Three machines turn out all the products in a factory, with the first machine producing 30% of the products, the second machine

20%, and the third machine 50%. The first machine produces defective products 13% of the time, the second machine 9% of the time and the third machine 9% of the time. What is the probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine

Answer:

0.2027 = 20.27% probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine

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: Non-defective product.

Event B: From the second machine.

Probability of a non-defective product:

100-13 = 87% of 30%(first machine)

100-9 = 91% of 20%(second machine)

100-9 = 91% of 50%(third machine).

So

P(A) = 0.87*0.3 + 0.91*0.2 + 0.91*0.5 = 0.898

Non-defective and from the second machine:

91% of 20%. So

P(A \cap B) = 0.91*0.2 = 0.182

What is the probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.182}{0.898} = 0.2027

0.2027 = 20.27% probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine

bixtya [17]

Answer:

The equation can be used to determine the amount of money S(t)  that her savings account has after t years is S(t)=500(1.04)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

A student invests $500 in a savings account

Principal = $500

Rate of interest = 4% = 0.04

We are supposed to find equation can be used to determine the amount of money S(t)  that her savings account has after t years

Formula : A=P(1+r)^t

Where A is the amount after t years =S(t)

t = time

r = rate of interest in decimals =0.04

P = Principal=500

Substitute the value in the formula :

So, S(t)=500(1+0.04)^t

S(t)=500(1.04)^t

Hence The equation can be used to determine the amount of money S(t)  that her savings account has after t years is S(t)=500(1.04)^t
