Answer:

a) 0.32

b) 0.68

c) office or den

Step-by-step explanation:

Locations             Probabilities

Adult bedroom    0.03

Child bedroom    0.15

Other bedroom   0.14

Office or den       0.40

Other rooms        0.28

a)

P(PC in bedroom)= P(PC in adult bedroom)+ P(PC in child bedroom)+ P(PC in other bedroom)

P(PC in bedroom)= 0.03+0.15+ 0.14

P(PC in bedroom)= 0.32.

Thus, the probability that a PC is in a bedroom is 0.32.

b)

P(PC is not in bedroom)= P(PC in Office or den)+ P(PC in Other rooms)

P(PC is not in bedroom)= 0.40+0.28

P(PC is not in bedroom)= 0.68.

Thus, the probability that a PC is not in a bedroom is 0.68.

c)

When a household is selected at random from households with a PC we would expect to find a PC in a room which has a greater probability of having PC.

The greater probability of room having a PC is of Office or den room with probability 0.40. So, when a household is selected at random from households with a PC we would expect to find a PC in a Office or den room.

For a recent year, the rate of first-class postage is as follows:
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

$0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that weight of the function = x

Given that cost of the postage for mail having weight less than or equal to 1 oz = $0.44

then to find the equation can be written as

C(x)=0.44  where 0<x<=1

Similarly we can write equation for other parts

C(x)=0.61  where 1<x<=2

C(x)=0.78  where 2<x<=3

C(x)=0.95  where 3<x<=3.5

Now we can write them together as piecewise function as shown in below:

C(x)=\left\{\begin{matrix}0.44 & 0

to graph that we just draw horizontal lines for each as none equation contains x on the right side .

3.48 oz is less that 3.5 so we will use $0.95.
