Three methods, A, B and C, are available for teaching a certain industrial skill. The failure rate is 15% for A, 5% for B and 10% for C. The method A is used 30%, B is used 40% and C is used 30% of the time. A worker is taught the skill by one of the methods but fails to learn it correctly. a. (10 points) What is the probability that he was taught by method A? b. (5 points) What is the probability of B given A?
Answer:
a) so the correct answer is that the probability that method A has been taught is 0.4737
b) the probability that B receives A is 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
With the previous data we know that 3 methods teach an industrial skill and when putting into practice a worker does not learn, we have the failure rates like this:
method A fails 15%
method B fails: 5%
method C fails: 10%
usage percentages:
A: 30%
B: 40%
C: 30%
a) the probability that method A has been taught is as follows:
P (failure rate) = P (A) * P (failure rate A) + P (B) * P (failure rate B) + P (C) * P (failure rate C)
we replace the data obtaining:
P = 0.3 * 0.15 + 0.4 * 0.05 + 0.3 * 0.1 = 0.095
P ( failure rate A) = P (A) * P (failure rate A) / P (failure rate)
we replace the data obtaining:
0.3 * 0.15 / 0.095 = 0.4737
so the correct answer is that the probability that method A has been taught is 0.4737
b) the probability that B receives A is as follows:
P (B | A) = P (B) = 0.50
The Sears Tower, at 1,451 feet, is one of the tallest structures in the United States. A penny is thrown from the top of the tower. The height, h, of the penny is recorded after each second, t, in the table. Write an equation for the curve of best fit, then find the approximate height of the penny after 7 seconds.
Answer:
The equation for the height of the penny in function of time is:
[tex]h(t)=1451-16t^2[/tex]
After 7 seconds, the penny will be at a height of 667 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The penny will have a free fall.
The initial velocity is zero, and the initial height is h(0)=1,451.
The acceleration will be the gravity, that has a value g=32 ft/s^2.
Then, we can model this starting by the speed:
[tex]dv/dt=-g\\\\v(t)=v_0-gt=-gt[/tex]
Then, the height becomes:
[tex]dh/dt=v(t)=-gt\\\\h(t)=h_0-\dfrac{gt^2}{2}=1451-\dfrac{32}{2}t^2\\\\\\h(t)=1451-16t^2[/tex]
The approximate height of the penny after 7 seconds can be calculated as:
[tex]h(7)=1451-16(7^2)=1451-16*49=1451-784=667[/tex]
After 7 seconds, the penny will be at a height of 667 feet.
State if the two vectors are parallel, orthogonal, or neither.
u=18i+8j
v=9i+4j
Answer:
Parallel, since [tex]\vec u = 2\cdot \vec v[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between both vectors is determined by the use of the dot product, whose expression is:
[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{\vec u \bullet \vec v}{\|\vec u\| \|\vec v\|}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]\cos \theta = 1[/tex] if vectors are parallel to each other and [tex]\cos \theta = 0[/tex] if vectors are orthogonal. Then, norms and dot product are calculated hereafter:
[tex]\|\vec u\| = \sqrt{18^{2}+8^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]\|\vec u\| \approx 19.698[/tex]
[tex]\|\vec v \| = \sqrt{9^{2}+4^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]\|\vec v\| \approx 9.849[/tex]
[tex]\vec u \bullet \vec v = (18)\cdot (9) + (8)\cdot (4)[/tex]
[tex]\vec u \bullet \vec v = 194[/tex]
[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{194}{(19.698)\cdot (9.849)}[/tex]
[tex]\cos \theta = 1[/tex]
The two vectors are parallel to each other, which is also supported by the fact that one vector is multiply of the other one. That is,
[tex]18i + 8j = 2\cdot (9i + 4j)[/tex]
[tex]\vec u = 2\cdot \vec v[/tex]

Tim has to cover 3 tanks completely with paint.
Each tank is in the shape of a cylinder with a top and a bottom.
The tank has a diameter of 1.4 metres and a height of 1.9 m.
A tin of paint covers 5 m
Find the total surface area of the 3 tanks and state how
many tins of paint Tim will need to buy
You must show your working
Total marks 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each tank is cylindrical, we would apply the formula for determining the total surface area of a cylinder which is expressed as
Total surface area = 2πr² + 2πrh
Where
r represents the height of the cylinder.
h represents the height of the cylinder.
π = 3.14
From the information given,
Height = 1.9
Diameter = 1.4
Radius = diameter/2 = 1.4/2 = 0.7
Total surface area = 2 × 3.14 × 0.7² + 2 × 3.14 × 0.7 × 1.9 = 3.0772 + 8.3524 = 11.4296 m²
Total surface area of the 3 cylinders = 11.4296 × 3 = 34.29 m²
Since a tin of paint covers 5 m², the number of tins paints that Tim will need to buy is
34.29/5 = 6.858
Since the tins of paint must be whole numbers, he needs to buy 7 tins of paints.

Suppose the probability of an athlete taking a certain illegal steroid is 10%. A test has been developed to detect this type of steroid and will yield either a positive or negative result. Given that the athlete has taken this steroid, the probability of a positive test result is 0.995. Given that the athlete has not taken this steroid, the probability of a negative test result is 0.992. Given that a positive test result has been observed for an athlete, what is the probability that they have taken this steroid
Answer:
93.25% probability that they have taken this steroid
Step-by-step explanation:
Bayes Theorem:
Two events, A and B.
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.
In this question:
Event A: Positive test
Event B: Taking the steroid.
Suppose the probability of an athlete taking a certain illegal steroid is 10%.
This means that [tex]P(B) = 0.1[/tex]
Given that the athlete has taken this steroid, the probability of a positive test result is 0.995.
This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.995[/tex]
Positive test:
99.5% of 10%(If the athlete has taken).
100-99.2 = 0.8% of 100-10 = 90%(Athlete has not taken)
Then
[tex]P(B) = 0.995*0.1 + 0.008*0.9 = 0.1067[/tex]
Given that a positive test result has been observed for an athlete, what is the probability that they have taken this steroid
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1*0.995}{0.1067} = 0.9325[/tex]
93.25% probability that they have taken this steroid
Shira packs 170 lemon bars in boxes for the bake sale. Each box holds 8 lemon bars. She takes home the lemon bars tha are leg over after she has filled as many boxes as possible. Ahora use partial quotients to find how many boxes of lemon bars she can fill to sell at the bake sale. She finds only two partial quotients when she divides. Use the numbers in the box to answer the questions
1 2 7 8 20 21 23 27 29
Question:
1. How many full boxes of lemon bars can Shira fill?
2. How many delicious lemon bars will she be taking home?
Answer:
1. Number of filled box = 21
2. Number of take home = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Number of lemon bars = 170
Each bar contains 8 lemon bars
Required
(1) & (2)
To calculate the number of boxes Shira can fill, we simply divide the total number of bars by constituents of each bar .
i.e.
Number of filled box = 170/8
Number of filled box = 21.25
But here, we only need the quotient of the division because it represents the filled boxed.
So,
Number of filled box = 21
Calculating the number of take home.
We'll follow the same steps as (1) above but here, we only need the remainder of the division.
When 170 is divided by 8, the remainder is 2.
So, number of boxes she'll take home is 2.
See calculation below
Number of take home = 170 % 8
Number of take home = 2

Trisomy 18 (T18) is a rare genetic disorder that severely disrupts a baby's development prior to birth. Many die before birth and most die before their first birthday. T18 occurs in only 1 in 2500 pregnancies in the U.S. A genetic test on the mother's blood can be done to test for T18 in her baby. The overall probability of a positive test result is 0.010384. The probability of a positive test result for a baby with T18 is 0.97. The probability of a negative test result for a baby without T18 is 0.99. A mother's blood tests positive for T18. What is the probability that her baby has T18
Answer:
3.74% probability that her baby has T18
Step-by-step explanation:
Bayes Theorem:
Two events, A and B.
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.
In this question:
Event A: Positive test.
Event B: The baby having T18.
T18 occurs in only 1 in 2500 pregnancies in the U.S.
This means that [tex]P(B) = \frac{1}{2500} = 0.0004[/tex]
The probability of a positive test result for a baby with T18 is 0.97.
This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.97[/tex]
The overall probability of a positive test result is 0.010384.
This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.010384[/tex]
What is the probability that her baby has T18
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.0004*0.97}{0.010384} = 0.0374[/tex]
3.74% probability that her baby has T18

Two expressions are below.
M = 4(2x + 6)
N = 8x + 10
Part A:
Apply the distributive property to write an expression that is equivalent to expression M.
Part B:
Explain whether or not expressions M and N are equivalent for any value of x.
Label your answers to both parts of the problem in the response box.
Answer:
Part A: 8x + 24
Part B: Expressions M and N are not equivalent for any value of x because if you do 8x + 24 = 8x + 10, the 8x will cancel out from both sides and you are left with 24 = 10, which is not true, and therefore has no solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
For Part A, to apply the Distributive Property, you multiple the 4 with both terms in the parentheses. So, you do 4(2x) + 4(6). This expression is equal to 8x + 24.

what is the value of the rational expression below when x is equal to 4? x+20/x+4
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
All we need to do here is plug in the number 4 for the variable x. Wherever there's an x, kidnap it and replace it with a 4!
[tex]\frac{x + 20}{x + 4}[/tex]
x = 4
[tex]\frac{4 + 20}{4 + 4}[/tex]
Do the addition.
4 + 20 = 24
4 + 4 = 8
[tex]\frac{24}{8}[/tex]
We can simplify this! What is 24 divided by 8?
24/8 = 3
The answer is 3!
