Suppose you have the following information. 12% of all drivers do not have a valid driver’s license, 6% of all drivers have no i

nsurance, and 4% have neither (i.e., do not have driver’s license and do not have insurance). The probability that a randomly selected driver either fails to have a valid license or fails to have insurance is about
(a) 0.18

(b) 0.2

(c) 0.22

(d) 0.072

(e) 0.14

Answer:

e) 0.14

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this problem building the Venn's diagram of these probabilities.

I am going to say that:

A is the probability that a driver does not have a valid driver's license.

B is the probability that a driver does not have insurance.

We have that:

A = a + (A \cap B)

In which a is the probability that a driver does not have a valid driver's license but has insurance and A \cap B is the probability that a driver does not have any of these things.

By the same logic, we have that:

B = b + (A \cap B)

We start finding these values from the intersection.

4% have neither

This means that (A \cap B) = 0.04

6% of all drivers have no insurance

This means that B = 0.06. So

B = b + (A \cap B)

0.06 = b + 0.04

b = 0.02

12% of all drivers do not have a valid driver’s license

This means that A = 0.12

So

A = a + (A \cap B)

0.12 = a + 0.04

a = 0.08

The probability that a randomly selected driver either fails to have a valid license or fails to have insurance is about

P = a + b + (A \cap B) = 0.08 + 0.02 + 0.04 = 0.14

So the correct answer is:

e) 0.14

An account grows at an annual interest rate of r⁡​ ⁣, so it grows by a factor of x=1+r⁡​ ⁣⁣ ​⁡ each year. The function A(x)=800x
Paladinen [302]

Given:

Annual interest rate = r⁡​%

Growth factor : x = 1 + r⁡​

The below function gives the amount in the account after 4 years when the growth factor is x⁡​ ⁣⁣.

A(x)=800x^4+350x^3+500x^2+600x

To find:

The total amount in the account if the interest rate for the account is 3% each year and initial amount.

Solution:

Rate of interest = 3% = 0.03

Growth factor : x = 1 + ⁡0.03 = 1.03

We have,

A(x)=800x^4+350x^3+500x^2+600x

Substitute x=1.03 in the given function, to find the total amount in the account if the interest rate for the account is 3% each year.

A(1.03)=800(1.03)^4+350(1.03)^3+500(1.03)^2+600(1.03)

A(1.03)=800(1.12550881)+350(1.092727)+500(1.0609
)+618

A(1.03)=900.407048+382.45445+530.45+618

A(1.03)=2431.311498


A(1.03)\approx 2431.31


Therefore, the total amount in the account is 2431.31 if the interest rate for the account is 3% each year.

For initial amount the rate of interest is 0.

Growth factor : x = 1 + ⁡0 = 1

Substitute x=0 in the given function to find the initial amount.

A(1)=800(1)^4+350(1)^3+500(1)^2+600(1)

A(1)=800+350+500+600

A(1)=2250

Therefore, 2250 was put into the account at the beginning.
