An electronic system has three major circuit boards, A, B and C. These boards have respective software support in the ratio, (30

%) : (30 %) : (40 %). Further, percentages of software failure observed in A, B and C respectively are: (4 %), (5 %) and (3 %). Suppose a random failure is observed. What is the probability that this failure is from A, B or C?

Answer:

30.77% probability that this failure is from A.

38.46% probability that this failure is from B.

30.77% probability that this failure is from C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional probability:

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.

In this question:

30% probability of board A being chosen.

Board A has a 4% probability of failure.

30% probability of board B being chosen.

Board B has a 5% probability of failure.

40% probability of board C being chosen.

Board B has a 3% probability of failure.

For all these questions:

Event A: Failure

So

P(A) = 0.3*0.04 + 0.3*0.05 + 0.4*0.03 = 0.039

Probability that this failure is from A:

Event B: Board A is chosen.

Intersection:

Failure from board A:

P(A \cap B) = 0.3*0.04 = 0.012

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.012}{0.039} = 0.3077

30.77% probability that this failure is from A.

Probability that this failure is from B:

Event B: Board B is chosen.

Intersection:

Failure from board B:

P(A \cap B) = 0.3*0.05 = 0.015

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.015}{0.039} = 0.3846

38.46% probability that this failure is from B.

Probability that this failure is from C:

Event B: Board C is chosen.

Intersection:

Failure from board C:

P(A \cap B) = 0.4*0.03 = 0.012

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.012}{0.039} = 0.3077

30.77% probability that this failure is from C.

If total sales in the ice cream category were $4.4 billion and Breyer’s sales were $650,417,792, what would be its market share?
Tresset [83]

Answer:

14.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for market share = Total sales of the company at a particular period/ Total sales of the market × 100%

Total sales of the company = Breyer's sales = $650,417,792

Total sales of the market = Total sales in the ice cream category market = $4.4 billion

= $650,417,792/ $4,400,000,000, × 100

= 14.782222545%

Therefore, approximately to the nearest tenth, Breyer's market share is 14.8 %
