Answer:

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that the shares of a company that fires its CEO will increase by more than 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

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

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem:

Event A: Company fires the CEO

Event B: Shares increase by more than 5%.

Probability of a company firing it's CEO:

35% of 100 - 4 = 96%(shares did not increase by more than 5%).

60% of 4%(shared did increase by more than 5%).

So

$P(A) = 0.35*0.96 + 0.6*0.04 = 0.36$

Intersection of events A and B:

Fires the CEO and shared increased by more than 5%, is 60% of 4%. So

$P(A \cap B) = 0.6*0.04 = 0.024$

Probability that the shares of a company that fires its CEO will increase by more than 5%.

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.024}{0.36} = 0.0667$

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that the shares of a company that fires its CEO will increase by more than 5%.

The two tables give the number of pints of red and blue paint that are used to make different amounts of two shades of purple pa

ValentinkaMS [17]

The two highlighted rows show that for the same amount of blue, Purple #1 uses more red than Purple #2.

This means that Purple #1 is a redder shade of purple than Purple #2.

Purple #2 is a bluer shade of purple than Purple #1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two highlighted rows show that for the same amount of blue, Purple #1 uses more red than Purple #2.

Making blue's quantity as 3 parts for purple #1 implies red part becomes 1.5 to maintain the ratio 1:2

Purple #1 has 1/3 parts red and 2/3 parts blue. Purple #2 has 1/4th part red and 3/4th part blue.

Hence, Purple #1 is a redder shade of purple than Purple #2.

From the above explanation, Purple #2 is a bluer shade of purple than Purple #1.

Sure hopes this helps you :)

Use elimination to solve each system below.

aliina [53]

Answer:

System 1 : {3,0}; System 2 : {6,-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 6

-2x - y = -6

2y = 0

y = 0

-2x = -6

x = 3

system 2

2x + 3y = 6

2x + 2y = 8

y = -2

2x -4 = 8

2x = 12

x = 6

Three different golfers played a different number of holes today. Rory played 999 holes and had a total of 424242 strokes. Alici

Marat540 [252]

Golfer had the lowest number of strokes per hole is Alicia  = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have , Three different golfers played a different number of holes today. Rory played 999 holes and had a total of 424242 strokes. Alicia played 181818 holes and had a total of 797979 strokes. Rickie played 272727 holes and had a total of 123123123 strokes. We have to find , Which golfer had the lowest number of strokes per hole :

Rory:

Number of strokes per hole = $\frac{424242}{999} = 425$

Alicia:

Number of strokes per hole = $\frac{797979}{181818} = 4$

Rickie:

Number of strokes per hole = $\frac{123123123}{272727} = 451$

∴ Golfer had the lowest number of strokes per hole is Alicia  = 4.
