Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The most important part of this question is the estimation. That means you round either up or down to get whole numbers.

You can make - 37.44 either - 40 or - 35

You can make 4.8 into 5

So the answer should lie between -40/5 = - 8

The answer should be between - 35/5 = - 7

Use your calculator to check it.

-37.44 ÷ 4.8 = - 7.8

This skill is very handy when shopping or writing a test. It you get an outrageous answer like - 21.44 you know you have done something wrong.

We're told that

$P(A\cap B)=0.15$

$P(A\cup B)^C=0.06\implies P(A\cup B)=0.94$

$P(B\mid A)=P(B^C\mid A)=0.5$

where the last fact is due to the law of total probability:

$P(A)=P(A\cap B)+P(A\cap B^C)$

$\implies P(A)=P(B\mid A)P(A)+P(B^C\mid A)P(A)$

$\implies 1=P(B\mid A)+P(B^C\mid A)$

so that $B\mid A$ and $B^C\mid A$ are complementary.

By definition of conditional probability, we have

$P(B\mid A)=P(B^C\mid A)$

$\implies\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}=\dfrac{P(A\cap B^C)}{P(A)}$

$\implies P(A\cap B)=P(A\cap B^C)$

We make use of the addition rule and complementary probabilities to rewrite this as

$P(A\cap B)=P(A\cap B^C)$

$\implies P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B^C)-P(A\cup B^C)$

$\implies P(B)-[1-P(A\cup B)^C]=[1-P(B)]-P(A\cup B^C)$

$\implies2P(B)=2-[P(A\cup B)^C+P(A\cup B^C)]$

$\implies2P(B)=[1-P(A\cup B)^C]+[1-P(A\cup B^C)]$

$\implies2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+P(A\cup B^C)^C$

$\implies2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+P(A^C\cap B)\quad(*)$

By the law of total probability,

$P(B)=P(A\cap B)+P(A^C\cap B)$

$\implies P(A^C\cap B)=P(B)-P(A\cap B)$

and substituting this into $(*)$ gives

$2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+[P(B)-P(A\cap B)]$

$\implies P(B)=P(A\cup B)-P(A\cap B)$

$\implies P(B)=0.94-0.15=\boxed{0.79}$
