Answer:

The responsess to the given question can be defined as follows:

Step-by-step explanation:

$P(medication\ used) = 0.007 \\\\P( drug \not\ used ) = 1 - 0.007 = 0.993\\\\P(test\ positive | medication \ used) = 0.96 \\\\ P(test \ negative | medication \ used) = 1 - 0.96 = 0.04\\\\$

$P(Point | Non-used\ medication )=0.93\\\\ P(Point |No\ medication ) = 1 - 0.93 = 0.07$

As per the given info we draw the tree diagram which is defined in the attachment file.

$P ( test \ is\ positive ) = P( medication \ used ) \times P( Test \ positive | medication \ used ) + P( medication not \ used ) \times P( Test\ positive | medication \ not \ used )$

$= ( 0.007 \times 0.96 ) + ( 0.993\times 0.07 )\\\\= 0.0762$

$P( medication \ used | test\ positive )= \frac{\textup{P( medication used ) *P( Test positive given medication used )}}{\textup{P( medication used )}}$

$= \frac{( 0.007\times 0.96 )}{0.0762}\\\\= 0.0882$

The probability that a certain machine will produce a defective item is 0.20. if a random sample of 20 items is taken from the o

GenaCL600 [577]

Use binomial distribution, with p=0.20, n=20, x=3
P(X=x)=C(n,x)p^x (1-p)^(n-x)

P(X>=3)
=1-(P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2))
=1-(C(20,0)0.2^0 (0.8)^(20-0)+C(20,1)0.2^1 (0.8)^(20-1)+C(20,2)0.2^2 (0.8)^(20-2))
=1-(0.0115292+0.057646+0.136909)
=1-0.206085
=0.793915
