In a widget factory, machines A, B, and C manufacture, respectively, 20, 30, and 50 percent of the total. Of their output 6, 3, and 2 percent are defective widgets. A widget is drawn at random from the produce and is found defective. What are the probabilities that it was manufactured by machines A, B, and C?

38.71% probability it was manufactured by machine A.

29.03% probability it was manufactured by machine B.

32.26% probability it was manufactured by machine C.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 20% probability that the chip was fabricated by machine A.

A 30% probability that the chip was fabricated by machine B.

A 50% probability that the chip was fabricated by machine C.

A 6% probability that a chip fabricated by machine A was defective.

A 3% probability that a chip fabricated by machine B was defective.

A 2% probability that a chip fabricated by machine C was defective.

The question can be formulated as:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

What are the probabilities that it was manufactured by machines A, B, and C?

Machine A

What is the probability that the widget was manufactures by machine A, given that it is defective?

P(B) is the probability that it was manufactures by machine A. So

P(A/B) is the probability that a widget is defective, given that it is manufactured by machine A. So

P(A) is the probability that a widget is defective. This is the sum of 6% of 20%, 3% of 30% and 2% of 50%. So

So

38.71% probability it was manufactured by machine A.

Machine B

What is the probability that the widget was manufactures by machine B, given that it is defective?

P(B) is the probability that it was manufactures by machine B. So

P(A/B) is the probability that a widget is defective, given that it is manufactured by machine B. So

So

29.03% probability it was manufactured by machine B.

Machine C

What is the probability that the widget was manufactures by machine C, given that it is defective?

P(B) is the probability that it was manufactures by machine C. So

P(A/B) is the probability that a widget is defective, given that it is manufactured by machine C. So

So

32.26% probability it was manufactured by machine C.

the clues that signal the reader should change tone are the punctuation marks, the grammatical signs. for example, the quotation marks at the beginning of something someone else said literally or the exclamation marks.

the tone of the first line of dialogue until "gettysburg" is a kind tone, a tone of advise. the narrator is trying to the other person in doing something he or she obviously is finding hard to do by giving a piece of advise and bringing up a memory of a successful similar case.

the clue that the reader understand how to read the word "bang" is the exclamation mark. it gives the word a surprise tone, a strong accent.
