Step-by-step explanation:
Given
randomly selecting a male
randomly selecting someone with blue eyes
Solving (a): Interpret P(M|B)
The above implies conditional probability
The interpretation is: the probability of selecting a male provided that a person with blue eyes has been selected
Solving (b): is (a) the same as P(B|M)
No, they are not the same.
The interpretation of P(B|M) is: the probability of selecting a person with blue eyes provided that a male has been selected
The minimum point is (1/2, 0) because absolute value can not be negative
Given:
The rate of interest on three accounts are 7%, 8%, 9%.
She has twice as much money invested at 8% as she does in 7%.
She has three times as much at 9% as she has at 7%.
Total interest for the year is $150.
To find:
Amount invested on each rate.
Solution:
Let x be the amount invested at 7%. Then,
The amount invested at 8% = 2x
The amount invested at 9% = 3x
Total interest for the year is $150.
Multiply both sides by 100.
Divide both sides by 50.
The amount invested at 7% is 
.
The amount invested at 8% is
The amount invested at 9% is
Therefore, the stockbroker invested $300 at 7%, $600 at 8%, and $900 at 9%.
