7. Consider the purchase of two cereal boxes.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

a) 0.25

b) 0.25

c) 0.0625

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Do you remember when breakfast cereal companies placed prizes in boxes of cereal? Possibly you recall that when a certain prize or toy was particularly special to children, it increased their interest in trying to get that toy. How many boxes of cereal would a customer have to buy to get that toy? Companies used this strategy to sell their cereal.

One of these companies put one of the following toys in its cereal boxes: a block (B), a toy watch (W), a toy ring (R), and a toy airplane (A). A machine that placed the toy in the box was programmed to select a toy by drawing a random number of 1 to 4. If a 1 was selected, the block (or B) was placed in the box; if a 2 was selected, a watch (or W) was placed in the box; if a 3 was selected, a ring (or R) was placed in the box; and if a 4 was selected, an airplane (or A) was placed in the box. When this promotion was launched, young children were especially interested in getting the toy airplane.

What is the probability of getting an airplane in the first cereal box?

Since the machine randomly selects toys, each toy has the same probability of being obtained in a cereal box.

Then, the total outcomes are 4 and the probability of getting an airplane in the first cereal box is 0.25 (25%).

What is the probability of getting an airplane in the second cereal box?

Two independent events do not change the probability of occurrence of one event or another.

The probability of getting an airplane in the second cereal box is 0.25 (25%).

What is the probability of getting airplanes in both cereal boxes?

P(1°∩2°)= P(1°) × P(2°) = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{4} =\frac{1}{16}

P(1°∩2°)= 0.0625 = 6.25%

ryzh [129]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

B because the y-intercept is (0,-1) and another point is (5,9). Using the slope formula, 10/5=2 so the right equation is B.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

A. 64 trucks and 80 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 4:5 or 4/5, which equals 0.8. Divide the number of trucks by the number of cars to see which other answer equals 0.8. The only one that does is A.

1 point) during a winter season at one ski resort, there are two roads from area a to area b and two roads from area b to area
miss Akunina [59]
Probability that both roads from a to b are blocked is the product of the individual probabilities, i.e.
P(~ab)=0.25*0.25=0.0625
Similarly
P(~bc)=0.25*0.25=0.0625
Probability that EITHER one or both of ab and bc are blocked is the sum of the probabilities:
P(~ab ∪ ~bc)=0.0625+0.0625=0.125
(recall that one cannot travel from a to c if either ab or bc is blocked.)

Therefore the probability that there exists an open route from a to c
= P(ac) = 1-P(~ab ∪ ~bc)
= 1 - 0.125
=0.875
