Applicants for temporary office work at Carter Temporary Help Agency who have successfully completed an administrative assistant

course are then placed in suitable positions by Nancy Dwyer and Darla Newberg. Employers who hire temporary help through the agency return a card indicating satisfaction or dissatisfaction with the work performance of those hired. From past experience it is known that 80% of the employees placed by Nancy are rated as satisfactory, and 65% of those placed by Darla are rated as satisfactory. Darla places 55% of the temporary office help at the agency, and Nancy places the remaining 45%. If a Carter office worker is rated unsatisfactory, what is the probability that he or she was placed by Darla? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Answer:

0.681

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the following events:

S: a Carter office worker is rated satisfactory

U : a Carter office worker is rated unsatisfactory

ND: a Carter office worker is placed by Nancy Dwyer

DN: a Carter office worker is placed by Darla Newberg

We have from the original text that

P(S | ND) = 0.8, this implies that P(U | ND) = 0.2.

P(S | DN) = 0.65, this implies that P(U | DN) = 0.35. Besides

P(DN) =  0.55 and P(ND) = 0.45, then we are looking for

P(DN | U), using the Bayes' formula we have

P(DN | U) = \frac{P(U | DN)P(DN)}{P(U | DN)P(DN) + P(U | ND)P(ND)} = \frac{(0.35)(0.55)}{(0.35)(0.55)+(0.2)(0.45)}=0.681

What is the formula for surface area? Giving brainliest to the correct answer
Kitty [74]

Answer: Surface area is the sum of the areas of all faces (or surfaces) on a 3D shape. A cuboid has 6 rectangular faces. To find the surface area of a cuboid, add the areas of all 6 faces. We can also label the length (l), width (w), and height (h) of the prism and use the formula, SA=2lw+2lh+2hw, to find the surface area

A line has a slope of 11 and passes through the point (2,4). ​ PLSS HELPP I NEED IT
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

y = 11x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation y = mx + b

m (the slope) = 11

x (the x-coordinate) = 2

y (the y-coordinate) = 4

Plug it in for our original equation:

4 = 11*2 + b

4 = 22 + b

4 - 22 = b

b = -18

Therefore, the answer is y = 11x - 18. The tricks to these problems are usually in the same format, when you are given the slope and a point it passes through, just plug in the slope and the x and y, and solve for b. Hope this helps!
