Answer:

  6/7 ≈ 85.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a 0 was transmitted and received is 0.5·0.9 = 0.45.

The probability that a 1 was transmitted and a 0 received is 0.5·0.15 = 0.075.

Then the probability that a 0 was received is 0.45 +0.075 = 0.525.

The probability of interest is ...

  p(0 transmitted | 0 received) = p(0 transmitted & received)/p(0 received)

  = 0.45/0.525 = 6/7 ≈ 85.7%

Dan's car depreciates at a rate of 15% per year. By what percentage has Dan's car depreciated after 3 years?​
Pavlova-9 [17]

The percentage of deprecation of the car in the third year is 38.59%.

<h3>What is deprecation?</h3>

Depreciation is the decline in the value of an asset as a result of wear and tear.

Deprecation in year 1 = 15%

Deprecation in year 2 = 15% x (100 - 15%) = 12.75%

Deprecation in year 3 = 15% x (85% - 12.75) = 10.84%

Sum of deprecation = 38.59%
