Answer:
i) Probability that both candidates employed are women = 5/14
ii) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = 5/8
iii) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman = 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the probability that a man is employed be P(M) = 3/8
Probability that a woman is employed P(W) = 5/8
a) Probability that both candidates employed are women = (5/8) × (4/7) = 5/14
b) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = (probability that first candidate is a man and second candidate is a woman) + (probability that first candidate is a woman & second candidate is a woman)
= (3/8)(5/7) + (5/8)(4/7) = (15/56) + (20/56) = 35/56 = 5/8
c) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman
Given that the second candidate was a women, means that the first candidate-women was selected among other four women.
Probability = (4/8)/(5/8) = 4/5
The driver can drive around the track 54 times for $12. Thus for one dollar, he can drive around the track 54/12 times, or 4.5 times. If for each dollar he drives around 4.5 times, for 8 dollars, he can drive around 8*4.5 or 36 times.
If there are 207 students in 9 classes, in 1 class, there are 207/9 students, or 23 students per class. Since there are 23 students per class and there are classes, there are a total of 23*6 or 138 students in total.
Liam practices 24 times in 4 days. Thus he practices 24/4 or 6 times per day. His brother practices 12 times in 3 days. Thus he practices 12/3 or 4 times a day. Thus their rates are not equivalent.
