Q4: In a factory which manufactures bolts, machines A, B and C manufacture 30%,50% and 20% of the bolts respectively. Of their output 3%,4% and 1% respectively are defective bolts. A bolt is drawn at random from the product and is found to be defective. Find the probability that this is not manufactured by machine B.

A manufacturing company produces two types of smartphones, A and B. 30% of the smartphones produced are type A, while 70% are type B. The defect rate for type A smartphones is 2%, while the defect rate for type B smartphones is 4%. If a customer receives a defective smartphone, what is the probability that it is of type A?

The proprietor of Midland Construction Company has to decide between two projects. He estimates that the first project will yield a profit of $180,000 with a probability of 0.7 or a profit of $130,000 with a probability of 0.3; the second project will yield a profit of $220,000 with a probability of 0.7 or a profit of $80,000 with a probability of 0.3.Find the expected profit for each project. first project $ second project $
Based on a survey, assume that 33% of consumers are comfortable having drones deliver their purchases. Suppose we want to find the probability that when six consumers are randomly selected, exactly three of them are comfortable with the drones. What is wrong with using the multiplication rule to find the probability of getting three consumers comfortable with drones followed by three consumers not comfortable, as in this calculation: (0.33)(0.33)(0.33)(0.67)(0.67)(0.67) = 0.0108? Choose the correct answer below. A. The event that a consumer is comfortable with drones is not mutually exclusive with the event that a consumer is not comfortable with drones. B. The probability of the second consumer being comfortable with drones cannot be treated as being independent of the probability of the first consumer being comfortable with drones. O C. There are other arrangements consisting of three consumers who are comfortable and three who are not. The probabilities corresponding to those other…

Brian, a landscape architect, submitted a bid on each of three home landscaping projects. He estimates that the probabilities of winning the bid on Project A, Project B, and Project C are 0.7, 0.5, and 0.2, respectively. Assume that the probability of winning a bid on one of the three projects is independent of winning or losing the bids on the other two projects. Find the probability that Brian will experience the following. (a) Win all three of the bids (b) Win exactly two of the bids (c) Win exactly one bid
Two machines turn out all the paper bags produced in the plant. Machine A produces 38% of the bags and machine B produces 62% of the bags. Machine A produces defective bags 1.9% of the time and machine B produces defective bags 3.8% of the time. Given a defective bag, what is the probability that it came from machine B?
Both flu and covid produce fevers. You know from past research that 10% of the population gets flu each year, but it is possible to get both covid and flu. Assume that the probability of getting flu and covid are independent. If this year the percentage of people reporting fever is 20%, what percentage of the population has covid? Studies show that due to similar transmission of flu and covid, someone who has covid has a 20% chance of also getting flu. What then is the probability of someone who has flu also having covid? Given the conditional information above, what is a better estimate of the percentage of people who have covid given the 20% fever reporting?
Super D is a major video distributor that purchases blank SD Drives from two sources: Disk Makers, which provides 73% of the SD Drives, and Media Supply, which provides the remaining 27% . Historically,4% of the SD Drives Super D has purchased from Disk Makers have been defective, whereas 8% of the SD Drives purchased from Media Supply have been defective. A randomly selected SD Drive is found to be defective. Use Bayes' Theorem to determine the probability that the SD Drive came from Disk Makers.
Each day, John's mother gives him money before he goes to school: 50% of the time he gets $5, 35% of the time he gets $10 and the rest of the time he gets $20. Determine the expectation and variance for how much money John gets each day. For the next 100 school days, John plans to save all the money his mother gives him. What is the approximate probability he is able to save more than $1000? Assume independence. If he realizes he has to spend an average of $4 a day with a standard deviation of $0.75, what is the approximate probability that he saves less than $400? Assume independence.
