Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color, but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be th

e emergence of characteristics such as deafness. A 1992 study of Dalmatians (by Strain and others, as reported in The Dalmatians Dilemma) found the following: (i) 31% of all Dalmatians have blue eyes. (ii) 38% of all Dalmatians are deaf. (iii) If a Dalmatian has blue eyes, there is a 42% chance that it is deaf. What is the probability that a randomly chosen Dalmatian is blue-eyed and deaf? 0.31 * 0.38 = 0.1178 0.31 * 0.42 = 0.1302 0.38 * 0.42 = 0.1596 0.31/0.38 = 0.8158 0.31/0.42 = 0.7381 0.38/0.42 = 0.9048

Answer:

The probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

P(Blue eyes) = 31%

P(Deaf) = 38%

P(Deaf | Blue eyes) = 42%

Formula for conditional probability:

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

Now, let A be the event where the dog is deaf and B be the the event where dog is blue eyed.

P( \text{ Deaf}|\text{Blue eyes}) = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{P(\text{Blue eyes})}\\\\0.42 = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{0.31}\\\\P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes}) = 0.42\times 0.31 = 0.1302 = 13.02\%

Hence, the probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

Jimmy has a piece of string that is 6 3/4 inches long, and Sam has a piece of string that is 7 1/2 inches long.
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

3/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract Jimmys string length from Sam's string length

7 1/2 - 6 3/4

Get a common denominator of 4

7 1/2*2/2 - 6 3/4

7 2/4 - 6 3/4

Borrow 1 ( or 4/4) from the 7

6 4/4 + 2/4 - 6 3/4

6 6/4 - 6 3/4

3/4
