Remember that, for independent events, the probability that both occurr is the product of the individual probabilities.
a) Probability of being contacted: 78% = 0.78
Probaility of refusing: 1 - 22% = 1 -0.22 = 0.78
Combined probability: 0.78*0.78 = 0.6084
b) The probability of failing to contact or making contact and not geeting them to agree 1 - the probability of contacting and getting them to agree.
The probabilityof contacting and getting them to agree is 0.78*0.22 = 0.1716
The the answer to this question is 1 - 0.1716 = 0.8284
Answer: 644cents
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we were told that
1 pound = $1.79
Miguel bought 3.6 pounds of oranges. This will cost
$1.79 x 3.6 = $6.444
Recall:
$1 = 100cents.
Therefore, $6.444 = 6.444 x 100 = 644.4cents = 644cents. To the nearest cent
1) distribute 2 to each term within the parentheses
2) combining like terms ( which means subtract a 6-2)
3) subtract 4 from both sides of the equation
4) divide both sides of the equation by 4
Final answer should be ( x = 1/4 )
