Answer:
a) There is a 66.7% chance that you were given box 1
b) There is a 80% chance that you were given box 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, we need to note that there is a 1/10 chance of getting a defective bulb with box 1 and a 1/20 chance in box 2.
a) To find the answer to this, find the probability of getting a defective bulb for each box. Since there is only one bulb pulled in this example, we just use the base numbers given.
Box 1 = 1/10
Box 2 = 1/2
From this we can see that Box 1 is twice as likely that you get a defective bulb. As a result, the percentage chance would be 2/3 or 66.7%
b) For this answer, we need to square each of the probabilities in order to get the probability of getting a defective one twice.
Box 1 = 1/10^2 = 1/100
Box 2 = 1/20^2 = 1/400
As a result, Box 1 is four times more likely. This means that it would be a 4/5 chance and have a probability of 80%
amount after 2 years = 6000(1 + (0.04/12))^24 = 6498.86
I’m not sure abt 21 but 22 is the second one and the 4th one. So 2,4.

sadly i haven’t learned this so i can’t help you with the answers themselves but a graphing utility you could use is a graphing calculator or a graphing calculator online i know one called desmos.com just not sure if it has the intersect feature so i recommend graphing calculator
