - 0.5312 = 0.4688$

Probability of not having an emergency locator and being discovered:

34% of 72%. So

$P(A \cap B) = 0.34*0.72 = 0.2448$

Probability:

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.2448}{0.4688} = 0.522$

0.522 = 52.2% probability that it will be discovered if it does not have an emergency locator.

c) If we consider 10 light aircraft that disappeared in flight with an emergency recorder, what is the probability that 7 of them are discovered?

p is the probability of being discovered with the emergency recorder:

0.5312 probability of having the emergency recorder.

Probability of having the emergency recorder and being located:

66% of 72%. So

$P(A \cap B) = 0.66*0.72 = 0.4752$

Probability of being discovered, given that it has the emergency recorder:

$p = P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.4752}{0.5312} = 0.8946$

This question asks for P(X = 7) when $n = 10$ . So

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 7) = C_{10,7}.(0.8946)^{7}.(0.1054)^{3} = 0.064$

0.064 = 6.4% probability that 7 of them are discovered.

6b-9=-87 what is the answer

maw [93]

Answer:

Answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 9 to both sides.

$6b-9+9=-87+9\\6b=-78$

Divide both sides by 6

$\frac{6b}{6} =\frac{-78}{6} \\b=-13$

An airplane is flying from knoxville to new york. The distance it travels in miles, d, is related to the time in seconds, t, by

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

0.12 miles is it flying per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance d is related to time t in seconds is given by the equation as follows :

d =0.12 t

We need to find how many miles is it flying per second.

$\dfrac{d}{t}=0.12\\\\\dfrac{\text{miles}}{\text{second}}=0.12$

So, the speed of the airplane is 0.12 miles per second, Hence, 0.12 miles is it flying per second.

There are a total of 64 students in a drama club and a yearbook club. The drama club has 14 more students than the yearbook club

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

39 students in the drama club, 25 in the yearbook club.

Explanation:

X=number of students in the drama club
Y=number of students in the yearbook club

X+Y=64
X−14=y
Subtract the equations
X−X+Y+14=64−Y
Y+14=64−Y
Subtract 14, add Y
Y+Y+14−14=64−14−Y+Y
2Y=50
Divide by 2
Y=25
X+25=64
Subract 25
X=64−25
X=39
