In my town, it's rainy one third of the days. Given that it is rainy, there will be heavy traffic with probability 1/2, and given that it is not rainy, there will be heavy traffic with probability 1/4. If it's rainy and there is heavy traffic, I arrive late for work with probability 1/2. On the other hand, the probability of being late is reduced to 1/8 if it is not rainy and there is no heavy traffic. In other situations (rainy and no traffic, not rainy and traffic) the probability of being late is 0.25. You pick a random day.
a. What is the probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late?
b. What is the probability that I am late?
c. Given that I arrived late at work, what is the probability that it rained that day?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.125 = 12.5% probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late.

b) 0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.

c) 0.5454 = 54.54% probability that it rained that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

Question a:

2/3 probability of not raining.

If not raining, 1/4 probability of heavy traffic.

1 - 0.25 = 0.75 = 3/4 probability of not late.

So

[tex]p = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{2}{16} = 0.125[/tex]

0.125 = 12.5% probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late.

b. What is the probability that I am late?

0.5 of (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6(rainy and heavy traffic).

0.25 of (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6(rainy and no traffic).

1/8 = 0.125 of (2/3)*(3/4) = 1/2(not rainy and no traffic).

0.25 of (2/3)*(1/4) = 1/6(not rainy and traffic). So

[tex]P(A) = 0.5\frac{1}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} + 0.125\frac{3}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} = \frac{0.5 + 0.25 + 3*0.125 + 0.25}{6} = 0.2292[/tex]

0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.

c. Given that I arrived late at work, what is the probability that it rained that day?

Event A: Late

Event B: Rained

0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.2292[/tex]

Probability of late and rain:

0.5 of 1/6(rain and heavy traffic).

0.25 of 1/6(rain and no traffic). So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.5\frac{1}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} = \frac{0.5 + 0.25}{6} = \frac{0.75}{6} = 0.125[/tex]

Probability:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.125}{0.2292} = 0.5454[/tex]

0.5454 = 54.54% probability that it rained that day.

Maybe you have considered buying a term life insurance policy. The expected value of any term life insurance product yields a positive expected value for the insurance company and a negative expected value for you, meaning the insurance company will make profits by selling their insurance products. Would you still buy the term life insurance? Why or why not? Are there other examples other than insurance that uses this same concept?

Answers

Answer:

Yes one should consider to buy the policy as important to have insured plan that help at the time of need.

Step-by-step explanation:

Term of life insurance is a form of life insurance which guarantees the payment of the stated death benefit. If the person des during the plan the term expires.  The policy has no value other than guarantee benefits. The term life insurance will make products by selling products and thus it's necessary to have insurance. Health, age, and life expectancy are some of the points that need to consider for buying plans.

How do you expand ln(1/49^k)

Answers

Answer:

There are a few rules that we can use here:

ln(a^x) = x*ln(a)

ln(a) - ln(b) = ln(a/b)

ln(1) = 0

So here we want to expand:

ln(1/49^k)

First we can use the second property to get:

ln(1/49^k) = ln(1) - ln(49^k)

using the third property, we have:

ln(1/49^k) = ln(1) - ln(49^k) = 0 - ln(49^k)

ln(1/49^k) =  - ln(49^k)

Now we can use the first property to get:

ln(1/49^k) =  - k*ln(49)

Now we can use the fact that:

49 = 7*7 = 7^2

then:

- k*ln(49) = -k*ln(7^2) = -2*k*ln(7)

So we have:

ln(1/49^k) = (-2*ln(7))*k

We can expand it anymore because this is a real number  "(-2*ln(7))" times a variable k.

What is the right triangle?

A right triangle is defined as a triangle in which one angle is a right angle or two sides are perpendicular.

According to the given figure,

Here is a right triangle

Let, The hypotenuse = 15

perpendicular = z and base = 15 = a + b

⇒ sin60 = perpendicular/hypotenuse = z/15

⇒ z = 15sin60 = (15√3)/2

⇒ cos30 = base/hypotenuse = b/z

⇒ b = zcos30 = (15√3)/2 * √3/2 = 45/4

⇒ a + b = 15

Substitute the value of b in the above equation,

⇒ a = 15-b = 15-45/4 = 15/4

Hence, the value of a is 15/4.

Set up an approximate 96% confidence interval for the unknown proportion of reds in the jar.

Answers

Answer:

(0.3478, 0.5522)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of red marbles, x = 45

Total number of marbles, n = 100

Phat = x / n = 45 / 100 = 0.45

The confidence interval, C.I is given by :

Phat ± Zcritical * standard error

Phat ± Zcritical * √Phat(1 - Phat) / n

Zcritical at 96% = 2.0537

The standard error = √Phat(1 - Phat) / n

S.E = √(0.45 * 0.55) / 100 = 0.0497493

C.I = 0.45 ± (2.0537 * 0.0497493)

C.I = 0.45 ± 0.10217013741

C. I = (0.3478, 0.5522)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8 = 2³

so, when we convert

[tex] {8}^{x - 3} [/tex]

into a "2 to the power of" expression, we get therefore

[tex] ({2}^{3}) ^{x - 3} [/tex]

and when we have an exponent of an exponent, we can simplify by multiplying these two exponents.

3×(x-3) = 3x - 9

and therefore we get

[tex] {2}^{3x - 9} [/tex]

and by the way, we can now even easily solve this for x, as we know

[tex] {2}^{4x} = {2}^{3x + x} [/tex]

after all, because 4x = x + x + x + x = 3x + x = ...

and because we got also

[tex] {2}^{4x} = {2}^{3x - 9} [/tex]

we know that 3x + x = 3x - 9

and that gives us x = -9

find the slope of the line
answer choices: 4, 5, 20, 25

Answers

Answer: Third Choice. 20

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of a slope.

In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line.

Slope = Rise / Run = Δy / Δx = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Solve:

STEP ONE: Select two points on the line that intersects with the grids

A (0, 5)

B (1, 25)

STEP TWO: Apply the formula

Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Slope = (25 - 5) / (1 - 0)

Slope = 20 / 1

Slope = 20

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope of the line by using the slope formula

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)

Where the x and y values are derived from points chosen on the line

The points chosen may vary but I have chosen (1,25) and (2,45)

Now that we have chosen the points let's define our variables ( our variables are x1 x2 y1 and y2 )

x1 is the x value of the first point chosen.The x value of the first point chosen is 1 so x1 = 1

x2 is the x value of the second point chosen. The x value of the second point chosen is 2 so x2 = 2

y1 is the y value of the second point chosen. The y value of the first point chosen is 25 so y1 = 25

y2 is the y value of the second point chosen. The y value of the second point chosen is 45 so y2 = 45

Now to find the slope we simply plug in the values of the variables into the formula

Formula: (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)

Variables: x1 = 1, x2 = 2, y1 = 25, y2 = 45

Plug in values

(45-25)/(2-1)

Subtract top numbers

(20)/(2-1)

Subtract bottom numbers

20/1

Simplify

The slope is 20
