Suppose that 11% of a certain batch of calculators have a defective case, and that 13% have defective batteries. Also 3% have both a defective case and defective batteries. A calculator is selected from the batch at random. Find the probability that the calculator has a good case and good batteries.
The probability that the calculator has a good case and good batteries is _______.
Solution
calculator with good case = 1 - defective case = 1 - 0.11 = 0.89
good batteries = 1 - defective batteries = 1 - 0.13 = 0.97
defective case and defective batteries = 0.03
good case and good batteries = 1 - 0.03 = 0.97
The probability that the calculator has a good case and good batteries is 0.97
