ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

  24/35, about 69%

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given can be put into a 2-way table (attached). It shows that 0.48 of all calls were answered and resulted in a mortgage application. Altogether, 0.70 of all calls resulted in a mortgage application. Thus the conditional probability of interest is ...

  p(spoke to attendant | applied for a mortgage) = p(spoke & applied)/p(applied)

  = 0.48/0.70 = 24/35 ≈ 69%

The diameter of cold virus cell is about 3x10-9 meter,and the diameter of a streptoccus bacterium cell is about 9x10-7 meter. Wh
Archy [21]

Here we need to compare the orders of magnitude of two measures.

We will see that the bacteria is<em> 300 times larger than the virus.</em>

We know that:

The diameter of the virus-cell is:

D_v = 3 \cdot 10^{-9} m

The diameter of the bacteria cell is:

D_b = 9 \cdot 10^{-7} m

So, to compare them, first notice that both are in the same units, meters, so we only need to <u>compare the numbers</u>.

Is common sense to identify the one with the largest exponent as the largest number, and the largest exponent is -7, thus <u>the bacteria should be the larger one.</u>

But let's prove this with math, remember the property:

\frac{a^n}{a^m} = a^{n - m}

Let's take the quotient between the diameters and see what we get, I will use the <u>diameter of the bacteria in the numerator</u>, thus <u>if the quotient is larger than 1, it would mean that the bacteria is greater and by how much.</u>

quotient = \frac{ 9 \cdot 10^{-7} m}{ 3 \cdot 10^{-9} m}  = \frac{9}{3} \cdot 10^{-7 + 9}\\\\= 3*10^2

So we can say that the bacteria is 3*10^2 = 3*100 = 300 times larger than the virus.
