By definition of conditional probability, the probability that the person also likes tomatoes on their salad is 0.73 or 73% (last option).

<h3 /><h3>Definition of probability</h3>

Probability is the greater or lesser possibility that a certain event will occur.

In other words, the probability establishes a relationship between the number of favorable events and the total number of possible events.

<h3>Definition of conditional probability</h3>

The conditional probability P(A|B) is the probability that an event A occurs, knowing that another event B also occurs. That is, it is the probability that event A occurs if event B has occurred. Is defined as:

P(A|B) = P(A∩B)÷ P(B)

<h3 /><h3>Probability that the person also likes tomatoes on their salad</h3>

In this case, you know:

  • Event A: Person likes tomatoes on their salad.
  • Event B: Person likes cheese on their salad.

Being the event A∩B (A intersection B) when A and B occur simultaneously, then:

  • P(A)= 78%=0.78
  • P(B)= 49%= 0.49
  • P(A∩B)= 36%=0.36

Suppose a person who eats salad is randomly selected and likes cheese on his salad, the probability that the person also likes tomatoes on their salad is:

P(B|A) = P(A∩B)÷ P(B)

Then:

P(A|B) = 0.36÷0.49

<u><em>P(B|A) = 0.73= 73%</em></u>

Finally, the probability that the person also likes tomatoes on their salad is 0.73 or 73% (last option).

A 90 pound object on earth weighs 15 pounds on the moon if an object weighs 156 pounds on earth how much is a win the moon
Tanya [424]
26 pounds

Because

E is the objects gravity in earth
M objects gravity on moon

E=km
Or
90=15k

90/15=15k/15

6=k

156=6m

156/6 =6m/6

26=m

Look at this inequality.<br><br><br>−0.2x+1.2&lt;1.1
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

x > 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 0.2x + 1.2 < 1.1 ( subtract 1.2 from both sides )

- 0.2x < - 0.1

Divide both sides by - 0.2, reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.

x > 0.5

E + f =48<br> e=3f<br> Plz help - thanks
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

given \:  \\ \\ e = 3f \\  e + f = 48 \\  \\ 3f + f = 48 \\   4f = 48 \\ f =  \frac{48}{4}  \\ f = 12 \\ so. \\ e = 3 \times 12 = 36

Find the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that passes through
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 3y = 10

-3y = -12x + 10

y = 4x - 10/3....the slope here is 4

parallel lines will have the same slope

y = mx + b

slope(m) = 4

(-5,3)...x = -5 and y = 3

now we sub and find b, the y int

3 = 4(-5) + b

3 = -20 + b

3 + 20 = b

23 = b

so ur equation is : y = 4x + 23 <==
