Answer:

There are 10 five dollars bills in Lawrence's  pocket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total bills = 15,

Let x be the number of five dollar bills,

⇒ The number of ten dollars bill = 15 - x

Thus, the total amount = 5x + 10(15-x)

According to the question,

5x + 10(15-x) = 100

⇒ 5x + 150 - 10x = 100

⇒ - 5x + 150 = 100

⇒ -5x = 100 - 150

⇒ -5x = -50

⇒ x = 10

Hence, there are 10 five dollars bills in Lawrence's  pocket.

The prior probabilities for events A1 and A2 are P(A1) = 0.20 and P(A2) = 0.80. It is also known that P(A1 ∩ A2) = 0. Suppose P(
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

(a) A_1 and A_2 are indeed mutually-exclusive.

(b) \displaystyle P(A_1\; \cap \; B) = \frac{1}{20}, whereas \displaystyle P(A_2\; \cap \; B) = \frac{1}{25}.

(c) \displaystyle P(B) = \frac{9}{100}.

(d) \displaystyle P(A_1 \; |\; B) \approx \frac{5}{9}, whereas P(A_1 \; |\; B) = \displaystyle \frac{4}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>(a)</h3>

P(A_1 \; \cap \; A_2) = 0 means that it is impossible for events A_1 and A_2 to happen at the same time. Therefore, event A_1 and A_2 are mutually-exclusive.

<h3>(b)</h3>

By the definition of conditional probability:

\displaystyle P(B \; | \; A_1) = \frac{P(B \; \cap \; A_1)}{P(B)} = \frac{P(A_1 \; \cap \; B)}{P(B)}.

Rearrange to obtain:

\displaystyle P(A_1 \; \cap \; B) = P(B \; |\; A_1) \cdot  P(A_1) = 0.25 \times 0.20 = \frac{1}{20}.

Similarly:

\displaystyle P(A_2 \; \cap \; B) = P(B \; |\; A_2) \cdot  P(A_2) = 0.80 \times 0.05 = \frac{1}{25}.

<h3>(c)</h3>

Note that:

\begin{aligned}P(A_1 \; \cup \; A_2) &= P(A_1) + P(A_2) - P(A_1 \; \cap \; A_2) = 0.20 + 0.80 = 1\end{aligned}.

In other words, A_1 and A_2 are collectively-exhaustive. Since A_1 and A_2 are collectively-exhaustive and mutually-exclusive at the same time:

\displaystyle P(B) = P(B \; \cap \; A_1) + P(B \; \cap \; A_2) = \frac{1}{20} + \frac{1}{25} = \frac{9}{100}.

<h3>(d)</h3>

By Bayes' Theorem:

\begin{aligned} P(A_1 \; |\; B) &= \frac{P(B \; | \; A_1) \cdot P(A_1)}{P(B)} \\ &= \frac{0.25 \times 0.20}{9/100} = \frac{0.05 \times 100}{9} = \frac{5}{9}\end{aligned}.

Similarly:

\begin{aligned} P(A_2 \; |\; B) &= \frac{P(B \; | \; A_2) \cdot P(A_2)}{P(B)} \\ &= \frac{0.05 \times 0.80}{9/100} = \frac{0.04 \times 100}{9} = \frac{4}{9}\end{aligned}.

Nana76 [90]

The total distance if Pete walks from A to B to C is 40 yards, the direct distance from A to C is more than 10 yards, and an inequality w < 30

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

It is defined as the expression in mathematics in which both sides are not equal they have mathematical signs either less than or greater than known as inequality.

We have:

Points A, B, and C, form a triangle. The distance between point A and point B is 15 yards. The distance between point B and point C is 25 yards.

Total distance if Pete walks from A to B to C:

= 15 + 25 = 40 yards

As we know in the triangle the sum of the two sides is greater than the third side.

25 + 15 > AC

40 > AC

or

AC < 40

The direct distance from A to C is more than 10(25-15) yards.

The inequality w < 30 represents the distance, w, that Pete might save by taking the direct path.

Thus, the total distance if Pete walks from A to B to C is 40 yards, the direct distance from A to C is more than 10 yards, and an inequality w < 30
