Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 14PP
An R-L series circuit contains two resistors and two inductors. The resistors dissipate powers of 96 watts and 125 watts. The inductors have reactive powers of 100 VARs and 78 VARs. What is the power factor?

A professor teaches two sections of a course:
• 70% of students are in Section 1, and 30% are in Section 2.
•
In Section 1, 90% of students pass the final exam.
•
In Section 2, 80% of students pass the final exam.
A student is randomly selected.
a) Draw a tree diagram to represent this situation.
b) What is the probability that the selected student passes the exam?
c) Given that a student failed, what is the probability they were from Section 1?
.. A factory has two machines, A and B. Machine A produces 60% of the parts, while Machine B
produces 40%. Machine A produces defective parts 5% of the time, while Machine B produces defective
parts 10% of the time. A randomly selected part from production is inspected.
a) Draw a tree diagram to represent the probability of getting a defective part.
b) What is the probability that a randomly selected part is defective?
c) If a part is found to be defective, what is the probability it came from Machine A?
A Factory produces light bulbs from two different machines: Machine A and Machine B. The
probability that a randomly selected light bulbs is from Machine A is 60%, and the probability that a light
bulb is defective is 5%. Suppose that probability that a light bulb is defective given that it was made by
Machine A is 0.05. Similarly, the probability that a light bulb is defective given that it was made by
Machine B is 0.03. Are the events “the light bulb is from Machine A” and “the light bulb is defective”
independent?
