A certain system can experience three different types of defects. Let Ai (i = 1,2,3) denote the event that the system has a defe

ct of type i. Suppose that the following probabilities are true. P(A1) = 0.14 P(A2) = 0.09 P(A3) = 0.09 P(A1 ∪ A2) = 0.16 P(A1 ∪ A3) = 0.18 P(A2 ∪ A3) = 0.14 P(A1 ∩ A2 ∩ A3) = 0.02 (a) What is the probability that the system does not have a type 1 defect? (b) What is the probability that the system has both type 1 and type 2 defects? (c) What is the probability that the system has both type 1 and type 2 defects but not a type 3 defect? (d) What is the probability that the system has at most two of these defects?

a.

P({A_1}^c)=1-P(A_1)=\boxed{0.86}

b.

P(A_1\cap A_2)=P(A_1)+P(A_2)-P(A_1\cup A_2)=\boxed{0.07}

c. By the law of total probability,

P({A_3}^c)=P((A_1\cap A_2)\cap{A_3}^c)+P((A_1\cap A_2)^c\cap{A_3}^c)

According to the inclusion/exclusion principle,

P((A_1\cap A_2)^c\cap{A_3}^c)=P((A_1\cap A_2)^c)+P({A_3}^c)-P((A_1\cap A_2)^c\cup{A_3}^c)

but by DeMorgan's law,

(A_1\cap A_2)^c\cup{A_3}^c={A_1}^c\cup{A_2}^c\cup{A_3}^c=(A_1\cap A_2\cap A_3)^c

So

P((A_1\cap A_2)^c\cap{A_3}^c)=(1-P(A_1\cap A_2))+(1-P(A_3))-(1-P(A_1\cap A_2\cap A_3))

and from there we find

P(A_1\cap A_2\cap{A_3}^c)=P((A_1\cap A_2\cap A_3)^c)-P((A_1\cap A_2)^c)=\boxed{0.05}

d. The event of having at most two of these defects is complementary to the event that all three defects occur simultaneously:

P((A_1\cap A_2\cap A_3)^c)=1-P(A_1\cap A_2\cap A_3)=\boxed{0.98}

Parallel to y=2x+1<br> Goes through (5,4)
Ket [755]
      y = mx + b
      y = 2x + 1
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 4 = 2(x - 5)
y - 4 = 2(x) - 2(5)
y - 4 = 2x - 10
  + 4          + 4
     y = 2x - 6

James has three times as many ties as shirts if he has a total of 64 items how many of each does he have
Ahat [919]

Answer:

16 shirts and 48 ties

you start with 64 and divide it by 4 i got four cause it says that James had THREE times as many ties as shirts leaving him with leaving him with 3 groups of ties and 1 group of shirts   .  dividing 64 by 4 leaves you with 16 which is the amount of shirts he has and then you would multiply 16 by 3 to get the amount of ties he has.
