Answer:

0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for conditional probability.

P(B|A) = P(A&B)/P(A) = 0.20/0.50 = 0.4

Answer:  P(B/A) = 0.40.

Step-by-step explanation:  For any two events A and B, given that

P(A)=0.50,~~P(B)=0.80,~~P(A\cap B)=0.20.

We are to find the conditional probability of happening of event B given event A has already happened.

That is,

P(B/A)=?

From the formula for conditional probability, we have

P(B/A)=\dfrac{P(B\cap A)}{P(A)}\\\\\\\Rightarrow P(B/A)=\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}\\\\\\\Rightarrow P(B/A)=\dfrac{0.20}{0.50}\\\\\\\Rightarrow P(B/A)=0.40.

Thus, P(B/A) = 0.40.

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

N:S:G

6:2:1

Nick gets 30 more sweets than Gavyn, therefore we can say that.

6x=x+30\\5x=30\\x=6

As Sarah gets twice the amount of sweets that Gavyn does.

2(6)=12
