Confidence of feedback information for improving quality. In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, a key to improved quality is having confidence in the feedback generated by production equipment. A study of the confidence level of feedback information was published in Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence(Vol. 26, 2013). At any point in time during the production process, a report can be generated. The report is classified as either 鈥淥K鈥 or 鈥渘ot OK.鈥 Let Arepresent the event that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in any time period (t).Let Brepresent the event that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in the next time period. Consider the following probabilities:

P(A)=0.8,PBA=0.9, andPBAC=0.5.

a. Express the event B|Ain the words of the problem.

b. Express the event B|ACin the words of the problem.

c. FindP(AC).

d. FindP(AB).

e. FindP(ACB).

f. Use the probabilities, parts d and e, to find P(B).

g. Use Bayes鈥 Rule to find P(A|B), i.e., the probability that an 鈥淥K鈥 report was generated in one time period(t), given that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in the next time period(t+1).

Short Answer

The results are as follows:

  1. The event B|A means that OK report id generated in time periodt+1granted that an OK report is generated time period (t).
  2. The event B|AC means that OK report id generated in time periodt+1granted that not OK report is generated time period (t).
  3. The value of compliment is 0.2.
  4. The value ofP(AB) is 0.72.
  5. The value ofP(ACB) is 0.1.
  6. The value of (B) is 0.82.
  7. The value of P|B is 0.82.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

P(A)=0.8PBA=0.9PBAC=0.5

Let A represent the event that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in any time period (t).Let B represent the event that an 鈥淥K鈥 report is generated in the next time period .

02

Express the event B|A in the words of the problem.

A=[in the time period (t) an OK report id generated]

B=[ in the time periodt+1 an OK report id generated]

So,If an OK report is generated during time period t+1, then the event B|A indicates that it was done so (t).

03

Express the event B|AC in the words of the problem

Thereafter, unless a not-OK report is made during the time period t+1, the event B| denotes that an OK report was generated during that time period (t).

04

Find P(AC)

Apply the complementary rule

P(AC)=1-P(A)=1-0.8=0.2

Accordingly, the value of a compliment is 0.2

05

Evaluate P(A∩B)

P(AB)=PBAP(A)=(0.9)(0.8)=0.72

Henceforth, the value ofP(AB) is 0.72.

06

Determine P(AC∩B)

P(ACB)=PBACP(Ac)=(0.5)(0.2)=0.1

So, the value ofP(ACB) is 0.1.

07

Find P(B)

P(B)=P(AB)+P(ACB)=0.72+0.1=0.82

Hence, the value of (B) is 0.82.

08

Find P(A|B)

PA|B=P(AB)P(A)=P(A).P(B)P(A)=0.82

Therefore, the value of P|B is 0.82.

Advertising proposals. The manager of an advertising department has asked her creative team to propose six new ideas for an advertising campaign for a major client. She will choose three of the six proposals to present to the client. The proposals were named A, B, C, D, E, and F, respectively.

a. In how many ways can the manager select the three proposals? List the possibilities.

b. It is unlikely that the manager will randomly select three of the six proposals, but if she does, what is the probability that she will select proposals A, D, and E?

Two fair dice are tossed, and the following events are defined:

A: {Sum of the numbers showing is odd.}

B: {Sum of the numbers showing is 9, 11, or 12.}

Are events A and B independent? Why?

Characteristics of a new product. The long-run success of a business depends on its ability to market products with superior characteristics that maximize consumer satisfaction and that give the firm a competitive advantage (Kotler & Keller, Marketing Management, 2015). Ten new products have been developed by a food-products firm. Market research has indicated that the 10 products have the characteristics described by the following Venn diagram:

  1. Write the event that a product possesses all the desired characteristics as an intersection of the events defined in the Venn diagram. Which products are contained in this intersection?
  2. If one of the 10 products were selected at random to be marketed, what is the probability that it would possess all the desired characteristics?
  3. Write the event that the randomly selected product would give the firm a competitive advantage or would satisfy consumers as a union of the events defined in the Venn diagram. Find the probability of this union.
  4. Write the event that the randomly selected product would possess superior product characteristics and satisfy consumers. Find the probability of this intersection.
  5. Two of the 10 products will be selected for an ad campaign. How many different pairs of products are possible?

Colors of M&M's candies. When first produced in 1940, M&M's Plain Chocolate Candies came in only brown color. Today, M&Ms in standard bags come in six colors: brown, yellow, red, blue, orange, and green. According to Mars Corporation, 24% of all M&Ms produced are blue, 20% are orange, 16% are green, 14% are yellow, 13% are brown, and 13% are red. Suppose you purchase a randomly selected bag of M&M's Plain Chocolate Candies and randomly select one of the M&M's from the bag. The color of the selected M&M is of interest.

a. Identify the outcomes (sample points) of this experiment.

b. Assign reasonable probabilities to the outcomes, part a.

c. What is the probability that the selected M&M is brown (the original color)?

d. In 1960, the colors red, green, and yellow were added to brown M&Ms. What is the probability that the selected M&M is either red, green, or yellow?

e. In 1995, based on voting by American consumers, the color blue was added to the M&M mix. What is the probability that the selected M&M is not blue?
