10) A survey of business students who had taken the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) indicated that students who have s

pent at least five hours studying GMAT review guides have a probability of 0.85 of scoring above 400. Students who do not spend at least five hours reviewing have a probability of 0.65 of scoring above 400. It has been determined that 70% of the business students spent at least five hours reviewing for the test. a. Find the probability of scoring above 400. b. Find the probability that given a student scored above 400, he/she spent at least five hours reviewing for the test.

Answer:

0.79 ; 0.753

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Students who have spent at least five hours studying GMAT review guides have a probability of 0.85 of scoring above 400 :

≥ 5 hours review = 0.85

Students who do not spend at least five hours reviewing have a probability of 0.65 of scoring above 400

< 5 hours = 0.65

70% (0.7) of business students spend atleast 5 hours review time

A.) probability of scoring above 400

(Proportion who spend atleast 5 hours review time * 0.85) + (Proportion who do not spend atleast 5 hours * 0.65)

Proportion who do not spend atleast 5 hours = (1 - proportion who spend atleast 5 hours) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

Hence,

P(scoring above 400) = (0.7 * 0.85) + (0.3 * 0.65) = 0.595 + 0.195

= 0.79

B.) probability that given a student scored above 400, he/she spent at least five hours reviewing for the test.

P(spent ≥5 hours review | score above 400) :

P(spent ≥5 hours review) / P(score > 400)

(0.7 * 0.85) / 0.79

0.595 / 0.79

= 0.753

An elementary school is offering 2 language classes: one in Spanish (S) and one in French (F). Given that P(S) = 50%, P(F) = 40%
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

(a) Probability that a randomly selected student is taking Spanish given that he or she is taking French = 0.5 .

(b) Probability that a randomly selected student is not taking French given that he or she is not taking Spanish = 0.6 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an elementary school is offering 2 language classes ;

 <em>Spanish Language is denoted by S and French language is denoted by F.</em>

Also we are given, P(S) = 0.5 {Probability of students taking Spanish language}

P(F) = 0.4 {Probability of students taking French language}

P(S\bigcup F) = 0.7 {Probability of students taking Spanish or French Language}

<em>We know that,  </em>P(A\bigcup B)<em>  = </em>P(A) + P(B) -<em> </em>P(A\bigcap B)<em />

So, P(S\bigcap F) = P(S) + P(F) - P(S\bigcup F) = 0.5 + 0.4 - 0.7 = 0.2

P(S\bigcap F) means Probability of students taking  both Spanish and French Language.

Also, P(S)' = 1 - P(S) = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

         P(F)' = 1 - P(F) = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

        P(S'\bigcap F') = 1 -  P(S\bigcup F) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

(a) Probability that a randomly selected student is taking Spanish given that he or she is taking French is given by P(S/F);

  P(S/F) = \frac{P(S\bigcap F)}{P(F)} = \frac{0.2}{0.4} = 0.5

(b) Probability that a randomly selected student is not taking French given that he or she is not taking Spanish is given by P(F'/S');

   P(F'/S') = \frac{P(S'\bigcap F')}{P(S')} = \frac{1- P(S\bigcup F)}{1-P(S)} = \frac{0.3}{0.5} = 0.6 .

Note: 2. A pair of fair dice is rolled until a sum of either 5 or 7 appears  ; This question is incomplete please provide with complete detail.
