Find the probability that the person is frequently or occasionally involved in charity work.

Schach [20]

Given the table below which shows the result of a survey that asked 2,881 people whether they are involved in any type of charity work.

$\begin{tabular}
{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
 &Frequently&Occassionally&Not at all&Total\\[1ex]
Male&227&454&798&1,479\\
Female &205&450&747&1,402\\
Total&432&904&1,545&2,881
\end{tabular}$

Part A:

If a person is chosen at random, the probability that the person is frequently or occassinally involved in charity work is given by

$P(being \ frequently \ involved \ or \ being \ occassionally \ involved)\\ \\= \frac{432}{2881} + \frac{904}{2881} = \frac{1336}{2881}=\bold{0.464}$

Part B:

If a person is chosen at random, the probability that the person is female or not involved in charity work at all is given by

$P(being
 \ female \ or \ not \ being \ involved)\\ \\= 
\frac{1402}{2881} + \frac{1545}{2881}-\frac{747}{2881} = 
\frac{2200}{2881}=\bold{0.764}$

Part C:

If a person is chosen at random, the probability that the person is male or frequently involved in charity work is given by

$P(being
 \ male \ or \ being \ frequently \ involved)\\ \\= 
\frac{1479}{2881} + \frac{432}{2881}-\frac{227}{2881} = 
\frac{1684}{2881}=\bold{0.585}$

Part D:

If a person is chosen at random, the probability that the person is female or not frequently involved in charity work is given by

$P(being
 \ female \ or \ not \ being \ frequently \ involved)\\ \\= 
\frac{1402}{2881} + \frac{904}{2881} + \frac{1545}{2881}-\frac{450}{2881}-\frac{747}{2881} = 
\frac{2654}{2881}=\bold{0.921}$

Part E:

The events "being female" and "being frequently involved in charity work" are not mutually exclusive because being a female does not prevent a person from being frequently involved in charity work.

Indeed from the table, there are 205 females who are frequently involved in charity work.

Therefore, the answer to the question is "No, because 205 females are frequently involved charity work".

A cab driver is paid $6 plus $0. 45 per mile driven. Which expression shows the amount of money the cab driver earns in m miles?

Leni [432]

Algebraic expression is the expression which consist the variables, coefficients and the constants. The expression for the condition given in the problem is $0.45m+6$ .

Given information

A cab driver is paid $6 plus $0.45 per mile driven.

Total number of total miles is <em>m.</em>

<h3>Algebraic expression</h3>

Algebraic expression is the expression which consist the variables, coefficients and the constants. The algebraic expression are used to solve the condition based problems by expressing them into the algebraic form.

As the cab driver is paid $6 as the fixed amount of the taxi irrespective to the mile driven. Thus this is independent to the other variables and written as the constant in the expression.

As the total miles driven by the cab driver is<em> m</em>. The cost of the per mile driven the car is $0.45. Thus the expression for this condition can be given as,

$f(m)=0.45m+6$
