cell phone is launched, the company conducts market research and receives a report predicting favorable or unfavorable sales. In the past, 70% of successful cell phones and 20% of unsuccessful cell phones received favorable reports.
What is the probability that the new cell phone will receive a favorable report, given that the cell phone launch is successful?

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

Hence, the probability is:

0.70

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

Let x be the total cell phones.

Let A denote the event of cell phone will receive a favorable report.

B denote the event that the cell phone is launched successfully.

Now we have to find the probability:

P(A|B)

We know that P(A|B) is calculated as:

P(A|B)=\dfrac{P(A\bigcap B)}{P(B)}

Now it is given that:

40% of its cell phones have launched successfully.

i.e. P(B)=0.4x

( Since,

\dfrac{40}{100}\times x=0.4x

Also,

In the past, 70% of successful cell phones and 20% of unsuccessful cell phones received favorable reports.

So, Number of successfully launched+favorable cell phones is successful are:

40% of 70% of the total cell phones.

i.e.

P(A\bigcap B)=\dfrac{70}{100}\times \dfrac{40}{100}\times x

Hence, the probability P(A|B) is:

\dfrac{\dfrac{40}{100}\times \dfrac{70}{100}\times x}{\dfrac{40}{100}\times x}\\\\\\\\=\dfrac{70}{100}=0.70[/tex]

Hence, the probability is:

0.70

You purchase 5 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of oranges for $9.Your friend purchases 5 pounds of apples and 6 pounds of oranges
babymother [125]

Answer:

x = 1 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let apples are represented by x

and let oranges are represented by y

You purchase 5 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of oranges for $9. This line in equation format can be written as:

5x + 2y = 9

Your friend purchases 5 pounds of apples and 6 pounds of oranges for $17.

This line in equation format can be written as:

5x + 6y = 17

Now we have two equations:

5x + 2y = 9 -> eq (i)

5x + 6y = 17 -> eq(ii)

We can solve these equations to find the value of x and y.

Subtracting eq(i) from eq(ii)

5x + 6y = 17

5x + 2y = 9

-     -         -

_________

0+4y= 8

=> 4y = 8

y= 8/4

y = 2

Now, putting value of y in eq (i)

5x + 2y = 9

5x +2(2) = 9

5x +4 = 9

5x = 9-4

5x = 5

x = 1

so, x = 1 and y = 2
