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

Employees at a clothing store recieve 20% discounts on what they purchase at that store. How much will an employer save on a $45
mamaluj [8]
Easiest way to work it out is to divide by ten, that gives 10% of your original number. Multiply that by two to get 20% and minus that from the original number to get the discount.
450/10 = 45 which is 10% of 450.
20% of 450= 10% x 2 or 45 x 2
therefor 20% of 450 is 90.
450-90 = the discount the shoppers recieve.

Well to find the range, you need to take the highest number and subtract the lowest from it:

3 - -97

3 + 97

100

Range is always positive

Luke is drawing a map of his block. The actual block is 1800 feet long and 1260 feet wide. Luke needs his drawing to fit on his
Georgia [21]
The actual block is 1800 feet long and 1260 feet wide. We know that 1 foot is equivalent to 12 inches.

Luke is now using the Feet scale measurement.

Solving for the area in square inches is shown below:
Area = L * W
Area = (1800 feet *12 inches/1 foot) * (1260 feet *12 inches/1 foot)
Area = 326.592 x10^6 inches²

1 cup will get you 12 muffins. Since you have 3/4 cups left over, you have to find 3/4 of 12. 1/4 is equal to 3. 3x3 equals 9. 12+9 equals 21.
