Answer:

0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

P(bike) = 0.8

P(car) = 0.2

P(Late given car) = P(Late | car) = 0.05

P(Late given bike) = p(Late | bike) = 0.1

Probability that professor is late :

P(late) = [P(Late | car) * p(car)] + [p(Late | bike) * p(bike)]

P(late) = [0.05 * 0.2] + [0.1 * 0.8]

P(late) = 0.01 + 0.08

P(late) = 0.09

2. Al and Ike decide to drive to Sandy Shores Lake. As they leave home in Summerville, they notice that the car odometer reads 1
Lilit [14]
When they leave home, odometer reads 12,544.....when they arrive in Winterton, the odometer reads 12,671.....this means they have already driven (12,671 - 12,544) = 127 miles.....and now they have 48 more miles to go......so the trip to Sandy Shores from Summerville is (127 + 48) = 175 miles
