If an aircraft is present in a certain area, a radar correctly registers its presence with probability 0.99. if it is not presen

t, the radar falsely registers an aircraft presence with probability 0.10. we assume that an aircraft is present with probability 0.05. what is the probability of false alarm (a false indication of aircraft presence), and the probability of missed detection (notng registers, even though an aircraft is present)? what is the probability that an aircraft is present given that the radar registers a presence?

Answer:

A) 0.005

B) 0.001

C)0.0495

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that an aircraft is present and let B be the event the radar registers its presence.. Thus;

P(A) = Probability that an aircraft is present

P(A') = Probability that an aircraft is not present

P(B) = Probability that the radar generates an alarm

P(B') = Probability that the radar doesn't generate an alarm

Thus from what we are given, we have;

P(A) = 0.05

P(A') = 0.95

P(B) = 0.99

P(B') = 0.01

P(B|A') = 0.1

A) Probability of a false alarm will be;

P(A' ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B|A')

P(A' ∩ B) = 0.05 × 0.1 = 0.005

B) probability of missed detection is;

0.1 × (1 - 0.99) = 0.001

C) probability that an aircraft is present given that the radar registers a presence will be;

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B)

P(A ∩ B) = 0.05 × 0.99

P(A ∩ B) = 0.0495

Simplify (2^2•5)^3/2^5•5^8

Kryger [21]

Answer:

$2^{17}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(2^{2 \times 5})^3/(2^5 \times 5^8)$

$(2^{10})^3/(2^{5+8})$

$2^{10 \times 3}/(2^{5+8})$

$2^{30}/(2^{13})$

$2^{30-13}$

$=2^{17}$

Solve the linear differential equation 2xy' + y = 2√x

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

General form of the linear differential equation can be written as:

$\frac{dy}{dx}+P(x)y=Q(x)$

For this case, we can rewrite the equation as:

$\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{1}{2x}y=\frac{\sqrt{x}}{x}$

Here $P(x) =\frac{1}{2x}; Q(x)=\frac{\sqrt{x}}{x}$

To find the solution (y(x)), we can use the integration factor method:

$Fy(x)=\int Q(x)Fdx+C \rightarrow F=e^{\int P(x)dx$

Then $F=e^{\int \frac{1}{2x}dx}=e^{\frac{1}{2}\ln|x|\right}=\sqrt{|x|}$

So, we can find:

$y\sqrt{|x|}=\int \frac{\sqrt{x}\sqrt{|x|}}{x}dx+C$

Suppose that $x\in \double R$ , then $\sqrt{|x|}=\sqrt{x}$ , and we find:

$y\sqrt{x}=x+C \rightarrow y(x)=\sqrt{x}+\frac{C\sqrt{x}}{x}$

To check our solution is right or not, put your y(x) back to the ODE:

$y' = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}-\frac{C}{2\sqrt{x^{3}}}$

$2xy'=\frac{x-C}{\sqrt{x}}$

$2xy'+y=\frac{x-C}{\sqrt{x}}+\sqrt{x}+\frac{C\sqrt{x}}{x}=2\sqrt{x}$

(it means your solution is right)

Find the length of side FD given that

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the length of side FD given that

Since both triangles are similar, then

AB= FD

2x+2 = x+3

Collect like terms

2x-x =3-2

x = 1

Get FD

FD = x+3

FD = 1+3

FD = 4

Hence the measure of FD is 4

The area, A, of a circle is given by A = π r2, where r is the radius of the circle. Round all values to the nearest whole number

Artemon [7]

Answer:

A =363 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A = π r^2

r = 11.3

Rounding to the nearest whole number

r =11

pi = 3.14

Rounding to the nearest whole number

pi = 3

A = 3 * 11^2

A = 3 *121

A =363 cm^2

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

$22961.5 cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$V = \pi r^{2} h$

30/2 = 15 (to find radius, r)

$V = 3.14 * 15^{2} * 325$

$V = 22961.5 cm^{2}$
