There are 20 skirts in total and five of them are yellow.
The probability that she will pick a yellow skirt is 5/20 (simplifies to 1/4)
Multiply this by the probability that the coin will land on tails 1/2
1/4 x 1/2 =
1/8
Maria has a 1/8 chance that she will pick a yellow skirt AND land the coin on tails.

Find the values of x and y. Show your work.
san4es73 [151]
Use proportions:

(7x-4)/31 = (4y+8)/24 = (y+2)/6

Multiply:

6*(7x-4) = 31*(y+2)---> 42x-24 = 31y+62 ---> 11y = 86, y = 86/11

I don;t like that is looks 'ugly', instead of sth like y = 88/11=8. I think 86/11 is the answer. Check the math! :)

Lina20 [59]

Answer: 0.74

Step-by-step explanation:

A= "The person is sick "

B= "The test gives a positive result"

P(A)=0.03

P(B|A)=0.92

P(B|A')=0.01

P(A')=1-P(A)=1-0.03=0.97

P(B)=P(B|A)P(A)+P(B|A')P(A')=0.92*0.03+0.01*0.97=0.0373

Based in Bayes Rule

P(A|B)=P(B|A)P(A)/P(B)=0.92*0.03/0.0373=0.74
