Answer:
The probability is 0.02667
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call D1 the event that the first radio is defective and D2 the event that the second radio is defective.
So, if we select both radios any factory, the probability P(D2/D1) that the second radio is defective given that the first one is defective is:
P(D2/D1) = P(D2∩D1)/P(D1)
Taking into account that 0.02 is the probability that a radio produced at factory A is defective, P(D2/D1) for factory A is:
At the same way, if both radios are from factory B, the probability P(D2/D1) that the second radio is defective given that the first one is defective is:
Finally, if both radios are from factory C, the probability P(D2/D1) that the second radio is defective given that the first one is defective is:
So, if the radios are equally likely to have been any factory, the probability to select both radios from any of the factories A, B or C are respectively:
P(A)=1/3
P(B)=1/3
P(C)=1/3
Then, the probability P(D2/D1) that the second radio is defective given that the first one is defective is:
P(D2/D1) = (1/3)*(0.02) + (1/3)*(0.01) + (1/3)*(0.05)
P(D2/D1) = 0.02667
All you need to do with this problem is convert into a square root. Then you'll get the answer

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A parabola is written in the form
(1)
where:
is the x-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola
is the y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola
is a scale factor
For the parabola in the problem, we know that the vertex has coordinates (4,-3), so we have:
(2)
From this last equation, we get that (3)
Substituting (2) and (3) into (1) we get the new expression:
(4)
We also know that the parabola contains the point (2,-1), so we can substitute
x = 2
f(x) = -1
Into eq.(4) and find the value of k:
So we also get:
So the equation of the parabola is:
(5)
Now we want to rewrite it in the standard form, i.e. in the form
To do that, we simply rewrite (5) expliciting the various terms, we find:
