Find P (Junior|Girl) Hint: P(A and B)

Mathematics

<h3>Answer:  1/6</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

There are two methods to approach this type of problem.

-------------------------------------

Method 1

A = junior

B = girl

P(A) = probability of selecting a junior

P(B) = probability of selecting a girl

P(B) = (number of girls)/(number total)

P(B) = (4+7+3+4)/(4+4+5+7+2+3+1+4)

P(B) = 18/30

P(B) = 9/15

P(A and B) = probability of selecting a girl who is a junior

P(A and B) = (number of girl juniors)/(number total)

P(A and B) = 3/30

P(A and B) = 1/10

P(A given B) = P(A and B)/P(B)

P(A given B) = (1/10) divided by (9/15)

P(A given B) = (1/10) times (15/9)

P(A given B) = (1*15)/(10*9)

P(A given B) = 15/90

P(A given B) = 1/6

-------------------------------------

Method 2

This method doesn't involve dividing two fractions which could get messy, which is why I find this the easier route. Since we are given the person is a girl, this means we only need to focus on the "girls" column. There are 3 who are juniors out of 4+7+3+4 = 18 total. The probability of selecting a girl junior is 3/18 = 1/6

What is the value of the 11th term in the following geometric sequence? -5, -10, -20, -40
yaroslaw [1]

You are multiplying 2 to each term each time.

-40 is the 4th term

-40 x 2 = -80

-80 x 2 = - 160

-160 x 2 = -320

-320 x 2 = -640

-640 x 2 = -1280

-1280 x 2 = -2560

-2560 x 2 = -5120

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-5120 is your 11th term.
