Drone INC. owns four 3D printers (D1, D2, D3, D4) that print all their Drone parts. Sometimes errors in printing occur. We know

that D1, D2, D3, D4 print respectively 15, 25, 40 and 20 percent of the total output of parts. Assume that each of D1, D3, have an error rate of 1 percent while D2, D4 have an error rate of 2 percent. Finally suppose that one printed part is selected randomly from the entire batch and it is found to have an error. Determine the probability that this item is produced by each 3 D printer. Compare the prior probability of D2 with its posterior probability. What is higher prior or posterior probability?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

There are 4 3D printers available to print drone parts, then be "Di" the event that the printer i printed the drone part (∀ i= 1,2,3,4), and the probability of a randomly selected par being print by one of them is:

D1 ⇒ P(D1)= 0.15

D2 ⇒ P(D2)= 0.25

D3 ⇒ P(D3)= 0.40

D4 ⇒ P(D4)= 0.20

Additionally, there is a chance that these printers will print defective parts. Be "Ei" represent the error rate of each print (∀ i= 1,2,3,4) then:

P(E1)= 0.01

P(E2)= 0.02

P(E3)= 0.01

P(E4)= 0.02

Ei is then the event that "the piece was printed by Di" and "the piece is defective".

You need to determine the probability of randomly selecting a defective part printed by each one of these printers, i.e. you need to find the probability of the part being printed by the i printer given that is defective, symbolically: P(DiIE)

Where "E" represents the event "the piece is defective" and its probability represents the total error rate of the production line:

P(E)= P(E1)+P(E2)+P(E3)+P(E4)= 0.01+0.02+0.01+0.02= 0.06

This is a conditional probability and you can calculate it as:

P(A/B)= \frac{P(AnB)}{P(B)}

To reach the asked probability, first, you need to calculate the probability of the intersection between the two events, that is, the probability of the piece being printed by the Di printer and being defective Ei.

P(D1∩E)= P(E1)= 0.01

P(D2∩E)= P(E2)= 0.02

P(D3∩E)= P(E3)= 0.01

P(D4∩E)= P(E4)= 0.02

Now you can calculate the probability of the piece bein printed by each printer given that it is defective:

P(D1/E)= \frac{P(E1)}{P(E)} = \frac{0.01}{0.06}= 0.17

P(D2/E)= \frac{P(E2)}{P(E)} = \frac{0.02}{0.06}= 0.33

P(D3/E)= \frac{P(E3)}{P(E)} = \frac{0.01}{0.06}= 0.17

P(D4/E)= \frac{P(E4)}{P(E)} = \frac{0.02}{0.06}= 0.33

P(D2)= 0.25 and P(D2/E)= 0.33 ⇒ The prior probability of D2 is smaller than the posterior probability.

The fact that P(D2) ≠ P(D2/E) means that both events are nor independent and the occurrence of the piece bein defective modifies the probability of it being printed by the second printer (D2)

I hope this helps!

2. John and Jen went to the farmers market to buy fruit. John bought 3 boxes of oranges and 9 boxes of cherries for $78. Jen bou
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Let the cost of orange be X and cost of cherry be y

3x + 9y = 78

8x + 4y = 58

Solving equation using elimination method

multiplying eq 1 with 8 and eq 2 with 3

8(3x + 9y ) = 78(8)

3( 8x + 4y) = 3(58)

24x + 72 y = 624

24x + 12y = 174

subtracting,

60 y = 450

y = 7.5

3x + 9(7.5) = 78

3x + 67.5 = 78

3x = 78 - 67.5

3x = 10.5

x = 3.5

<h2>Box of orange = $3.5 </h2><h2>Box of cherry = $7.5</h2>

aliina [53]

Answer:

C. The loss of economies of scale

By definition represent "the cost advantages that enterprises obtain due to their scale of operation, with cost per unit of output decreasing with increasing scale" and thats the corrct option since if we increase the order we have a lower price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following options we analyze one by one to select the correct one

A. A move to minimum efficient scale

By definition the minimum efficient scale (MES) or efficient scale of production is "the lowest point where the plant can produce such that its long run average costs are minimized" but thats not the case since the department order new planes and the costs are not minimized .

B. The law of diminishing returns

The law of diminishing marginal returns says that "at some point, adding an additional factor of production results in smaller increases in output" but that's not the case since we don't have smaller increases in output.

C. The loss of economies of scale

By definition represent "the cost advantages that enterprises obtain due to their scale of operation, with cost per unit of output decreasing with increasing scale" and thats the corrct option since if we increase the order we have a lower price.

D. An increase in fixed cost

That's False since on this case we don't have a fixed cost, the cost on this case depend on the size of the order.
