X = jane, y = jasmine, z = jocelyn

x + y + z = 56
x = 3z
y = 2z + 2

3z + 2z + 2 + z = 56
6z + 2 = 56
6z = 56 - 2
6z = 54
z = 54/6
z = 9 <==== jocelyn

x = 3z
x = 3(9)
x = 27 <=== jane

y = 2z + 2
y = 2(9) + 2
y = 18 + 2
y = 20 <=== jasmine

Suppose that 70% of the orders on a particular website are shipped to the person who is making the order and the remaining 30% a
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

0.18 ; 0.1875 ; No

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

Person making the order = P

Other person = O

Gift wrapping = w

P(p) = 0.7 ; P(O) = 0.3 ; p(w|O) = 0.60 ; P(w|P) = 0.10

What is the probability that a randomly selected order will be a gift wrapped and sent to a person other than the person making the order?

Using the relation :

P(W|O) = P(WnO) / P(O)

P(WnO) = P(W|O) * P(O)

P(WnO) = 0.60 * 0.3 = 0.18

b. What is the probability that a randomly selected order will be gift wrapped?

P(W) = P(W|O) * P(O) + P(W|P) * P(P)

P(W) = (0.60 * 0.3) + (0.1 * 0.7)

P(W) = 0.18 + 0.07

P(W) = 0.1875

c. Is gift wrapping independent of the destination of the gifts? Justify your response statistically

No.

For independent events the occurrence of A does not impact the occurrence if the other.

Find sum of three consecutive even integers if the largest integer is Y
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

3y -- 6

Step-by-step explanation:

if the largest number is y, then the other two integers would be (y -- 2) and (y -- 4).

Therefore the sum of the integers would be

y + (y -- 2) + (y -- 4) = 3y -- 6.
