On any given day, the probability that a large local river is polluted by carbon tetrachloride is 0.12. Each day, a test is cond

babymother [125]

Answer:

a) 0.2416

b) 0.4172

c) 0.0253

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the result of the test should be independent of the time , then the that the test number of times that test proves correct is independent of the days the river is correct .

denoting event a A=the test proves correct and B=the river is polluted

a) the test indicates pollution when

- the river is polluted and the test is correct

- the river is not polluted and the test fails

then

P(test indicates pollution)= P(A)*P(B)+ (1-P(A))*(1-P(B)) = 0.12*0.84+0.88*0.16 = 0.2416

b) according to Bayes

P(A∩B)= P(A/B)*P(B) → P(A/B)=P(A∩B)/P(B)

then

P(pollution exists/test indicates pollution)=P(A∩B)/P(B) = 0.84*0.12 / 0.2416 = 0.4172

c) since

P(test indicates no pollution)= P(A)*(1-P(B))+ (1-P(A))*P(B) = 0.84*0.88+ 0.16*0.12 = 0.7584

the rate of false positives is

P(river is polluted/test indicates no pollution) = 0.12*0.16 / 0.7584 = 0.0253

HELP ASAP!!!

Veseljchak [2.6K]

I don't know. This seems tricky. But I do know that the probability would be 1 divided by the probability. So A and D is Incorrect. Theres never really a 50-50 chance with Locker doors so I'm gonna go with C.

I'm not guaranteed this is the answer. But I do Hope it helps. =)

Cone W has a radius of 8 cm and a height of 5 cm. Square pyramid X has the same base area and height as cone W. Paul and Manuel

sergij07 [2.7K]

This question is incomplete because it lacks the appropriate attachment containing the argument of Paul and Manuel

Kindly find attached the appropriate attachment necessary to solve this question.

The attachment was sourced online

Answer:

a) Paul's argument is correct, Manuel used the wrong formula to find the volume of square pyramid X

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we are given two shapes: Cone W and Square Pyramid

Cone W: Radius = 8cm, Height = 5cm

Volume of a Cone = 1/3 πr²h

Where π = 3.14

Volume of Cone X = 1/3 × 3.14 × 8² × 5

= 334.93cm³

For Square pyramid X

Volume = 1/3 × Base Area × Height

Base Area of Cone W = Base Area of square pyramid X = πr²

Where π = 3.14

Base area = 3.14 × 8² = 200.96cm²

Height of Square pyramid X = Height of Cone W = 5cm

Volume of Square pyramid = 1/3 ×200.96cm² × 5cm

= 334.93cm³

Therefore, from my above calculation and compared with the arguments of Paul and Manuel, Option a) "Paul's argument is correct, Manuel used the wrong formula to find the volume of square pyramid X" is the correct option.

The reason why is because the correct formula for the volume of a square pyramid = 1/3 × Base area × Height

This was the formula Paul used.

Manuel on the other hand used the formula: Base Area × Height to find the volume of cone W. This formula is wrong.

Option a, is the correct answer.
