The answer you’re looking for is: simplify.
When you rewrite an expression, we are simplifying it. We first use the distributive property through any groupings symbols, then evaluate terms we exponent that are given. Lastly, we combine any like terms, weather they are constants or variables.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
a) 0.0002
b) 0.0057
c) 0.0364
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets start by stating the probabilities of a person belonging to each policy:
Standard: 0.3
Preferred: 0.5
Ultra- Preferred: 0.2
The probability of person belonging to each policy AND dying in the next year:
Standard: 0.3 x 0.015 = 0.0045
Preferred: 0.5 x 0.002 = 0.001
Ultra- Preferred: 0.2 x 0.001 = 0.0002
a) The probability a ultra - preferred policy holder dies in the next year is 0.001. To find the probability of a person being both a ultra - preferred policy holder AND die in the next year is: 0.001 x 0.2= 0.0002
b) The probability is given by adding the probabilities calculated before :
0.0045 + 0.001 + 0.0002 = 0.0057
c) We use the results above again. This is 0.0002 / (0.001 + 0.0045). The answer comes out to be 0.0364
