A master student is planning to take a qualifying exam in the coming summer. She has three chances. The first one is in June. If

she fails the 1st one, then she can have a 2nd try in July, and if she also fails that one, she will take the 3rd one in August. If she fails all three exams, then she is not qualified. The chance of passing the 1st one is 0.5, the chance of passing the 2nd one is 0.7, and the chance of passing the 3rd one is 0.8. And these chances are independent. a) What is the probability that she passes the qualification? b) Given that she passes the qualification, what is the conditional probability that she passes on the second try?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P_1=Probability of clearing exam in 1 st attempt=0.5

P_2=Probability of clearing exam in 2 nd attempt=0.7

P_3=Probability of clearing exam in 3 rd attempt=0.8

Probability that she passes the exam=P(1 st\ attempt)+P(1\ fail)\cdot P(2\ pass)+P(1\ fail)\cdot P(2\ fail)\cdot P(3 rd pass)

P=0.5+0.5\times 0.7+0.5\times 0.3\times 0.8=0.97

(b)P(Pass qualification on 2nd try|passes qualification)

P(Pass qualification on 2nd try|passes qualification)=\frac{P(fail\ on\ 1 )\cdot P(pass\ in\ 2nd)}{P(passes)}

P(Pass qualification on 2nd try|passes qualification)=\frac{0.5\times 0.7}{0.97}=0.3608

Answer:

<em>Each classroom received 120 gifts and the hospital received 12 gifts</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Division As Evenly Distribution</u>

The first concept we manage when learning about divisions is how to distribute an amount N among m elements such as everyone receives the same amount.

If the nature of the problem allows distributing decimal portions of N, then every receiver gets exactly the same amount N/m.

But things are different when the division must be an integer number. For example, if we wanted to divide gifts, we cannot give partial gifts. So the correct division is a matter of the study of integer numbers.

If N is divisible by m, i.e. there is no remainder in the division, then each element will receive N/m gifts. But what if they are not divisible? We must divide and take the integer part of the division and discard the remainder

We want to divide 2,292 gifts to the school, where there are 19 classrooms. If we divide 2,292/19 we get 120 and a remainder of 12.

Answer. Each classroom received 120 gifts and the hospital received 12 gifts
