Anton [14]

Answer:

a) 0.105 = 10.5% probability that it will not be discovered if it has an emergency locator.

b) 0.522 = 52.2% probability that it will be discovered if it does not have an emergency locator.

c) 0.064 = 6.4% probability that 7 of them are discovered.

Step-by-step explanation:

For itens a and b, we use conditional probability.

For item c, we use the binomial distribution along with the conditional probability.

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

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.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

a) If it has an emergency locator, what is the probability that it will not be discovered?

Event A: Has an emergency locator

Event B: Not located.

Probability of having an emergency locator:

66% of 72%(Are discovered).

20% of 100 - 72 = 28%(not discovered). So

P(A) = 0.66*0.72 + 0.2*0.28 = 0.5312

Probability of having an emergency locator and not being discovered:

20% of 28%. So

P(A cap B) = 0.2*0.28 = 0.056

Probability:

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.056}{0.5312} = 0.105

0.105 = 10.5% probability that it will not be discovered if it has an emergency locator.

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

Probability of not having an emergency locator:

0.5312 of having. So

P(A) = 1 - 0.5312 = 0.4688

Probability of not having an emergency locator and being discovered:

34% of 72%. So

P(A \cap B) = 0.34*0.72 = 0.2448

Probability:

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.2448}{0.4688} = 0.522

0.522 = 52.2% probability that it will be discovered if it does not have an emergency locator.

c) If we consider 10 light aircraft that disappeared in flight with an emergency recorder, what is the probability that 7 of them are discovered?

p is the probability of being discovered with the emergency recorder:

0.5312 probability of having the emergency recorder.

Probability of having the emergency recorder and being located:

66% of 72%. So

P(A \cap B) = 0.66*0.72 = 0.4752

Probability of being discovered, given that it has the emergency recorder:

p = P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.4752}{0.5312} = 0.8946

This question asks for P(X = 7) when n = 10. So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 7) = C_{10,7}.(0.8946)^{7}.(0.1054)^{3} = 0.064

0.064 = 6.4% probability that 7 of them are discovered.

Devon has 14 steel balls of equal weight. If he puts 8 of them in one pan of a balance, and the rest along with a weight of 20 g
astra-53 [7]
Let n be a number of balls: n = 14

In one pan you have 8 balls: 8n
In the other pan you have the rest of balls (14 - 8 = 6) along with a <span>weight of 20 grams = 6n + 20
So the pans are balanced:
8n = 6n + 20

Now, just solve the equation:
8n - 6n = 20
2n = 20
n = 20/2
n = 10
So, you know that a ball weights 10 grams.</span>

Shirts-2-Go sells t-shirts for a base price of $12 per shirt plus a fixed fee of $3 shipping and handling for the whole order. S
Andrew [12]

Answer:

5\ shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the number of shirts ordered

y-----> the total cost of the order

we know that

The linear equations that represent each situation are

<u>Shirts-2-Go</u>

y=12x+3 ------> equation A

<u> Shirts PLUS</u>

y=8x+23 ------> equation B

To know how many shirts to purchase so that the total cost is the same in both companies, equate equation A and equation B

12x+3=8x+23

12x-8x=23-3

4x=20

x=5\ shirts
