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

Answer:

option a) 30 : 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = 7 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{15}{2}\\\\Width = 4\frac{3}{4} = \frac{19}{4}

<em><u>Ratio of length to width:</u></em>

      \frac{15}{2} : \frac{19}{4}<em><u></u></em>

    =\frac{\frac{15}{2}}{\frac{19}{4}}\\\\=\frac{15}{2 } \times \frac{4}{19}\\\\=15\times \frac{2}{19}\\\\=\frac{30}{19}\\\\30 : 19

The chart shows rate of decay.

Years of decay...

It takes around 4 years for something to go through their half life (depending on the thing). This chart is showing the years go by (half lives that occur within the years) while the decaying is happening.
