Bowl B1 contains one white and two red chips; bowl B2 contains two white and two red chips; bowl B3 contains one white and four red chips. The probabilities of selecting bowl B1, B2, or B3 are 0.3, 0.2, and 0.5, respectively. A bowl is selected using these probabilities and a chip is then drawn at random. Find:

a. P(W), the probability of drawing a white chip.
b. P(B1 Given W), the conditional probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.3 = 30% probability of drawing a white chip.

b) 0.3333 = 33.33% probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

a. P(W), the probability of drawing a white chip.

1/3(one white out of 3) of 0.3(from B1).

1/2(two white out of 4) of 0.2(from B2).

1/5(one white out of 5) of 0.5(from B3). So

[tex]P(W) = 0.3333*0.3 + 0.5*0.2 + 0.2*0.5 = 0.3[/tex]

0.3 = 30% probability of drawing a white chip.

b. P(B1 Given W), the conditional probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

The probability of drawing a white chip from B1 is 1/3 out of 0.3, so:

[tex]P(B1 \cap W) = 0.3\frac{1}{3} = 0.1[/tex]

Then the conditional probability is:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1}{0.3} = 0.3333[/tex]

0.3333 = 33.33% probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

You will purchase some cds and dvds. If you purchase 13 cds and 5 dvds, it will cost you $96.70; if you purchase 5 cds and 12 dvds, it will cost you $134.50. Write and solve a system of equations to solve.

Answers

Question

You will purchase some cds and dvds. If you purchase 13 cds and 5 dvds, it will cost you $96.70; if you purchase 5 cds and 12 dvds, it will cost you $134.50. Write and solve a system of equations to solve for the cost of each cd and the cost of each dvd.

Answer:

Cost of cd = $3.72

Cost of dvd = $9.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a cd be c

Let the cost of a dvd be d

From the second statement:

If you purchase 13 cds and 5 dvds, it will cost you $96.70

This means that

13c + 5d = 96.70            ----------------(i)

Also, from the third statement:

if you purchase 5 cds and 12 dvds, it will cost you $134.50

This means that;

5c + 12d = 134.50            ---------------------(ii)

The equations to solve are equations (i) and (ii)

13c + 5d = 96.70

5c + 12d = 134.50

Multiply the first equation by 5 and the second equation by 13. i.e

5 x (13c + 5d = 96.70)

13 x (5c + 12d = 134.50)

This will give

65c + 25d = 483.5

65c + 156d = 1748.5

Find the difference of the two equations

    65c + 25d = 483.5

-

    65c + 156d = 1748.5

    0   -  131d   = - 1265

This gives;

-131d = -1265

Divide both sides by -131

[tex]\frac{-131d}{-131} = \frac{-1265}{-131}[/tex]

d = 9.66

This means that the cost of a dvd which is d = $9.66

Now substitute the value of d = 9.66 into equation (i) as follows;

13c + 5(9.66) = 96.70  

Expand the above and solve for c

13c + 48.3 = 96.70

13c = 48.4

c = [tex]\frac{48.4}{13}[/tex]

c = 3.72

This means that the cost of a cd which is c = $3.72

There are two machines available for cutting corks intended for use in wine bottles. The first produces corks with diameters that are normally distributed with mean 3 cm and standard deviation 0.08 cm. The second machine produces corks with diameters that have a normal distribution with mean 3.04 cm and standard deviation 0.03 cm. Acceptable corks have diameters between 2.9 cm and 3.1 cm.
What is the probability that the first machine produces an acceptable cork? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
What is the probability that the second machine produces an acceptable cork? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
Please explain the math behind your answer so I am able to understand!(:

Answers

Answer:

0.7888 = 78.88% probability that the first machine produces an acceptable cork.

0.9772 = 97.72% probability that the second machine produces an acceptable cork.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

First machine:

Mean 3 cm and standard deviation 0.08 cm, which means that [tex]\mu = 3, \sigma = 0.08[/tex]

What is the probability that the first machine produces an acceptable cork?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 3.1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 2.9. So

X = 3.1

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{3.1 - 3}{0.08}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.25[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8944

X = 2.9

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{2.9 - 3}{0.08}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.25[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1056

0.8944 - 0.1056 = 0.7888

0.7888 = 78.88% probability that the first machine produces an acceptable cork.

What is the probability that the second machine produces an acceptable cork?

For the second machine, [tex]\mu = 3.04, \sigma = 0.03[/tex]. Now to find the probability, same procedure.

X = 3.1

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{3.1 - 3.04}{0.03}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9772

X = 2.9

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{2.9 - 3.04}{0.03}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -4.67[/tex]

[tex]Z = -4.67[/tex] has a p-value of 0

0.9772 - 0 = 0.9772

0.9772 = 97.72% probability that the second machine produces an acceptable cork.

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

m<PQR = (2x + 6)°

m<RPQ = (x - 7)°

m<QRS = (5x - 17)°

<PQR and <RPQ are interior angles opposite to the exterior angle <RPQ.

Therefore,

m<PQR + m<RPQ = m<QRS (Exterior Angle Theorem of a Triangle)

Substitute in the values

2x + 6 + x - 7 = 5x - 17

Add like terms

3x - 1 = 5x - 17

Collect like terms

3x - 5x = 1 - 17

What is the solution to the following system of equations?

O It has infinitely many solutions.
It has no solution.
It has one solution (2, -3).
It has one solution (4,0).

Answers

Answer:

(0, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following systems of linear equations;

3x - 2y = 12 ...... equation 1

16x - 4y = 24 ........ equation 2

We would solve for the solution using the elimination method;

Multiplying eqn 1 by 2, we have;

2 * (3x - 2y = 12)

6x - 4y = 24

16x - 4y = 24

Subtracting the two equations, we have;

(6x - 16x) + (-4y -[-4y]) = (24 - 24)

-10x - 0 = 0

-10x = 0

x = -0/10 = 0

Next, we would find the value of y;

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2y = 12

0 - 2y = 12

-2y = 12

y = -12/2

y = -6

Check:

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2(-6) = 12

0 - (-12) = 12

12 = 12

Answers

£3400 / 800 bags of ice
= £4.25 per bag

80 X £4.25 = £340

The amount of money the store makes selling ice by the same ratio will be $340.

What are the ratio and proportion?

The ratio is the division of the two numbers.

For example, a/b, where a will be the numerator and b will be the denominator.

Proportion is the relation of a variable with another. It could be direct or inverse.

As per the given,

The store sells 800 bags of ice, making $3,400.

Ratio = 3400/800

With the same ratio,

The store sells x amount of bags of ice,

x/80 = 3400/800

x = $340

Hence "The store will make $340 from selling ice using the same ratio".

Answers

Answer:

Volume of cone = 686π/3 or 718.67 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Radius, r = 7 in

Height, h = 14 inches

From the diagram, we can see that the object is a cone

To find the volume of a cone;

Mathematically, the volume of a cone is given by the formula;

[tex] V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h[/tex]

Where;

V is the volume of the cone.

r is the radius of the base of the cone.

h is the height of the cone.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] Volume = \frac{1}{3} * \frac {22}{7} *7^{2}*14 [/tex]

[tex] Volume = \frac{1}{3} * 22 * 7 * 14 [/tex]

[tex] Volume = \frac{1}{3} * 2156 [/tex]

[tex] Volume = 718.67 [/tex]

Volume of cone = 718.67 in³ or 686π/3 in³
