Answer:

A: 0.1475 , B: 0.3389

Explanation:

a. Probability Refrigerator purchased from store lasts more than 15 years :

Prob(refrigerator purchase from A) and Prob(refrigerator from A life > 15 years) + .........Prob(refrigerator purchase from D) and Prob(refrigerator from D life >15 years)

(0.40x0.1)+(0.25x0.20)+(0.15x0.05)+(0.20x0.25) = 0.04+0.05+0.0075+0.05 = 0.1475  

b. Refrigerator last > 15 years given , Probability it is from B :

[ Prob (B Purchase) . Prob (life > 15, given from B) ] / Prob (Life > 15)

P (B/15) = [P(B).P(15/B)]  / [P15]          {Bayes Theorum}

= [(0.25)(0.20)] / 0.1475  = 0.05 / 0.1475

= 0.3389

Liula [17]

Answer:

50 customers per day

Explanation:

For computing the capacity required customers per day, first, we have to  compute the current demand per day which is shown below:

Current demand = Average number of  pets per day × estimated percentage

= 74 pets × 60%

=  44.4 per day

Now the capacity required per day would be

= (Current demand per day) ÷ (1 -  capacity cushion percentage)
