Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

m = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can suppose that the number we are looking for is for example 5.

(we can do so because the probability is the same for each number - it'sna fair dice)

For the first toss the probability we have 5 is 1/6 (we have 6 numbers on the dice and number 5 is just one of the possible 6 outcomes).

For the second toss the probability we have 5 is again 1/6.

For the rest of 3 tosses we don'tcare what number we will get( we have our two consecutive 5s), so all of the outcomes for the rest of 3 tosses are good for us (probability is 6/6 = 1)

Threfore, the probability to get two consecutive 5s is 1/6 * 1/6 * 1 * 1 * 1 = 1/36.

We can see that m = 1.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

0.6154 = 61.54% probability that the student is an undergraduate

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Foreign

Event B: Undergraduate.

There are four times as many undergraduates as graduate students

So 4/5 = 80% are undergraduate students and 1/5 = 20% are graduate students.

Probability the student is foreign:

10% of 80%

25% of 20%. So

$P(A) = 0.1*0.8 + 0.25*0.2 = 0.13$

Probability that a student is foreign and undergraduate:

10% of 80%. So

$P(A \cap B) = 0.1*0.8 = 0.08$

What is the probability that the student is an undergraduate?

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.08}{0.13} = 0.6154$

0.6154 = 61.54% probability that the student is an undergraduate
