Answer:

a) P(C∩T) = 0.05

b) P(C) = 0.55

c) P(C) + P(T) = 0.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

60% of the customers require an oil change

20% require tire rotation

75% of customers require at least one of these services.

So,

Let C represent customers that requires oil change and

T represent customers that requires tire rotation.

P(C) + P(C∩T) = 60% = 0.6 .......1

P(T) + P(C∩T) = 20% = 0.2. .......2

P(C) + P(T) + P(C∩T) = 75% = 0.75 .....3

a) the probability that the customer needs both services P(C∩T).

From eqn 1 , 2 , 3 above.

P(C∩T) = eqn 1 + eqn 2 - eqn 3

P(C∩T) = 0.60 + 0.20 - 0.75

P(C∩T) = 0.05 or 5%

b) from eqn 1:

P(C) = 0.60 - P(C∩T)

P(C) = 0.60 - 0.05

P(C) = 0.55 or 55%

c) the probability that a customer will want exactly one of the two services P(C) + P(T).

Adding eqn 1 and 2 we have;

P(C) + P(T) + 2 P(C∩T) = 0.60 +0.20

P(C) + P(T) = 0.80 - 2P(C∩T)

P(C) + P(T) = 0.80 -2(0.05) = 0.70 or 70%

Answer:

a. 5%

b. 55%

c. 70%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The probability of customer wanting both services (P(O&T)) is:

P(O)+P(T)+P(O\&T) = 0.75\\P(O)+P(O\&T) =0.60\\P(T)+P(O\&T) = 0.20\\P(O)+P(T)+P(O\&T) -[P(O)+P(T)+2P(O\&T)]=0.75 -(0.60-0.20)\\P(O\&T)=0.05=5\%

The probability is 5%

b. The probability that the customer will need an oil change, but not a tire rotation (P(O)) is :

P(O)+P(O\&T) = 0.60\\P(O\&T) = 0.05\\P(O) =0.60-0.05 = 0.55 = 55\%

The probability is 55%

c. The probability that the customer will want exactly one of these two services (P(O)+P(T)) is:

P(O)+P(T)+P(O\&T) = 0.75\\P(O\&T) = 0.05\\P(O)+P(T) =0.75-0.05 = 0.70 = 70\%

The probability is 70%

Lelu [443]

Answer:

1) 36

2) 190

3) 72 units

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  2x4 = 8 units area for rectangle

(4-2) x4 /2 = 4 units

6 x 4 = 24 units

8 + 4 + 24 = 36

2) 3 x 10 / 2 = 15 units

   5 x 10 /2 = 25 units

   15 x 10 = 150 units

   150 + 25 + 15 = 190 units

3) 6 x 3 / 2 = 9 units

   6 x 9 = 54 units

   6 x 3 / 2 = 9 units

9 + 9 + 54 = 18 + 54 = 72 units
