Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 12 from both sides:

3x + 12 (-12) = -12 (-12)

3x = -12 - 12

3x = -24

Next, divide 3 from both sides:

(3x)/3 = (-24)/3

x = -24/3

x = -8

x = -8 is your answer.

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

a) P(male=blue or female=blue) = 0.71

b) P(female=blue | male=blue) = 0.68

c) P(female=blue | male=brown) = 0.35

d) P(female=blue | male=green) = 0.31

e) We can conclude that the eye colors of male respondents and their partners are not independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given following information about eye colors of 204 Scandinavian men and their female partners.

Blue Brown Green Total

Blue 78 23 13 114

Brown 19 23 12 54

Green 11 9 16 36

Total 108 55 41 204

a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen male respondent or his partner has blue eyes?

Using the addition rule of probability,

∵ P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

For the given case,

P(male=blue or female=blue) = P(male=blue) + P(female=blue) - P(male=blue and female=blue)

P(male=blue or female=blue) = 114/204 + 108/204 − 78/204

P(male=blue or female=blue) = 0.71

b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen male respondent with blue eyes has a partner with blue eyes?

As per the rule of conditional probability,

P(female=blue | male=blue) = 78/114

P(female=blue | male=blue) = 0.68

c) What is the probability that a randomly chosen male respondent with brown eyes has a partner with blue eyes?

As per the rule of conditional probability,

P(female=blue | male=brown) = 19/54

P(female=blue | male=brown) = 0.35

d) What is the probability of a randomly chosen male respondent with green eyes having a partner with blue eyes?

As per the rule of conditional probability,

P(female=blue | male=green) = 11/36

P(female=blue | male=green) = 0.31

e) Does it appear that the eye colors of male respondents and their partners are independent? Explain

If the following relation holds true then we can conclude that the eye colors of male respondents and their partners are independent.

∵ P(B | A) = P(B)

P(female=blue | male=brown) = P(female=blue)

or alternatively, you can also test

P(female=blue | male=green) = P(female=blue)

P(female=blue | male=blue) = P(female=blue)

But

P(female=blue | male=brown) ≠ P(female=blue)

19/54 ≠ 108/204

0.35 ≠ 0.53

Therefore, we can conclude that the eye colors of male respondents and their partners are not independent.

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week is;

D. 8/10 = 80%

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The frequency with which Ginger buys launch = Everyday

The percentage of the time the cafeteria has pizza out = 80%

The outcome of 0 and 1 = No pizza available

The outcome of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 = Pizza available

Therefore, we have the;

Group number ${}$ Percentage of time pizza available

1 ${}$ 80%

2 ${}$ 80%

3 ${}$ 80%

4 ${}$ 80%

5 ${}$ 40%

6 ${}$ 100%

7 ${}$ 80%

8 ${}$ 100%

9 ${}$ 80%

10 ${}$ 80%

Therefore, the sum of the percentages outcome the days Ginger eats pizza = 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.4 + 1 + 0.8 + 1 + 0.8 + 0.8 = 8

The number of runs of simulation = 10 runs

The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week = (The sum of the percentages outcome the days Ginger eats pizza)/(The number of runs of simulation)

∴ The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week = 8/10
