A store has 80 modems in its inventory, 30 coming from source a and the remainder from source

1 answer:

5 0

The number of defective modems in the inventory is 20%⋅ 30 + 8%⋅ 50 = 10 (out of 80). Note that the number of defectives in the inventory is fixed, i.e., we are not told that there is 1 8 probability that a modem in the inventory is defective, but rather that exactly 1 8 of all modems are defective. The probability that exactly two modems in a random sample of five are defective is = 0.102

Answer:

The probability is $P(B' n A ' ) =$ 16%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

A is the event that the chip was "made by company A"

B is the event that a chip "survives 500 temperature cycles"

The probability that a computer chip survives more than 500 temperature cycles is

$P(B) = 42$ % $= 0.42$

The probability that does not survive more than 500 temperature cycles and it was manufactured by company A is $P(A | B' ) = 0.73$

The probability that the computer chip is not manufactured by company A and does not survive more than 500 temperature cycles is mathematically evaluated as

$P(B' n A ' ) = P (B' | A' ) P(B ')$
