A hair salon completed a survey of 367 customers about satisfaction with service(Dissatisfied, Neutral, Satisfied, or Very Satis

mamaluj [8]

The results of the survey are shown in the table.

It's required to calculate the following probabilities:

a) A customer is neutral

The row labeled as 'Neutral' has a total of 79 customers out of 367 in total.

The required probability is:

$p=\frac{79}{367}$

b) A customer is a walk-in

The first column labeled as 'Walk-in' has a total of 106 customers out of 367. The required probability is

$p=\frac{106}{367}$

c) A customer is dissatisfied and a walk-in.

We have to cross the row Dissatisfied with the column Walk-in. The number of customers that have both categories is 22 out of 367.

The required probability is:

$p=\frac{22}{367}$

d) A customer is very satisfied given he saw a TV ad.

This is a conditional probability, where the total is 111 because is the given condition. The customers that have both characteristics are 33, thus the required probability is:

$p=\frac{33}{111}=\frac{11}{37}$

e) A customer is satisfied or referred.

Total satisfied = 139

Total referred = 150

With both features = 62

Total customers with one or both features: 139 + 150 - 62 = 227

We have to subtract the common feature because it was counted twice.

The required probability is:

$p=\frac{227}{367}$

It is assumed that the test results for a class follow a normal distribution with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 36. I

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

0.7143

- You know the minimum possible grade of the student

- You want to find out the probability that that grade which is greater than 72 is also greater than 84

- Expect the answer to be 0.7143

- The explanation/steps is given below

- The answer seems (and is) reasonable. You only created a new lower limit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribution Type: Normal

Mean: 78

Standard deviation: 36

Range of marks: [78 - 36], [78 + 36] = [42 to 114]

If you know that a student's grade is greater than 72, what is the probability that it's greater than 84?

In this case, the full probability level is between 72 and the upper limit of 114 (instead of between 42 and 114). First, find the fraction of this probability.

[114 - 72] ÷ [114 - 42] = 42/72 = 0.5833

So, the probability of a student's mark falling between 72 and 114 is 0.5833.

Now making this a whole interval, 114 - 72 = 42

What fraction of this interval of 42 will bear marks between 84 and 114?

[114 - 84] = 30

30/42 = 0.7143

Because of the first part of the question "If you know (are sure) that a student's grade is greater than 72...", your answer stops at 0.7143, since 72 was used as the lower limit.
