5 times 5 means there are 25 total choices

since there is a total of five questions and each question has one correct answer 5out of 25 are correct

so you have a 5/25 chance which simplifies to 1/5th probability

The probability of getting all 5 right would be 1/<span>3125

This is because each question has one choice. Making it a 1/5 chance for each question. 

Now if you combine if you add the rest you will have to calculate.

You would do the calculation by multiple the chance for a correct answer for each question together.

1/5 x 1/5 x 1/5 x 1/5 x 1/5 = 1/3125

I hope this helped!</span>

Eighty percent of the light aircraft that disappear while in flight in a certain country are subsequently discovered. Of the air
gladu [14]

Answer:

a) P(B'|A) = 0.042

b) P(B|A') = 0.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

80% of the light aircraft that disappear while in flight in a certain country are subsequently discovered

Of the aircraft that are discovered, 63% have an emergency locator,

whereas 89% of the aircraft not discovered do not have such a locator.

From the given information; it is suitable we define the events in order to calculate the probabilities.

So, Let :

A = Locator

B = Discovered

A' = No Locator

B' = No Discovered

So; P(B) = 0.8

P(B') = 1 - P(B)

P(B') = 1- 0.8

P(B') = 0.2

P(A|B) = 0.63

P(A'|B) = 1 - P(A|B)

P(A'|B) = 1- 0.63

P(A'|B) = 0.37

P(A'|B') = 0.89

P(A|B') = 1 - P(A'|B')

P(A|B') = 1 - 0.89

P(A|B') = 0.11

Also;

P(B ∩ A) = P(A|B) P(B)

P(B ∩ A) = 0.63 × 0.8

P(B ∩ A) = 0.504

P(B ∩ A') =  P(A'|B) P(B)

P(B ∩ A') = 0.37 × 0.8

P(B ∩ A') = 0.296

P(B' ∩ A) = P(A|B') P(B')

P(B' ∩ A) = 0.11 × 0.2

P(B' ∩ A) = 0.022

P(B' ∩ A') =  P(A'|B') P(B')

P(B' ∩ A') = 0.89 × 0.2

P(B' ∩ A') = 0.178

Similarly:

P(A) = P(B  ∩  A ) + P(B'  ∩  A)

P(A) = 0.504 + 0.022

P(A) = 0.526

P(A') = 1 - P(A)

P(A') = 1 - 0.526

P(A') =  0.474

The probability that it will not be discovered given that it has an emergency locator is,

P(B'|A) =  P(B' ∩ A)/P(A)

P(B'|A) = 0.022/0.526

P(B'|A) = 0.042

(b) If it does not have an emergency locator, what is the probability that it will be discovered?

The probability that it will be discovered given that it does not have an emergency locator is:

P(B|A') = P(B ∩ A')/P(A')

P(B|A') = 0.296/0.474

P(B|A') = 0.625
