Components of a certain type are shipped to a supplier in batches of ten. Suppose that 51% of all such batches contain no defective components, 31% contain one defective component, and 18%contain two defective components. Two components from a batch are randomly selected and tested. What are the probabilities associated with 0, 1, and 2 defective components being in the batch under each of the following conditions? (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) Neither tested component is defective. no defective components one defective component two defective components (b) One of the two tested components is defective. [Hint: Draw a tree diagram with three first-generation branches for the three different types of batches.] no defective components one defective component two defective components

Q. 1 It is estimated that 80% of emails are spam emails. Some software has been applied to filter these spam emails before they reach our inbox. A certain brand of software claims that it can detect 99% of spam emails, and the probability for a false positive (a non-spam email detected as spam) is 5%. Now if an email is detected as spam, then what is the probability that it is in fact a non-spam email? event A: email is spam; event B: email is detected as spam. Assume that
A student takes a multiple-choice quiz with 5 questions, each with four possible answers and only oneof them is correct. A passing grade is 60% or better (i.e., answering at least 3 of 5 questions correctly).Suppose that the student was unable to find time to study for the exam and just guesses at eachquestion. Find the probabilities for the two events below.i. the student gets exactly 3 questions correct.ii. the student passes the exam
Consider three classes (I, II and III) consisting of 30, 25, and 45 students. Suppose a student is selected from class I, then he has 10% chance to make an A. Assume that these probabilities for the class II and III are 15% and 20% respectively. If a student is selected randomly and has an A, what is the probability that he is from class III. Enter your answer to the nearest FOUR decimal places. 0.5715
