Answer:

$p = \frac{16}{9} \\$

Step-by-step explanation:

$6(3p - 2) = 20 \\ 18p - 12 = 20 \\ 18p = 32 \\ \frac{18p}{18} = \frac{32}{18} \\ p = \frac{16}{9}$

Answer:

$p=\frac{16}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$6(3p-2)=20$

Distribute the brackets.

$6(3p)+6(-2)=20$

$18p-12=20$

Add $12$ on both sides.

$18p-12+12=20+12$

$18p=20+12$

$18p=32$

Divide $18$ on both sides.

$\frac{18p}{18}=\frac{32}{18}$

$p=\frac{16}{9}$

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The probability is $P(B' n A ' ) =$ 16%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

A is the event that the chip was "made by company A"

B is the event that a chip "survives 500 temperature cycles"

The probability that a computer chip survives more than 500 temperature cycles is

$P(B) = 42$ % $= 0.42$

The probability that does not survive more than 500 temperature cycles and it was manufactured by company A is $P(A | B' ) = 0.73$

The probability that the computer chip is not manufactured by company A and does not survive more than 500 temperature cycles is mathematically evaluated as

$P(B' n A ' ) = P (B' | A' ) P(B ')$

Where $B' \ and \ A'$ are a A and B complements and | represented AND operator

$P(B' n A ' ) = [1 - P (B' | A )] [1 - P(B )]$

substituting values

$P(B' n A ' ) = [1 - 0.73] [1 - 0.42 ]$

$P(B' n A ' ) = (0.27 )(0.58)$

$P(B' n A ' ) =0.16$

$P(B' n A ' ) =$ 16%
