Answer: P(A and B) is greater than P(A)
P(A and B) should be smaller than P(A).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : P(A and B) = 0.40
P(A) = 0.20
Using the given formula of the conditional probability will be

But we know that the probability of any event cannot be more than 1.
Also, the probability of the intersection must be less than the probability of individual event.
Thus , in the given question P(A and B) must be smaller than P(A).

<span>The probability that a house in an urban area will develop a leak is 55%. if 20 houses are randomly selected, what is the probability that none of the houses will develop a leak? round to the nearest thousandth.
Use binomial distribution, since probability of developing a leak, p=0.55 is assumed constant, and
n=20, x=0
and assuming leaks are developed independently between houses,
P(X=x)
=C(n,0)p^x* (1-p)^(n-x)
=C(20,0)0.55^0 * (0.45^20)
=1*1*0.45^20
=1.159*10^(-7)
=0.000

Simple, 3 goes in to 9, 3 times. That would mean that to find the number of cherries, multiply 240 by 3. Greg needs 720 cherries for 9 perfect cherry pies.
