Answer: (a) 0.006

               (b) 0.027

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : P(AA) = 0.3 and P(AAA) = 0.70

Let event that a bulb is defective be denoted by D and not defective be D';

Conditional probabilities given are :

P(D/AA) = 0.02 and P(D/AAA) = 0.03

Thus P(D'/AA) = 1 - 0.02 = 0.98

and P(D'/AAA) = 1 - 0.03 = 0.97

(a) P(bulb from AA and defective) = P ( AA and D)

                                                       = P(AA) x P(D/AA)

                                                       = 0.3 x 0.02 = 0.006

(b) P(Defective) = P(from AA and defective) + P( from AAA and defective)

                         = P(AA) x P(D/AA) + P(AAA) x P(D/AAA)

                         = 0.3(0.02) + 0.70(0.03)

                         = 0.027

Explanation and answer please :)
Juli2301 [7.4K]

$20,000 is between $15,000 and $49,999, so we'll use the interest rate of 6.5% (see row 3)

r = 6.5% = 6.5/100 = 0.065

We'll use the decimal form of the interest rate as it is most common for financial math problems.

P = 20,000 is the amount deposited

t = 1 year is the amount of time

We will plug those values into the formula

i = P*r*t

to get the following:

i = P*r*t

i = 20000*0.065*1

i = 1300

So Mark earns $1,300 in simple interest each year.

Archy [21]
Volume of Cylinder
= πr²h
= (3.14)(5)²(16)
= 1256 cm³

Volume of Cone
= 1/3πr²h
= 1/3(3.14)(4)²(12)
= 200.96 cm³

Volume of air space
= Volume of Cylinder - Volume of Cone
= 1256 - 200.96
= 1055.04 cm³
≈ 1055 cm³ (nearest whole number)
