Answer:
0.665
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 100 people are split into two groups 70 and 30. I group is given cough syrup treatment but second group did not.
Prob for a person to be in the cough medication group = 0.70
Out of people who received medication, 34% did not have cough
Prob for a person to be in cough medication and did not have cough
=
Prob for a person to be not in cough medication and did not have cough
=
Probability for a person not to have cough
= P(M1C')+P(M2C')
where M1 = event of having medication and M2 = not having medication and C' not having cough
This is because M1 and M2 are mutually exclusive and exhaustive
SO P(C') = 0.397+0.2=0.597
Hence required prob =P(M1/C') =
L = hours used by the Lopez's sprinkler
R = hours used by the Russell's sprinkler
so, we know the Lopez's sprinkler uses 15 Liters per hour, so say after 1 hour it has used 15(1), after 2 hours it has used 15(2), after 3 hours it has used 15(3) liters and after L hours it has used then 15(L) or 15L.
likewise, the Russell's sprinkler, after R hours it has used 40R, since it uses 40 Liters per hour.
we know that both sprinklers combined went on and on for 45 hours, therefore whatever L and R are, L + R = 45.
we also know that the output on those 45 hours was 1050 Liters, therefore, we know that 15L + 40R = 1050.
how long was the Lopez's on for? well, L = 45 - R.
