slega [8]

Answer:

a) 0.0002

b) 0.0057

c) 0.0364

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start by stating the probabilities of a person belonging to each policy:

Standard: 0.3

Preferred: 0.5

Ultra- Preferred: 0.2

The probability of person belonging to each policy AND dying in the next year:

Standard: 0.3 x 0.015 = 0.0045

Preferred: 0.5 x 0.002 = 0.001

Ultra- Preferred: 0.2 x 0.001 = 0.0002

a) The probability a ultra - preferred policy holder dies in the next year is 0.001. To find the probability of a person being both a ultra - preferred policy holder AND die in the next year is: 0.001 x 0.2= 0.0002

b) The probability is given by adding the probabilities calculated before :

0.0045 + 0.001 + 0.0002 = 0.0057

c) We use the results above again. This is 0.0002 / (0.001 + 0.0045). The answer comes out to be 0.0364

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Below!

Step-by step explanation:

We know that:

400 + 850 + m = 1500

Solution of Question A:

Percent of children: Total children/Total attendance

=> 400/1500
=> 4/15
=> 0.27 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
=> 0.27 x 100
=> 27%

Hence, the percent of children is about 27%.

Solution of Question B:

Percent of women: Total women/Total attendance

=> 850/1500
=> 85/150
=> 17/30
=> 17/30 x 100
=> 17/3 x 10
=> 170/3
=> 56.67%

Hence, the percent of women is 56.67%.

Solution of Question C:

400 + 850 + m = 1500
=> 1250 + m = 1500
=> m = 1500 - 1250
=> m = 250

Percent of men: Total men/Total attendance

=> 250/1500
=> 1/6
=> 0.17 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
=> 0.17 x 100
=> 17%

Hence, the percent of men is about 17%

Hoped this helped.

7/100 = 0.07

0.07 * 12.5 = 0.88

20/100 = 0.2

0.2 * 12.5 = 2.5

2.5 + 0.88 = 3.38

3.38 + 12.50 = 15.88

You spend a total of $15.88.
