Complete Question

Calculating conditional probability

The usher at a wedding asked each of the 80 guests whether they were a friend of the bride or of the groom.

Here are the results:

Bride :29

Groom :30

BOTH : 20

Given that a randomly selected guest is a friend of the groom, find the probability they are a friend of the bride.

P (bride | groom)​

Answer:

The probability is P(B|G) = \frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size is n =  80

The friend of the groom are G = 30

 The friend of the groom are B  = 29

 The friend of both bride and groom are Z = 20

The probability that a guest is a friend of the bride is mathematically represented as

      P(B) =  \frac{29}{80}

The probability that a guest is a friend of the groom is mathematically represented as

       P(G) =  \frac{30}{80}

The probability that a guest is both a friend of the bride and a friend of the groom is mathematically represented as

       P(B \ n  \ G) = \frac{20}{80}

Now

    P(B|G) is mathematically represented as

     P(B|G) = \frac{P(B \ n \ G)}{P(G)}

     Substituting values

       P(B|G) = \frac{\frac{20}{80} }{\frac{30}{80} }

      P(B|G) = \frac{2}{3}

Neko [114]

Answer:

C. populations are non normal and the sample sizes are large.

Step-by-step explanation:

To test hypotheses about the difference between two populations means we deal with the following three cases.

1) both the populations are normal with known standard deviations.

2)both the populations are normal with unknown standard deviations.

3) both the populations are non normal in which case both the  sample sizes are necessarily large.

So option C is the correct answer.

A projectile is launched from ground level with a initial velocity of Vo feet per second. Neglecting air resistance, its height
antiseptic1488 [7]
The height at t seconds after launch is
s(t) = - 16t² + V₀t
where V₀ = initial launch velocity.

Part a:
When s = 192 ft, and V₀ = 112 ft/s, then
-16t² + 112t = 192
16t² - 112t + 192 = 0
t² - 7t + 12 = 0
(t - 3)(t - 4) = 0
t = 3 s, or t = 4 s

The projectile reaches a height of  192 ft at 3 s on the way up, and at 4 s on the way down.

Part b:
When the projectile reaches the ground, s = 0.
Therefore
-16t² + 112t = 0
-16t(t - 7) = 0
t = 0 or t = 7 s

When t=0, the projectile is launched.
When t = 7 s, the projectile returns to the ground.

Answer: 7 s

timama [110]

Answer:

$7120 or $7565 is the minimum average premium they should charge per policy holder

Step-by-step explanation:

Small business can charge 80-85% of the total value of the policy as premium.

In this case the spending per policy holder is $8900

Hence, per policy holder has to pay a premium of

80-85% of $8900

$7120 or $7565 is the minimum average premium they should charge per policy holder
