You can use the formula for conditional probability as Puzzling did. However in this problem it is easier just to restrict yourself and enumerate the cases that are left. 

<span>There are 4 jacks. One of them is a heart. So the probability is 1/4. </span>

<span>If you want to look at what the formula for conditional probability does, it adjusts your probability by restricting the "universe". </span>

<span>P(heart and jack)/P(jack) </span>
<span>= (1/52)/(4/52) = 1/4</span>

A train traveled 325 miles in 5hrs. What was the trains average rate of speed in miles per hr ?
Leya [2.2K]

Hi there!

To find the average speed of a moving object all you need to do is divide the distance traveled by the object by amount of time it took the object to reach its final destination. So for this problem it would go like this:

325 ÷ 5 = 65

So for this problem in particular the answer is 65 MPH was the average speed of the train.

the ratio of men to women working for a company is 4 to 7. If there are 286 employees total, how many men work for the company?
patriot [66]

Answer:  104 men work for the company

Step-by-step explanation:

    man = 4            x

woman = 7--------- you don't need these so i cross it out.

------------------------

    total = 11         286  

so you get 1144 - 11x

then divide 1144 by 11 and you get x = 104

The frequency table shows how many visits to the library students in a school have made in the last month.
vfiekz [6]
<h3>Answer:  2.8</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

Multiply each visit count with their corresponding frequency.

Examples:

  • 0*12 = 0 for the first row.
  • 1*366 = 366 for the second row
  • 2*53 = 106 for the third row

and so on...

I recommend making a third column like this

\begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \cline{1-3}\text{Visits} & \text{Frequency} & \text{Visits*Frequency}\\\cline{1-3}0 & 12 & 0\\\cline{1-3}1 & 366 & 366\\\cline{1-3}2 & 53 & 106\\\cline{1-3}3 & 52 & 156\\\cline{1-3}4 & 155 & 620\\\cline{1-3}5 & 243 & 1215\\\cline{1-3}\end{array}

That way you can keep track of all the results in an organized way.

Then add everything in the third column

0+366+106+156+620+1215 = 2463

Divide this sum over the total frequency (12+366+53+52+155+243 = 881) and we'll get the mean

2463/881 = 2.7956867

Rounding to one decimal place gets us to 2.8 as the final answer.

-------------

The much longer way to do this is to imagine 12 copies of "0", 366 copies of "1", 53 copies of "2", and so on. We'll have an extremely large data set of 881 items inside it. As you can see, this second method is definitely not recommended to actually carry out. Rather it's helpful to have this as a thought experiment to see why we revert to multiplication instead.

Eg: Imagine adding 155 copies of "4". A shortcut is to simply say 4*155 = 620
