A machine produces small cans that are used for baked beans. The probabil- ity that the can is in perfect shape is 0.9. The prob

ability of the can having an unnoticeable dent is 0.02. The probability that the can is obviously dented is 0.08. Produced cans get passed through an automatic inspection machine, which is able to detect obviously dented cans and discard them. What is the probability that a can that gets shipped for use will be of perfect shape?

Answer:

0.9783 = 97.83% probability that a can that gets shipped for use will be of perfect shape

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Shipped for use

Event B: Perfect shape

Probability of being shipped for use:

Perfect shape(0.9 probability) or unnoticeable dent(0.02 probability). So

P(A) = 0.9 + 0.02 = 0.92

Being shipped for use and being in perfect shape.

0.9 probability, so P(A \cap B) = 0.9

What is the probability that a can that gets shipped for use will be of perfect shape?

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.9}{0.92} = 0.9783

0.9783 = 97.83% probability that a can that gets shipped for use will be of perfect shape

The central angle in the circle is ∠DAC,major arc is BED, minor arc is ADC and BC=(5π*BD)/18.

Given that BD is diameter of the circle and angle BAC is 100°.

We are required to find the central angle, major arc, minor arc, m BEC, BC.

Angle is basically finding out the intensity of inclination of something on the surface.

In the circle central angles are many like BAC and CAD. We can write CAD as DAC also.

Major arc of a circle is that arc whose length is larger than all other arcs in the circle.

In our circle the major arc is arc BED.

Minor arc of a circle is that arc whose length is smaller.

In our circle the minor arc is arc ADC.

We know that arc's length is 2πr(Θ/360)

In this way BC=2π*(BD/2)*100/360

=(5π*BD)/18

We cannot find angle BEC.

Hence the central angle in the circle is ∠DAC,major arc is BED, minor arc is ADC and BC=(5π*BA)/18.

Help! im awful at these problems!!<br> solve the formula: t=v+k/g for g.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

g = \frac{k}{t-v}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

t = v + \frac{k}{g}

Multiply through by g to clear the fraction

tg = vg + k ( subtract vg from both sides )

tg - vg = k ← factor out g from each term on the left side

g(t - v) = k ← divide both sides by (t - v)

g = \frac{k}{t-v}

f a rectangle is not a square, what is the greatest number of lines of symmetry that can be drawn?A. 1B. 0C. 2D. 3 or more
zhenek [66]

If the rectangle is not a square, then the sides must not be equal.

Thus, the rectangle can be cut horizontally, vertically, and diagonally. Therefore, it must be option D, which is "3 or more".
