Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

P(f ) = probability of being female = .3

P(m ) Probability of being male = .7

P(s/m) =  probability  of having a smoker worker given that he is a male = .6

P(s/f) =  probability  of having a smoker worker given that he is a male = .4

p(s) = p(m) x p(s/m) + p(f) x P(s/f)

= .7 x .6 + .4 x .3

= .42 + .12

= .54

b )

p (m/s) =  probability that this person will be a male,Given that this person is a smoker

p(m) x p(s/m) /  [ p(m) x p(s/m) + p(f) x P(s/f) ]

= .7 x .6 / .7 x .6 + .4 x .3

= .42 / .54

= .78

c )

Probability of the person being a smoker and male

= .54 x .78 = .42

probability of a person being a male and non smoker = .7 - .42 = .28

probability of a person being a non smoker and female = .46 -.28 =.18

probability that  person will be a smoker or a male

= 1 - (a person being a non smoker and female).  

= 1 - .18

= .82 .

A coin is tossed then a number 1-10 is chosen at random what is the probability of getting heads then a number less than 4
Darya [45]
The probability of getting heads on a coin toss is 0.5
The probability of choosing a number <u>less</u> than four is 3/10 (1,2,3)

Therefore, the probability of getting heads <u>and</u> choosing a number less than four is:
=  \frac{1}{2} (\frac{3}{10}) = \frac{3}{20} = 0.15
