Answer:
The consecutive numbers are 62 and 63
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the larger number be represented by x and the smaller number by y,
Provided they are consecutive numbers;
--- Equation 1
From the question; we have that
--- Equation 2
Required
Find x and y
Multiply both sides of equation 2 by 14
---- Equation 3
Substitute y + 1 for x in equation 2
Open bracket
Collect like terms
So,
Hence, the consecutive numbers are 62 and 63
Answer:
(1) 0.5933
(2) 0.8955
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that all bags entering a research facility are screened.
Let Probability that bags entering the building contains forbidden material,
P(F) = 0.69
Probability that bags entering the building does not contains forbidden material, P(NF) = 1 - 0.69 = 0.31
Let event A = alarm gets triggered
Probability that alarm gets trigger given the bags contain forbidden material, P(A/F) = 0.77
Probability that alarm gets trigger given the bags does not contain forbidden material, P(A/NF) = 0.20
(1) Probability that a bag triggers the alarm, P(A) ;
P(A) = P(F) * P(A/F) + P(NF) * P(A/NF)
= (0.69 * 0.77) + (0.31 * 0.20) = 0.5313 + 0.062
= 0.5933
Therefore, probability that a bag triggers the alarm is 0.5933 .
(2) Probability that a bag that triggers the alarm will actually contain forbidden material is given by P(F/A) ;
Using Bayes' Theorem;
P(F/A) = =
=
= 0.8955
