Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected customer orders a pizza or a salad is 80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call

P_p = the proability of someone asking for a pizza

P_s = the probability that a customer orders a salad

Pp∩s = the probability that a customer orders a pizza and a salad.

We know from the statement of the problem that:

P_p = 70% = 0.7

P_s = 25% = 0.25

Pp∩s = 15% = 0.15

We want to know the probability that a randomly selected customer will order a pizza or a salad. Then, by set theory, that probability is calculated as:

Pp∪s = P_p ∪ P_s - Pp∩s

So:

Pp∪s = Pp + Ps - Pp∩s

 Where Pp∪e is the probability that the customer orders a pizza or a salad, but not both at the same time.

Pp∪e = 0.7 + 0.25 -0.15

Pp∪e = 0.8

Finally, the probability that a randomly selected customer orders a pizza or a salad is 80%

HELP ASAP Use the data below
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Part A:

   -Minimum: 10

   -Q1: 17.5

   -Median: 30

   -Q3: 42.5

   -Maximum: 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Part B: IQR= 25

This shows that the data varies for 25 different numbers. That HALF of the data is between 25 numbers.

Part C: Using a box-and-whisker plot you can interpret the different values. Minimum is the first dot (10), connected to the first line (Q1 which is 17.5), connected by a box to the median (30), connected by a box to the third line (Q3 which is 42.5), connected to the last dot which is the maximum (50). And IQR is Q3-Q1, so 42.5-17.5 which is 25.
