Answer:

Question 1: $P ( B | Y ) = \frac{ P ( B and Y)}{ P (Y)} = \frac{ \frac{2}{16}}{ \frac{4}{16}} = \frac{1}{2}$

Question 2:

A. $P ( Y | B ) = \frac{ P(Y and B) }{ P(B) } = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{3}$

B. $P( Z | B ) = \frac{ P ( Z and B)}{ P (B)}= \frac{ \frac{1}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{6}$

C. $P((Y or Z)|B) = \frac{ P ((Y or Z) and B)}{P(B)}= \frac{ \frac{3}{16}}{ \frac{6}{16}}= \frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional probability is defined by

$P(A|B)= \frac{P(A and B)}{P(B)}$

with P(A and B) beeing the probability of both events occurring simultaneously.

Question 1:

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

$P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}$

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

$P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }$

then

P( B and Y)= \frac{ 2 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

$P ( B | Y ) = \frac{ P ( B and Y)}{ P (Y)} = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{4}{16} } = \frac{1}{2}$

Question 2.A:

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

$P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }$

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

$P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}$

then

P( B and Y)= \frac{ 2 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

$P ( Y | B ) = \frac{ P(Y and B) }{ P(B) } = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{3}$

Question 2.B:

Z: Championships won by the 13 - 15 years old, beeing

$P ( Z)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }$

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

$P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}$

then

P( Z and B)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

$P( Z | B ) = \frac{ P ( Z and B)}{ P (B)}= \frac{ \frac{1}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{6}$

Question 3.B

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

$P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }$

Z: Championships won by the 13 - 15 years old, beeing

$P ( Z)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }$

then

$P (Y or Z) = P(Y) + P(Z) = \frac{6}{16}$

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

$P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}$

$P((YorZ) and B)= \frac{3}{16}$

By definition,

$P((Y or Z)|B) = \frac{ P ((Y or Z) and B)}{P(B)}= \frac{ \frac{3}{16}}{ \frac{6}{16}}= \frac{1}{2}$

The price of a video game was reduced from $60 to $45. By what percentage was the price of the video game reduced?* O 15% O 25%

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The new price, $45, can be expressed as a percentage of $60 by taking it as a fraction of $60, converting to a decimal value, and multiplying by 100%. $45/$60=3/4=0.75, 0.75x100%=75%. So since 100%-75%=25%, the value was reduced by 25%.
