WILL MARK BRAINLIEST! The board of directors of a company knows that the probability that carbon emissions from the company’s fa
ctory exceed the permissible level is 35%. They hire a consultant who uses a carbon footprint calculator to test the emissions level. The accuracy of the test is 85%. The probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is: (I have to type in answer)
The probability that carbon emissions from the company’s factory exceed the permissible level is 35%.
That means the probability that the carbon emissions at within permissible level are 65%
The test, which has an accuracy rate of 85%, which means 85% of positive reading has a positive result. The positive reading indicates that the factory's carbon emissions are within the permissible level.
The probablility of the permissible emissions is 65%. The accuracy of the test shows us that it has a 15% chance of giving the wrong result(which is what you need in this case). You then multiply 65% and 15% and you should get 0.0975. Hope this helps :)
U have a right triangle...so one angle is 90%......and the second angle is 35%...keep in mind, the angles of a triangle = 180% so the measure of the third angle is : 180 - 90 - 35 = 55%
