Answer:

0.362

Step-by-step explanation:

When drawing randomly from the 1st and 2nd urn, 4 case scenarios may happen:

- Red ball is drawn from the 1st urn with a probability of 9/10, red ball is drawn from the 2st urn with a probability of 1/6. The probability of this case to happen is (9/10)*(1/6) = 9/60 = 3/20 or 0.15. The probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue given this scenario is (1 blue + 5 blue)/(8 red + 1 blue + 5 blue) = 6/14 = 3/7.

- Red ball is drawn from the 1st urn with a probability of 9/10, blue ball is drawn from the 2nd urn with a probability of 5/6. The probability of this event to happen is (9/10)*(5/6) = 45/60 = 3/4 or 0.75. The probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue given this scenario is (1 blue + 4 blue)/(8 red + 1 blue + 1 red + 4 blue) = 5/14

- Blue ball is drawn from the 1st urn with a probability of 1/10, blue ball is drawn from the 2nd urn with a probability of 5/6. The probability of this event to happen is (1/10)*(5/6) = 5/60 = 1/12. The probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue given this scenario is (4 blue)/(9 red + 1 red + 4 blue) = 4/14 = 2/7

- Blue ball is drawn from the 1st urn with a probability of 1/10, red ball is drawn from the 2st urn with a probability of 1/6. The probability of this event to happen is (1/10)*(1/6) = 1/60. The probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue given this scenario is (5 blue)/(9 red + 5 blue) = 5/14.

Overall, the total probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue is the sum of product of each scenario to happen with their respective given probability

P = 0.15(3/7) + 0.75(5/14) + (1/12)*(2/7) + (1/60)*(5/14) = 0.362

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

<em>Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question</em>

answer : There is not convincing statistical evidence to suggest that the proportion of customers who order dessert at each restaurant is not the same based on family classification. ( E )

Step-by-step explanation:

To arrive at this conclusion we will determine the Null and alternate hypothesis

<em>H0 : Number that orders dessert is same based on family classification given</em>

<em>Ha : Number that orders dessert is not the same based on family classification given </em>

from the question the p-value of Chi-square test is 0.092 > 0.05 hence we will fail to reject the null hypothesis. therefore we can conclude that

There is not convincing statistical evidence to suggest that the proportion of customers who order dessert at each restaurant is not the same based on family classification

Find y for x=0,1,2, and 3.<br><br> y=4-x
LenKa [72]
4 - (0) = y
4 - 0 = 4      y = 4

4 - (1) = y
4 - 1 = 3     y = 3

4 - (2) = y
4 - 2 = 2     y = 2

4 - (3) = y
4 - 3 = 1     y = 1

45° + x = 180° <em>[</em><em>Linear</em><em> </em><em>pair</em><em>]</em>

=> x = 180° - 45°

=> <em><u>x = 135° (Ans)</u></em>
