88% of the light aircraft that disappear while in flight in a certain country are subsequently discovered. Of the aircraft that

are discovered, 72% have an emergency locator, whereas 86% of the aircraft not discovered do not have such a locator. Suppose a light aircraft has disappeared.
A) If it has an emergency locator, what is the probability that it will not be discovered?B) If it does not have an emergency locator, what is the probability that it will be discovered?C) If we consider 10 light aircraft that disappeared in flight with an emergency recorder, what isthe probability that 7 of them are discovered?

Answer:

a) P(D'/L)=0.03

b) P(D/L')=0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Probability of discovered P(D)=0.88

Probability of aircraft with locator P(L/D)=0.72

Probability of lost aircraft without locator P(L'/D')=0.86

Generally the probability that aircraft are not discovered is mathematically given as

P(D')=1-0.88

P(D')=0.12

Generally the probability that aircraft with locator are discovered is mathematically given as

P(L'/D)=1-0.72

P(L'/D)=0.28

Generally the  Probability of lost aircraft without locator mathematically given as

P(L/D')=1-0.86

P(L/D')=0.14

Generally the  Probability of having a locator mathematically given as

P(L)=P(L/D)*P(D)+P(L/D')*P(D')

P(L)=0.72*0.88+0.14 *0.12

P(L)=0.6504

a)Generally the  Probability of getting lost even with locator mathematically given as

P(D'/L)=\frac{P(L/D')(P(D')}{P(L)}

P(D'/L)=\frac{0.14*0.12}{0.6504}

P(D'/L)=0.0258302583

P(D'/L)=0.03

b)Generally the  Probability of getting lost even with locator mathematically given as

P(D/L')=\frac{P(L'/D)(P(D)}{P(L')}

P(D/L')=\frac{0.28*0.88}{1-0.6504}

P(D/L')=0.704805492

P(D/L')=0.7

Allison has 3 containers with 25 crayons in each. She also has 4 boxes of markers with 12 markers in each box. She gives 10 cray
worty [1.4K]
I hope you'll save some homework for yourself, but I'll help you with this one, too. If one container of crayons has 25 crayons, multiply that by three to get 75 crayons. The marker information is useless in this equation, it's only to confuse you.  Anyways, because that Allison gives away 10 crayons, we need to take 10 crayons away from 75 to get 65. So, your total answer is 65 crayons. I hope this helped! :)

What number must you add to complete the square x2+6x=15
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

To complete the square you must split the b term in half, then square that answer.

6 is the b term, half of 6 is 3, 3 squared is 9. You will add 9 to both sides of x^2 + 6x = 15

x^2 + 6x + 9 =  24
