Answer:

p =\frac{25}{40+20+25+15}= \frac{25}{100}= 0.25

So then the probability for this case would be 0.25 or 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have 40 black , 20 yellow, 25 orange, and 15 purple wristbands

And we want to find the probability that Melanie will select an orange wristband so we can use the definition of probability:

p =\frac{successes}{total}

And replacing we got:

p =\frac{25}{40+20+25+15}= \frac{25}{100}= 0.25

So then the probability for this case would be 0.25 or 25%

In a certain town in the united states, 40% of the population are democrats and 60% are republicans. The municipal government ha
mixer [17]

Answer:

(a) 0.48, (b) 0.625, (c) 0.1923

Step-by-step explanation:

First define

Probability a person is a democrat: P(D) = 0.4

Probability a person is a republican: P(R) = 0.6

Probability a person support the measure given that the person is a democrat: P(SM | D) = 0.75

Probability a person support the measure given that the person is a republican: P(SM | R) = 0.3

Now for the Theorem of total probabilities we have

(a) P(SM) = P(SM | D)P(D)+P(SM | R)P(R) = (0.75)(0.4)+(0.3)(0.6) = 0.48

and for the Bayes' Formula we have

(b) P(D | SM) = P(SM | D)P(D)/[P(SM | D)P(D)+P(SM | R)P(R)] = (0.75)(0.4)/0.48 = 0.625

Now let SMc be the complement of support the measure, i.e.,

P(SMc | D) = 0.25 : Probability a person does not support the measure given that the person is a democrat

P(SMc | R) = 0.7: Probability a person does not support the measure given that the person is a republican,

and also for the Bayes' Formula we have

(c) P(D | SMc) = P(SMc | D)P(D)/[P(SMc | D)P(D)+P(SMc | R)P(R)] = (0.25)(0.4)/[(0.25)(0.4)+(0.7)(0.6)] = 0.1/(0.52)=0.1923
