A company studied the number of lost-time accidents occurring at its Brownsville, Texas, plant. Historical records show that 6%

of the employees suffered lost-time accidents last year. Management believes that a special safety program will reduce such accidents to 5% during the current year. In addition, it estimates that 15% of employees who had lost-time accidents last year will experience a lost-time accident during the current year.
a. What percentage of the employees will experience lost-time accidents in both years?b. What percentage of the employees will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period?

Answer:

a

\% E =  0.9 \%

b

\%E_1 = 10.1 \%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The probability that an employees suffered lost-time accidents last year is P(e) =  0.06

The probability that an employees suffered lost-time accident during the current year is

P(c) =  0.05

The probability that an employee will suffer lost time during the current year given that the employee suffered lost time last year is

P(c | e) =  0.15

Generally the probability that an employee will experience lost time in both year is mathematically represented as

P(c \ n \ e) =  P(e) *  P(c \ |\ e)

=> P(c \ n \ e) =  0.06*   0.15

=> P(c \ n \ e) = 0.009

Generally the percentage of employees that will experience lost time in both year is mathematically represented as

\% E =  P(e \ n \ c ) * 100

=> \% E =  0.009 * 100

=> \% E =  0.9 \%

Generally the probability that an employee will experience at least one lost time accident over the two-year period is mathematically represented as

P(e \ u \ c) =  P(e) + P(c) - P(e \ n \  c)

=> P(e \ u \ c) =  0.06 + 0.05 - 0.009

=> P(e \ u \ c) =  0.101

Generally the percentage of the employees who will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period is mathematically represented as

\%E_1 = P(e \ u \ c) *  100

=> \%E_1 = 0.101*  100

=> \%E_1 = 10.1 \%
