Answer:
a) 16.66%
b) 5%
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Since the teacher assumes each of the three possibilities are equally likely, then he assumes 33.33% to each one.
In this case the probability that you traveled to school that day by car would be
50% of 33.33% = (0.5)(0.3333) = 0.1666 = 16.66%
b)
In this case, the teacher would assume
90% ride on bicycle
0% take the bus
10% travel by car
So, in this case the probability would be
50% of 10% = (0.5)(0.1) = 0.05 = 5%
There are infinitely many solutions to this problem (which is why it asks what could those numbers be), so you just have to make one up!
Start with the first sentence.
x + y + z = 6.0
Now one of those numbers has to be less than 1. I'll choose x. And I'll choose a random number, say, 0.7.
0.7 + y + z = 6.0
Now I'll subtract 0.7 from both sides to see what y and z have to add up to.
0.7 + y + z - 0.7 = 6.0 - 0.7
y + z = 5.3
Now I'll choose a random number for y that's less than 5.3.
2.6 + z = 5.3
And subtract 2.6 from both sides to find z.
2.6 + z - 2.6 = 5.3 - 2.6
z = 2.7
And now we have our numbers!
x = <u>0.7</u>
y = <u>2.6</u>
z = <u>2.7</u>
