A randomly selected sample of 100 horse owners found that 72 of them feed two flakes of grass hay in the morning and one flake o

f alfalfa plus one flake of grass hay in the evening to their horses while the rest feed two flakes of grass hay in the morning and one flake of alfalfa plus oat hay in the evening. The estimated probability that horse owners feed grass hay in the A.M. and alfalfa plus oat hay in the P.M. is:

We know that both groups feed grass hay in the morning, so that's 100/100.

First group feeds alfalfa and grass in the evening

Second group feeds alfalfa and oat hay in the evening. 

The estimated probability that horse owners feed grass hay the morning (AM) is 100%.

The estimated probability that horse owners feed alfalfa + oat hay in the pm is 28/100 or 28% (C)

Answer:

The correct answer is B. 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of horse owners =100

72 of the horse owners feed their horses in the morning with

• 2 flakes of grass hay

• 1 flake of alfalfa

72 of the horse owners feed their horses in the evening with

  • 1 flake of grass hay in the evening.

28 of the horse owners feed their horses in the morning with

• 2 flakes of grass hay  

• 1 flake of alfalfa

28 of the horse owners feed their horses in the evening with

  • Oat hay  

There are two categories of farmer

P(72) =72/100 =0.72

P(28) = 28/100 = 0.28

P(grass hay in A.M for 72 farmers) = 1/2*72/100  =0.36

P (grass hay in A.M for 28 farmers) =1/2*28/100 = 0.14

P (grass hay in A.M for both farmers) = 0.36 + 0.14 = 0.5

P(alfalfa plus oat hay in P.M for 72 farmers) =0

P(alfalfa plus oat hay in P.M for 28 farmers) =0

P(alfalfa plus oat hay in P.M for both farmers) = 0+ 0 = 0

The estimated probability that horse owners feed grass hay in the AM and alfalfa plus oat hay in the PM is

P (E) = P (grass hay in AM for both farmers) + P(alfalfa plus oat hay in PM for both farmers)

  P(E)    =0.5 + 0 = 0.5

John looked at his bank account and noticed that he had $2,029.90 in his account. All that he could remember is that he created
Over [174]

We will have that for the previous year, he had in the account:

m_{y6}=2029.90-\frac{2029.90\cdot6}{100}\Rightarrow m_{y6}=1908.106

For the year previous to that one, he had:

m_{y5}=1908.106-\frac{1908.106\cdot6}{100}\Rightarrow m_{y5}=1793.61964

For the previous year to that, he had:

m_{y4}=1793.61964-\frac{1793.61964\cdot6}{100}\Rightarrow m_{y4}=1686.002462

For the year previous to that one, he had:

m_{y3}=1686.002462-\frac{1686.002462\cdot6}{100}\Rightarrow m_{y3}=1584.842314

For the second year that the money was in the account, there was:

m_{y2}=1584.842314-\frac{1584.842314\cdot6}{100}\Rightarrow m_{y2}=1489.751775

And the orinial ammount of money that was in the account was:

m_{y1}=1489.751775-\frac{1489.751775\cdot6}{100}\Rightarrow m_{y1}=1400.366669

From this, we know that Jhon had originally $1400.37 in the bank account.
