45/60 simplifies to 3/4, so the answer is C. 3 fourths.
Answer:
0.79 ; 0.753
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Students who have spent at least five hours studying GMAT review guides have a probability of 0.85 of scoring above 400 :
≥ 5 hours review = 0.85
Students who do not spend at least five hours reviewing have a probability of 0.65 of scoring above 400
< 5 hours = 0.65
70% (0.7) of business students spend atleast 5 hours review time
A.) probability of scoring above 400
(Proportion who spend atleast 5 hours review time * 0.85) + (Proportion who do not spend atleast 5 hours * 0.65)
Proportion who do not spend atleast 5 hours = (1 - proportion who spend atleast 5 hours) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3
Hence,
P(scoring above 400) = (0.7 * 0.85) + (0.3 * 0.65) = 0.595 + 0.195
= 0.79
B.) probability that given a student scored above 400, he/she spent at least five hours reviewing for the test.
P(spent ≥5 hours review | score above 400) :
P(spent ≥5 hours review) / P(score > 400)
(0.7 * 0.85) / 0.79
0.595 / 0.79
= 0.753

Answer:
1. True
2. False.
3. True.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The total area within any continuous probability distribution is equal to 1.00: it is true because the maximum probability (value) is one (1), therefore, the total (maximum) area is also one (1).
<em>Hence, for continuous probability distribution: probability = area</em>.
2. For any continuous probability distribution, the probability, P(x), of any value of the random variable, X, can be computed: False because it has an infinite number of possible values, which can not be counted or uncountable.
<em>Hence, it cannot be computed. </em>
3. For any discrete probability distribution, the probability, P(x), of any value of the random variable, X, can be computed: True because it has a finite number of possible values, which are countable or can be counted.
<em>Hence, it can be computed. </em>
