Use Bayes' rule to find the indicated probability.Quality Motors has three plants. Plant 1 produces 35% of the car output, plant 2 produces 20% and plant 3 produces the remaining 45%. One percent of the output of plant 1 is defective, 1.8% of the output of plant 2 is defective and 2% of the output of plant 3 is defective. The annual total production of Quality Motors is 1,000,000 cars. A car chosen at random from the annual output and is found defection. What is the probability that it came from plant 2?
A. 0.35
B. 0.559
C. 0.224
D. 0.217

Solve the problem.When determining appropriate doses of medication, it is sometimes important to estimate the body surface area (BSA) of a patient. This surface area (in m2) can be approximated using the Mosteller formula BSA = 
1/2, where h is the patient's height in centimeters and w is the weight in kilograms. Determine the BSA for a patient with height 188 cm and weight 91 kg. Round your answer to two decimal places.
A. 22.58 m2 B. 4.75 m2 C. 0.04 m2 D. 2.18 m2
Solve.When interest is compounded continuously, the balance in an account after t years is given by 
, where P0 is the initial investment and k is the interest rate. Suppose that P0 is invested in a savings account where interest is compounded continuously at 9% per year. Express P(t) in terms of P0 and 0.09.
A. P(t) = P0e0.09t B. P(t) = P0e0.09 C. P(t) = P0e9t D. P(t) = P0e0.9t
