At a restaurant, 80 percent of the diners are new customers P(N)=0.8, while 20 percent are regular customers P(N’)=0.2. And, 50

percent of the new customers pay by credit card P(C|N)=0.5, in contrast, 70 percent of the regular customers make payments by credit card P(C|N’)=0.7. What is the probability that a customer is new if he/she pays by credit card, P(N|C)? Select one:
a. 0.5400
b. 0.5000
c. 0.7407
d. 0.8000

Answer:

c. 0.7404

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use Bayes Formula,

P(N|C) = \frac{P(C|N)*P(N)}{P(C)}

We know every single value of that expression except P(C). We can calculate C by dividing into 2 cases: if the customer is new or not.

By the total probability theorem, we  know that P(C) = P(C|N)*P(N) + P(C|N')*P(N') = 0.5*0.8 + 0.7*0.2 = 0.4+0.14 = 0.54

We replace P(C) on the equation above and we obtain

P(N|C) = \frac{P(C|N)*P(N)}{P(C)} = \frac{0.5*0.8}{0.54} = 0.7407

Thus, P(N|C) = 0.7407. Answer c is correct

I hope this helped you!

Quadrilateral DEFG has vertices D(−2,4) , E(4,7) , F(10,3) , and G(8,0) .
fredd [130]

A rotation 270° counterclockwise about the origin is the same as rotation 90° clockwise about the origin and has a rule:

(x,y)→(y,-x).

Then:

  • D(−2,4)→D'(4,2)
  • E(4,7)→E'(7,-4)
  • F(10,3)→F'(3,-10)
  • G(8,0)→G'(0,-8)

Answer: the coordinates of vertices of quadrilateral D′E′F′G′ are D'(4,2), E'(7,-4), F'(3,-10), G'(0,-8).

Alika [10]

Answer:

6=2+2+2

Step-by-step explanation:

-In mathematics, a quaint number is a number that can be written as the sum of two or more  prime numbers.

-The multiple divisors of 6 in a factor tree are 2,2 and 2

-6 can thus be written as 2+2+2:

6=2+2+2

-Hence 6 is a quaint number
