Answer:

There is a 2.17% probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is male and jogs.

It would be unusual to randomly select a person aged 40 years or older who is male and jogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities.

A 13.9% probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is a jogger, so P(A) = 0.13.

In​ addition, there is a 15.6% probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is male comma given that he or she jogs. I am going to say that P(B) is the probability that is a male. P(B/A) is the probability that the person is a male, given that he/she jogs. So P(B/A) = 0.156

The Bayes theorem states that:

P(B/A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which P(A \cap B) is the probability that the person does both thigs, so, in this problem, the probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is male and jogs.

So

P(A \cap B) = P(A).P(B/A) = 0.156*0.139 = 0.217

There is a 2.17% probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is male and jogs.

A probability is unusual when it is smaller than 5%.

So it would be unusual to randomly select a person aged 40 years or older who is male and jogs.

A business has two loans totaling $85,000. One loan has a rate of 4.5% and the other has a rate of 6%. This year, the business e
butalik [34]

Answer:

$30,000 and $55,000

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4.5% loan is x, and the 6% loan is y, then:

x + y = 85000

0.045x + 0.06y = 4650

Solve the system of equations with substitution or elimination.  Using substitution:

0.045x + 0.06(85000 − x) = 4650

0.045x + 5100 − 0.06x = 4650

450 = 0.015x

x = 30000

y = 55000
