Four percent of the welds on an automobile assembly line are defective. The defective welds are found using an X-ray machine. Th

e machine correctly rejects 92% of the defective welds and correctly accepts 99% of all of the good welds.
Required:
a. Make a table or a tree to represent this situation.
b. What is the probability that the X-ray machine will diagnose a weld as being defective in a randomly chosen automobile?
c. If the X-ray machine detects a defective weld, what is the probability that the weld really is defective?

Answer:

a ) See Annex

b) P₁  =  0,0464       or    P₁  =  4,64 %

c) P₄  = 0,92   or   P₄  = 92 %

Step-by-step explanation:

b) P₁ [ X being defective ]  =  P₂   +   P₃

Where P₂  is the probability of X rays machine detects a weld defective and the weld is really defective

And  P₃  is the probability of X rays machine detects a weld defective and the weld is not defective

Then

P₂  =  0,04 *  0,92  =  0,0368

P₃  =  0,96 * 0,01  = 0,0096

Then  P₁  =  0,0368  +  0,0096

P₁  =  0,0464       or    P₁  =  4,64 %

c) P₄ = 0,04 *0,92

P₄  = 0,92   or   P₄  = 92 %

I believe your answer is:  

(0.286, 5.587)

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

  • I have graphed the two equations in a program. When graphed, the lines intersect at point (0.286, 5.587).
  • See the graph attached.

Make a conjecture about the sum of the first 15 positive even number
erica [24]
I conclude that the sum will be even because any even number can be represented by 2n where n is a whole number
and even numbers are 2 apart, so
the sum of the first 15 are
2n+2(n+1)+2(n+2) etc until we get to 2(n+14)
we can undistribute the 2 from all of them and get
2(n+n+1+n+2...n+14)
and we are sure that whatever is in the parenthasees is a whole number because whole+whole=whole
therefor, the sum is even

if you did want to find the sum then
an=2n
the 15th even number is 30
the first is 2
S15=15(2+30)/2=15(32)/2=15(16)=240
which is even

to figure out how many hours it will take to drive from his home to his's cousin's house,a student divides 289 by 60 and estimat
crimeas [40]
This would be considered a reasonable estimate because if you were to use estimation, you can round 289 to the nearest hundred (300), which is divisible by 60.  When dividing 300 / 60, you will get 5 hours, which is 0.5 greater than 4.5 therefore making it a reasonable estimate.  In addition, when actually dividing 289 / 60, you will get approximately 4.8 hours, which is close to the estimate, 4.5 hours.

16.2=2.7(h+1) solve for h
Rom4ik [11]

Step-by-step explanation:

16.2 = 2.7(h+1)

2.7(h+1) = 16.2

(h+1) = 16.2 ÷ 2.7

h+1 = 6

h = 5
