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
Answer:
0.35
Step-by-step explanation:
This probability distribution is shown below:
Pitch 1 2 3 4 5
Frequency 15 20 40 15 10
Probability 0.15 0.2 0.4 0.15 0.1
The probability that the pitcher will throw fewer than 3 pitches to a batter = P(X < 3)
X is the number of pitches thrown. Therefore:
P(X < 3) = P(X = 1) or P(X = 2)
The additive rule pf probability states that if two events X and Y are dependent events, the probability of X or Y occurring is the sum of their individual probability.
P(X < 3) = P(X = 1) or P(X = 2) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.15 + 0.2 = 0.35
The probability that the pitcher will throw fewer than 3 pitches to a batter = 0.35
Answer:
its c
Step-by-step explanation:
5 milligrams are equal to .005 grams.
Given:
Charlie bought a new computer for $450 with his credit card.
He plans to pay the minimum payment of $25 per month.
To find:
The rate of change.
Solution:
Let y be the remaining amount of loan after x months.
Initial amount of loan = $450
Payment of one month = $25
Payment of x months = $25x
Now,
Remining amount = Initial amount of loan - Payment of x months
...(i)
The slope intercept form is
...(ii)
where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.
From (i) and (ii), we get
Therefore, the rate of change is -25 dollars.
