Three machinesE1, E2 and E3 in a certain factory producing electric bulbs, produce 50%, 25% and 25% respectively, of the total daily output of electric bulbs. It is known that 4% of the bulbs produced by each of machines E1 and E2 are defective and that 5% of those produced by machine E3are defective. If one bulb is picked up at random from a day’s production, calculate the probability that it is defective.

An electric component manufactured by 'RASU electronics' is tested for its defectiveness by asophisticated testing device. Let A denote the event the device is defective and B the event thetesting device reveals the component to be defective. Suppose P(A) = a. and P((B)/(A))= P((B')/(A'))= 1- alpha, where 0 lt alpha lt1. If the probability that the component is not defective is lambda. then the value of 4lambda is

A manufacturer has three machine operators A,B and C. The first operator A produces 1% defective items, whereas the other two operators B and C produce 5% and 7% defective items respectively. A is on the job for 50% of the time, B is on the job for 30% of the time and C is on the job for 20% of the time. A defective item is produced, what is the probability that it was produced by A?

A manufacturer has three machine operators A, B and C. The first operator A produces 1% defective items, where as the other two operators B and C produce 5% and 7% defective items respectively. A is on the job for 50% of the tune, B is on the job for 30% of the time and C is on the job for 20% of the time. A defective item is produced, what is the probability that it was produced by A?

An item is manufactured by three machines A, B and C. Out of the total member of items manufactured during a specified period, 50% are manufactured on A, 30% on B and 20% on C. 2% of the items produced on A and 2% of items produced on B are defective and 3% of these produced on C are defective. All the items are stored at one godown. One item is drawn at random and is found to be defective. What is the probability that it was manufactured on machine A?

A factory has two machines A and B. Past record shows that machine A produced 60% of the items of output and machine B produced 40% of the items. Further, 2% of the items produced by machine A and 1% produced by machine B were defective. All the items are put into one stockpile and then one item is chosen at random from this and is found to be defective. What is the probability that it was produced by machine B?

In a factory machine A produces 30% of the total output, machine B produces 25% and the machine C produces the remaining output. If defective items produced by machines A, B and C are 1% , 1.2% 2% respectively. Three machines working together produce 10000 items in a day. An item is drawn at random from a day’s output and found to be defective. Find the probability that it was produced by machine B?
