74 <strong>Chapter</strong> 3: <strong>Probability</strong>Applying Bayes’ Theorem. In Exercises 21-24, assume that the Altigauge Manufacturing Company makes 80%of all electrocardiograph machines, the Bryant Company makes 15% of them, and the Cardioid Company makesthe other 5%. The electrocardiograph machines made by Altigauge have a 4% rate of defects, the Bryantmachines have a 6% rate of defect, and the Cardioid machines have a 9% rate of defects.We’ll make a table that displays these data had 10000 electrocardiograph machines been made.Altigauge Bryant Cartioid TotalNot DefectiveDefective7680320141090455459545455Total 8000 1500 500 10000number made by Altigaugetotal number made80001000021. a.
