Use a conversion factor and turn pounds to ounces. 1 pound = 16 ounces so
Answer:
We use Baye's theorem: P(A)P(B|A) = P(B)P(A|B)
with (A) being defective and
(B) marked as defective
we have to find P(B) = P(A).P(B|A) + P(¬A)P(B|¬A). .......eq(2)
Since P(A) = 0.1 and P(B|A)=0.9,
P(¬A) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9
and
P(B|A¬) = 1 - P(¬B|¬A) = 1 - 0.85 = 0.15
put these values in eq(2)
P(B) = (0.1 × 0.9) + (0.9 × 0.15)
= 0.225 put this in eq(1) and solve for P(B)
P(B) = 0.4
Answer:
f(1/4) = 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x is a function. The name of the function is simply the letter f. It tells you a rule. f(x) is the same as y.
It is the same as having
y = 4x^2 - 2/3 x
For each value of x you are given, you can calculate a corresponding value of y. Instead of calling y, y, we call y "f(x)" which is a way of showing that this relation is a function.
If you were given
y = 4x^2 - 2/3 x and were asked to find the value of y when x = 1/4, what would you do?
You would substitute 1/4 for x in the expression 4x^2 - 2/3 x, and you'd find the value of y.
Being asked to find f(1/4) for function f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x means exactly the same. It means what is the value of the function when x = 1/4? What is the y value corresponding to an x value of 1/4?
Let's calculate it:
f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x
To show we are evaluating the function at an x value of 1/4, we use the notation f(1/4). f(1/4) means find the value of y for function f when x = 1/4. We replace x with 1/4 and do the math.
f(1/4) = 4(1/4)^2 - (2/3)(1/4)
f(1/4) = 4(1/16) - 2/12
f(1/4) = 4/16 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 1/4 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 3/12 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 1/12
