A paint-store chain produces and sells latex and semigloss paint. Based on long-range sales, the probability that a customer will purchase latex paint is 0.75. Of those that purchase latex paint, 60% also purchase rollers. But only 30% of semigloss paint buyers purchase rollers. A randomly selected buyer purchases a roller and a can of paint. What is the probability that the paint is latex?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that the paint  latex = 0.857

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let consider X to be the event that the customer has purchased the latex paint

Let consider Y to be the event that the customer has purchased semigloss paint.

Now, the probability of X i.e. P(X) = 0.75

SInce X and Y are mutually exhaustive)

P(Y) = 1 - P(X)

P(Y) = 1 - 0.75

P(Y) = 0.25

Similarly, Let Consider Z be the event that the customer has purchased a roller.

We are being told that P(Z|X) = 0.6

P(Z|Y) = 0.30

[tex]P(X|Z) = \dfrac{P(Z|X)(P(X) }{P(Z|X)*P(X)+P(Z|Y)*P(Y)}[/tex]

[tex]P(X|Z) = \dfrac{0.6 \times 0.75 }{(0.6 \times 0.75) +(0.3 \times 0.25)}[/tex]

[tex]P(X|Z) = \dfrac{0.45 }{(0.45) +(0.075)}[/tex]

[tex]P(X|Z) = \dfrac{0.45 }{0.525}[/tex]

[tex]P(X|Z) = 0.857[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the paint  latex = 0.857

Answer 2

The concept of probability is used in order to determine the probability that the paint is latex and the probability is 0.857.

Given :

The probability that a customer will purchase latex paint is 0.75. The customer who purchase latex paint, 60% also purchase rollers.The customer who purchase semigloss paint, 30% also purchase rollers.

First, determine the probability that a customer will purchase semigloss paint.

[tex]P(A) = 1- P(B)\\P(A) = 1 - 0.75\\P(A) = 0.25[/tex]

In the above expression P(B) is the probability that a customer will purchase latex paint.

Now, determine the probability that the paint is latex.

[tex]P(B|C) = \dfrac{P(C|B)\times P(B)}{P(C|B)\times P(B)+P(C|A)\times P(A)}[/tex]

Now, substitute the values of all the known terms in the above expression.

[tex]P(B|C) = \dfrac{0.6\times 0.75}{(0.6\times 0.75)+(0.3\times 0.25)}[/tex]

Simplify the below expression.

[tex]P(B|C) = \dfrac{0.45}{(0.45)+(0.075)}[/tex]

[tex]P(B|C) = \dfrac{0.45}{0.525}[/tex]

[tex]P(B|C) = 0.857[/tex]

So, the probability that the paint is latex is 0.857.

2/10+5/10=7/10

Answer:

0.7 or 7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding fractions they always need to have the same denominators,and the one they both have similar to is being equal to 10.

1/2 will get multiply with 5 on the numinator and the denominator having you get a fraction of 5/10.

You will do the same with 1/5 multiply it with 2 on the numinator and denominator having you get  5/10.

Since the dneominators are the same you keep it 10,and just add 5 and 2. Giving you a answer of 7/10

ej bisects def, m dej-5x+7, m JEF=8x-8. find x

Answers

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given has been sketched out in the attachment below.

Line segment EJ is an angle bisector of angle DEF. Therefore, m<DEJ = m<JEF.

The equation to find x would be expressed as follows:

5x + 7 = 8x - 8

Subtract 5x from each side (subtraction property of equality)

5x + 7 - 5x = 8x - 8 - 5x

5x - 5x + 7 = 8x - 5x - 8

0 + 7 = 3x - 8

7 = 3x - 8

Add 8 to both sides of the equation (addition property of equality)

7 + 8 = 3x - 8 + 8

15 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

15/3 = 3x/3

5 = x

x = 5

Find a · b.
a = −5, 1 / 2 ,
b = −5, 6

Answers

Answer:

a · b  = 28 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given vectors

a = (-5, 1/2)

b = (-5, 6)

The scalar or dot product of the two vectors, given by a · b is

a · b  = (-5, 1/2) · (-5, 6)

To solve this, multiply the first term in a with the first term in b and add the result to the product of the second term in a and the second term in b. i.e

a · b  = (-5 x -5) +  (1/2 x 6)

a · b  = 25 + 3

a · b  = 28

Therefore, the dot product of a and b is

a · b  = 28 units

Answers

Complete question:

A book shop sold fiction books and cartoon books at a ratio of 3:5. Then, it sold four times as many fiction books and 40% more cartoon books. As a result, it sold 800 more fiction books than cartoon books. How many fiction and cartoon books were sold altogether in the end?

Answer:

3040

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Sales ratio = 3:5 (fiction : cartoon)

Let total number of books sold = x

Fiction books = 3x

Cartoon books = 5x

Four times as many fiction books = 4 × fiction books = 4*(3x) = 12x - - - (1)

40% more cartoon books = 40/100 = 0.4

5x(1.40) = 7x - - - (2)

As a result, 800 more fiction books than cartoon :

Fiction - cartoon = 800

12x - 7x = 800

5x = 800

x = 160

Substitute x into (1) and (2)

Fiction books : 12(160) = 1920

Cartoon books : 7(160) = 1120

1920 + 1120 = 3,040

Find the midpoint of the line segment connecting the two points (5,-3) (-4,7)

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

[tex]( \frac{1}{2} \: , \: 2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula

[tex]M = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \: \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )[/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(5,-3) and (-4,7)

The midpoint is

[tex]M = ( \frac{5 - 4}{2} , \: \frac{ - 3 + 7}{2} ) \\ = ( \frac{1}{2} \: , \: \frac{4}{2} )[/tex]

We have the final answer as
