Answer:
a) 0.50575,
b) 0.042
Step-by-step explanation:
Example 1.5. A person goes shopping 3 times. The probability of buying a good product for the first time is 0.7.
If the first time you can buy good products, the next time you can buy good products is 0.85; (I interpret this as, if you buy a good product, then the next time you buy a good product is 0.85).
And if the last time I bought a bad product, the next time I bought a good one is 0.6. Calculate the probability that:
a) All three times the person bought good goods.
P(Good on 1st shopping event AND Good on 2nd shopping event AND Good on 3rd shopping event) =
P(Good on 1st shopping event) *P(Good on 2nd shopping event | Good on 1st shopping event) * P(Good on 3rd shopping event | 1st and 2nd shopping events yield Good) =
(0.7)(0.85)(0.85) =
0.50575
b) Only the second time that person buys a bad product.
P(Good on 1st shopping event AND Bad on 2nd shopping event AND Good on 3rd shopping event) =
P(Good on 1st shopping event) *P(Bad on 2nd shopping event | Good on 1st shopping event) * P(Good on 3rd shopping event | 1st is Good and 2nd is Bad shopping events) =
(0.7)(1-0.85)(1-0.6) =
(0.7)(0.15)(0.4) =
0.042
0.07 x 11.2 = 0.784 -< Answer
14 x 3/4 = 42/4 = 10.5 lbs
1 lb = 450 g...so 10.5 lbs = (10.5 x 450) = 4725 g.....1 g = 0.001 kg....so 4725 grams = (4725 x .001) = 4.725 kg
so ur gonna need a medium sized turkey.....4.725 kg...at 5.99 per kg =
(4.725 x 5.99) = $ 28.30 <==
This answer would be false srry if im wrong but thats what i think
Answer:
.90(85.00) would give the same result
Step-by-step explanation:
Rhonda is using the total cost of the item ($85.00) multiplied by the discount (10%) to find the total discount: 85 x 0.10 = 8.50. Once Rhonda subtracts the discount ($8.50) from the total: $85 - $8.50 = $76.50. The other way to look at the problem, is that Rhonda is only paying for 90% of the total cost of the items, instead of 100% since she is receiving the 10% discount. So, she would get the same final total by multiplying the cost of the items ($85.00) by 90%, or 0.90.
