It is reported that 50% of all computer chips produced are defective. Inspec- tion ensures that only 5% of the chips legally mar
12345 [234]

Answer:

probability of defective  = 0.0545

Probability of a chip to be stolen = 0.0917

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

all computer chips produced are defective = 50%

legally marketed are defective = 5 %

stolen = 1%

solution

we get here probability of defective that is

probability of defective = P ( insepected and defective + stolen and defective)  .........................1

put here value

probability of defective = (1 - 0.01) × 0.05 + 0.01*0.5

probability of defective  = 0.0545

and

So, Probability of a chip to be stolen given defective  =P (stolen and defective) ÷ P(defective)           ......................2

put here value

Probability of a chip to be stolen = 0.01 × 0.5 ÷ 0.0545

Probability of a chip to be stolen = 0.0917

Explain the error a student is asked to find when the value of an investment of $5200 is an account that earns 4.2% annual inter
zloy xaker [14]

We are given the following information

Investment = $5200

Annual interest rate = 4.2% = 0.042

Final amount = $16,500

Number of years = 27.7 years

Number of compoudings = quartely = 4

The student uses the following model

V(t)=5200(1.014)^{3t}

The general formula for compound interest is given by

V(t)=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

As you can see, the number of compoundings is incorrect (3 vs 4)

The interest rate is also incorrect.

Let us substitute the given values into the above formula

\begin{gathered} V(t)=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt} \\ V(t)=5200(1+\frac{0.042}{4})^{4\cdot27.7} \\ V(t)=5200(1+0.0105)^{110.8} \\ V(t)=5200(1.0105)^{110.8} \\ V(t)=\$16543.5^{} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the final amount is approximately $16,543.5
