                                          beef used for 1 taco

number of tacos 8 1/3  = making improper fractions
number of tacos 25/3=9/5 = 15
she can make 15 tacos

umka21 [38]

Answer:

a) P(Current year and last year)=0.15x0.09=0.0135=1.35\%

b) P(Last year U Current year)=0.09+0.08-0.0135=0.1565=15.65\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional probability is the probability of one event occurring with some relationship to one or more other events.

The total probability rule (or the Law of Total Probability) breaks up probability calculations into distinct parts. P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B)

The general multiplication rule formula is: P(A ∩ B) = P(A) P(B|A)=P(B)P(A|B)

We have the following probabilities:

P(Lastyear)=0.09=9\%

P(Currentyear)=0.08=8\%

P(Currentyear | Lastyear)=0.15=15\%

Part a

We can use this multiplication rule:

P(A and B)=P(B|A)(A)=P(A|B)P(B)

For this part we want this probability:

P(Current year and last year)=P(Current year|Last year)P(Last year)

And if we replace we got:

P(Current year and last year)=0.15x0.09=0.0135=1.35\%

Part b

For this part we want the probability of one event in last year OR one event on the current year, so we can use the probability addition of events:

P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B)

And for our case we have:

P(Last year U Current year) = P(Last year)+P(Current year)-P(Last year and Current year)

P(Last year U Current year)=0.09+0.08-0.0135=0.1565=15.65\%

Answer:

\frac{189}{100}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the decimal number 1.89, we are required to convert to fraction

Step 1: write the decimal number given divided by 1

\frac{1.89}{1}

Step 2: multiply both the up and down by 10 for every number you have after the decimal point

We have 2 numbers (8 and 9) after the decimal point. This means we would multiply both the up and down by 100.

Thus,

\frac{1.89*100}{1*100}

\frac{189}{100}

Converting 1.89 to fraction would give us:

\frac{189}{100}
