Answer:
a) P(B'|A) = 0.042
b) P(B|A') = 0.625
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
80% of the light aircraft that disappear while in flight in a certain country are subsequently discovered
Of the aircraft that are discovered, 63% have an emergency locator,
whereas 89% of the aircraft not discovered do not have such a locator.
From the given information; it is suitable we define the events in order to calculate the probabilities.
So, Let :
A = Locator
B = Discovered
A' = No Locator
B' = No Discovered
So; P(B) = 0.8
P(B') = 1 - P(B)
P(B') = 1- 0.8
P(B') = 0.2
P(A|B) = 0.63
P(A'|B) = 1 - P(A|B)
P(A'|B) = 1- 0.63
P(A'|B) = 0.37
P(A'|B') = 0.89
P(A|B') = 1 - P(A'|B')
P(A|B') = 1 - 0.89
P(A|B') = 0.11
Also;
P(B ∩ A) = P(A|B) P(B)
P(B ∩ A) = 0.63 × 0.8
P(B ∩ A) = 0.504
P(B ∩ A') = P(A'|B) P(B)
P(B ∩ A') = 0.37 × 0.8
P(B ∩ A') = 0.296
P(B' ∩ A) = P(A|B') P(B')
P(B' ∩ A) = 0.11 × 0.2
P(B' ∩ A) = 0.022
P(B' ∩ A') = P(A'|B') P(B')
P(B' ∩ A') = 0.89 × 0.2
P(B' ∩ A') = 0.178
Similarly:
P(A) = P(B ∩ A ) + P(B' ∩ A)
P(A) = 0.504 + 0.022
P(A) = 0.526
P(A') = 1 - P(A)
P(A') = 1 - 0.526
P(A') = 0.474
The probability that it will not be discovered given that it has an emergency locator is,
P(B'|A) = P(B' ∩ A)/P(A)
P(B'|A) = 0.022/0.526
P(B'|A) = 0.042
(b) If it does not have an emergency locator, what is the probability that it will be discovered?
The probability that it will be discovered given that it does not have an emergency locator is:
P(B|A') = P(B ∩ A')/P(A')
P(B|A') = 0.296/0.474
P(B|A') = 0.625
9 58/100 in mixed number form
Answer:
10.6 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
X × 0.25 = 0.265
x= 2.65/0.25= 10.6 oz
The top part equals 1 because anything to the power of zero equals one. then for the second one bring every variable with a negative exponent to the top and leave the 2 at the bottom
