A certain virus infects one in every 200 people. a test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 70% of the time when t

V125BC [204]

We're told that

$P(A)=\dfrac1{200}=0.005\implies P(A^C)=0.995$

$P(B\mid A)=0.7$

$P(B\mid A^C)=0.05$

a. We want to find $P(A\mid B)$ . By definition of conditional probability,

$P(A\mid B)=\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}$

By the law of total probability,

$P(B)=P(B\cap A)+P(B\cap A^C)=P(B\mid A)P(A)+P(B\mid A^C)P(A^C)$

Then

$P(A\mid B)=\dfrac{P(B\mid A)P(A)}{P(B\mid A)P(A)+P(B\mid A^C)P(A^C)}\approx0.0657$

(the first equality is Bayes' theorem)

b. We want to find $P(A^C\mid B^C)$ .

$P(A^C\mid B^C)=\dfrac{P(A^C\cap B^C)}{P(B^C)}=\dfrac{P(B^C\mid A^C)P(A^C)}{1-P(B)}\approx0.9984$

since $P(B^C\mid A^C)=1-P(B\mid A^C)$ .

An apple grower finds that if he plants 80 trees per acre, each tree will yield 26 bushels of fruit. He estimates that for each

hammer [34]

Answer: The maximum revenue is $7482 . To get a maximum yield , The number of trees per acre needed is 43.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Let x represent the extra tree

So for an additional tree the yield of each tree will decrease by 4 bushels.

(80 +x)(26-4x) by expanding

2080 - 320x +26x -4x^2

Using x= -b/2a

X= 294/ -8

X= - 36.75

So apparently he currently has far too many trees per acre. To get the maximum yield , she needs to reduce the number of trees per acre by 36.75

So the number of trees per acre for maximum yield is

80-36.75

=43.25

Approximately x=43

So by reducing he get extra bushel in the tune of 174.

Total revenue= 174 ×43× 1$

=$7482
