In total there are 32 keys.
There 24 silver and copper keys so the probability of one being drawn is 24/32

Now just simplify
24/32 = 12/16 = 6/8 = 3/4

A lie-detector works correctly with 80% probability when the person is lying, and with 90% probability when the person is not. A
muminat

Answer:

the time percentage is 17%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the time percenatge in the case when the detector lie and done with the mistake is as follows:

L denotes the event  in which a person is lying.

NL denotes the event in which a person is not lying.

C denotes the event in which that lie detector works correctly

NC denotes the event in which  lie detector is not working correctly

Now

P(C|L) =0.8

And,

P(NC|L) is

=1 - .8

= 0.2

P(C|NL) =0.9

P(NC|NL) is

= 1 -.9

=.1

P(L) = 0.7

P(NL) is

= 1 - .7

= .3

Now

P(NC) =P(NC|L) × P(L) + P(NC|NL) × P(NL)

=. 2 × .7 + .1 ×.3

=. 14+.03

= 0.17

Hence, the time percentage is 17%

What is 9.5% in a decimal
Delvig [45]
Percentage means 'out of 100 100 '. Convert the decimal number to a fraction by shifting the decimal point in both the numerator and denominator. Since there is 1 1 number to the right of the decimal point, move the decimal point 1 1 place to the right.
