In the final exams, 40% of the students failed chemistry, 25% failed physics, and 19% failed both chemistry and physics. What is the probability that a randomly selected student failed physics given that he passed chemistry?
I have answered the question in the image below, but I would like to know if it is correct. If it is not, please include an explanation of why, as well as the step by step to get the correct answer
Answers
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
If 40% failed chemistry then 60% passed chemistry.
If 19% failed both chemistry and physics, and 25% failed physics, then 6% passed chemistry and failed physics.
If we let p' represent failing physics and c represent passing chemistry, then ...
P(p'|c) = P(p'c)/P(c)
P(p'|c) = 6%/60% = 0.10 = 10%
If the randomly chosen student passed chemistry, the probability is 10% that he failed physics.
__
Your answer is correct.
To solve this problem, we can use conditional probability.
Let's assume that there were 100 students in the final exam.
According to the problem, 40% of the students failed chemistry, which means that 60% of the students passed chemistry.
We can see that 25% of the students failed physics, and 19% of the students failed both chemistry and physics.To find the probability that a randomly selected student failed physics given that he passed chemistry, we need to use Bayes' theorem:
[tex]\sf P(Failed\: Physics | Passed\: Chemistry) = \dfrac{P(Failed\: Physics\: and\: Passed\: Chemistry)}{ P(Passed\: Chemistry)}[/tex]
We already know that P(Failed Physics and Passed Chemistry) = 6 students (from the Venn diagram), and P(Passed Chemistry) = 60 students (since 60% of the students passed chemistry).
Therefore,
[tex]\sf P(Failed\: Physics | Passed\: Chemistry) = \dfrac{6}{60} = 0.1\: or\: 10\%[/tex]
So the probability that a randomly selected student failed physics given that he passed chemistry is 10%.

Alvin’s family used 18.5 gallons of gas to drive 518 miles. How many miles did they drive per gallon of gas?
Please help me
Answers
Answer:
the answer is 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of miles Alvin’s family drive per gallon of gas is 28 miles.
Given that, Alvin’s family used 18.5 gallons of gas to drive 518 miles.
What is the unitary method?The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.
Number of miles drive per gallon of gas = Total number of miles ÷ Total number of gallons
= 518 ÷ 18.5
= 28 miles
Hence, the number of miles Alvin’s family drive per gallon of gas is 28 miles.

The half-life of caffeine in a healthy adult is 4.8 hours. Jeremiah drinks 18 ounces of caffeinated
coffee in the morning. How long will it take for only 60% of the caffeine to remain in his body?
Answers
We want to see how long will take a healthy adult to reduce the caffeine in his body to a 60%. We will find that the answer is 3.55 hours.
We know that the half-life of caffeine is 4.8 hours, this means that for a given initial quantity of coffee A, after 4.8 hours that quantity reduces to A/2.
So we can define the proportion of coffee that Jeremiah has in his body as:
P(t) = 1*e^{k*t}
Such that:
P(4.8 h) = 0.5 = 1*e^{k*4.8}
Then, if we apply the natural logarithm we get:
Ln(0.5) = Ln(e^{k*4.8})
Ln(0.5) = k*4.8
Ln(0.5)/4.8 = k = -0.144
Then the equation is:
P(t) = 1*e^{-0.144*t}
Now we want to find the time such that the caffeine in his body is the 60% of what he drank that morning, then we must solve:
P(t) = 0.6 = 1*e^{-0.144*t}
Again, we use the natural logarithm:
Ln(0.6) = Ln(e^{-0.144*t})
Ln(0.6) = -0.144*t
Ln(0.6)/-0.144 = t = 3.55
So after 3.55 hours only the 60% of the coffee that he drank that morning will still be in his body.

. An insurance company predicts that about an 80% chance that a person aged 20 will be alive at age 65 in a certain population. Suppose that 64 people aged 20 are selected at random. What is the probability that at least 48 of them will still be alive at age 65
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
the probabilty for exactly 48 people surviving is
(64 over 48) × 0.8⁴⁸ × 0.2¹⁶
the possible combinations of 48 people out of 64 associated with the probability of 48 survivors and 16 deaths.
"at least" is then sum of the probabilities of exactly 48, 49, 50, 51, ... 64 people surviving.
that is a longer calculation of these 17 possibilities.
they go
(64 over 48) × 0.8⁴⁸ × 0.2¹⁶ = 0.0714...
(64 over 49) × 0.8⁴⁹ × 0.2¹⁵ = 0.0933...
(64 over 50) × 0.8⁵⁰ × 0.2¹⁴ = 0.1119...
...
(64 over 63) × 0.8⁶³ × 0.2¹ = 0.00001004...
(64 over 64) × 0.8⁶⁴ × 0.2⁰ = 0.0000006277...
the sum is the probabilty (that at least 48 out of the 64 are alive at 64) of 0.8746...
the maximum single probability (for an exact number of survivors) is as expected at exactly 51 and exactly 52 survivors with a probability of 0.1229... for each case.
of course, this is around the expectation value of
64×0.8 = 51.2 (out of the 64 it is expected that per average 51.2 people survive and reach age 64).
a.Donkey Kong is an arcade game where an animated figure, Mario, jumps over barrels. In the original game, it was virtually impossible to get through to Level 22 before Mario was ‘killed’ by the game. This was an unintended consequence of how the number of bonus points was calculated and stored.
The number of bonus points a player starts with when they move onto a new level depends on the number of the level that they are moving onto. Behind the scenes, Donkey Kong takes the level that is about to be entered, multiplies it by 10 and adds 40, thus yielding the first two digits of the player’s starting bonus.
So, for example, if a player is about to start Level 2, the bonus number is calculated like this:
2 × 10 + 40 = 60.
This bonus number is stored in a single byte as an unsigned integer. The bonus number will never be 0.
i.Write down and evaluate an expression for the number of different unsigned integers that can be represented in a single byte. Then write down the largest unsigned integer that can be represented if no representation for 0 is required.
ii.Find the bonus number associated with Level 22. Explain why storing this bonus number will cause a problem.
iii.For Level 22, the bonus number actually stored is 4. Give one likely explanation for this.
iv.The bonus number is multiplied by 100 before it is displayed on the screen, so for Level 22 the number displayed on the screen is 400. The displayed number decreases by 100 every 1.75 seconds. When the displayed number reaches 0, Mario is automatically killed. How many seconds does the player have to finish Level 22?

Ricky paddles his canoe at a rate of 6 miles per hour in still water. Last weekend he canoed
on Carver Creek going downstream with the current for 9 miles and then returning upstream
against the current. If the trip took him 4 hours to complete, what equation can be used to find
the speed of the current
Answers
Answer:
3 miles/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, we already know that the speed at which he paddles is 6 miles/hour
Since his net speed while going down stream is his speed plus the current's speed, here's what we have:
NetSpeed = HisSpeed + CurrentSpeed
Replace the values we already know:
9 = 6 + x
X = 3 miles/hour
An equation that can be used to find the speed of the current is,
4 = 9/(4 - x) + 9/(4 + x).
What is speed?Velocity is the pace and direction of an item's movement, whereas speed is the time rate at which an object is travelling along a route.
Given:
Ricky paddles his canoe at a rate of 6 miles per hour in still water.
Last weekend, he canoed on Carver Creek, going downstream with the current for 9 miles and then returning upstream against the current.
The trip took him 4 hours to complete.
The downstream rate = 4 + x
And the upstream rate = 4-x.
Then an equation can be used to find the speed of the current is,
4 = 9/(4 - x) + 9/(4 + x)
Therefore, the equation is 4 = 9/(4 - x) + 9/(4 + x).
