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.

Your small business spent $40 on food and another $60 on materials. Then, you sold an item for $120, but you had to pay a $90 service fee. Finally, you were given a refund from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for $70. If the expression describing these transactions is the following, then how does it evaluate?

Answers

Answer:

40$+60$=100$ spent

120$sold

90$ payed

70$ refund

120 (sold) -90 (payed) =30+70 (refund) =100$ (profit)

Step-by-step explanation:

You spent 100$

And you sold and got 120 but you payed 90$ from 120$ money left is 30$

Then they refunded you (pay back the money (give you the money ))

So the money that your left with is 30$ and the refund money is 70$

So add the money that your left with is gives you 100$

The answer is the first choice. If every 2 cm. is 4 cm., that means that the dimensions' values are doubled. Then, you can just double the dimensions. Preferably, in my opinion, this is the easier way to go. By your preference, though, you can do it the longer way as well.

There are 4 2s in the number 8.

There are 3 2s in the number 6.

If each of the 2s are 4s,

So, therefore,

Transforming the 2s to 4s,

4x4=16 cm.

Consider the probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support. Assume the probability that a given software user will call technical support is 97%. Specify whether the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

Answers

Answer:

Since [tex]n(1-p) = 3.72 < 10[/tex], the normal curve cannot be used as an approximation to the binomial probability.

100% probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

It is needed that:

[tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex]

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Out of 124 software users

This means that [tex]n = 124[/tex]

Assume the probability that a given software user will call technical support is 97%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.97[/tex]

Conditions:

[tex]np = 124*0.97 = 120.28 \geq 10[/tex]

[tex]n(1-p) = 124*0.03 = 3.72 < 10[/tex]

Since [tex]n(1-p) = 3.72 < 10[/tex], the normal curve cannot be used as an approximation to the binomial probability.

Consider the probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.

The lowest possible probability of those is 27, so, if it is 0, since it is considerably below the mean, 100% probability of being greater. We have that:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 27) = C_{124,27}.(0.97)^{27}.(0.03)^{97} = 0[/tex]

1 - 0 = 1

100% probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.
