WILL MARK BRAINLIEST! The board of directors of a company knows that the probability that carbon emissions from the company’s factory 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)

Answer 1

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 answer is .9132

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps you

Answer 2

Answer:

0.0975

Step-by-step explanation:

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 :)
