Evaluate the following expression. Express your answer in simplest form. 3/16 + 5/8 × 1/2

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to follow the order of operations. Since there are no parenthesis or exponents, we do multiplication first. to multiple fractions, we multiply the two numerators (top parts), which in this situation would get us 5*1=5. Then, we multiply the two denominators (bottom parts), which would get us 8*2=16. then we put the first result over the second, and we get 5/16. since the two denominators are the same, we don't need to change anything. we can just add the numerator, and get 8/16, which simplifies to 1/2.

50% of those who liked orange flavored soda also like lime flavored soda according to the conditional probability.

According to the statement

we have given that the in the survey 70% of the people surveyed said they like the orange flavored soda and 35% of the people surveyed said they liked the orange flavored soda AND the lime flavored soda.

And we have to find the conditional probability about this given statement.

So, We know that the

Let A and B represents the following events.

A : The people like the orange flavored soda.

B : The people like the lime flavored soda.

It is given that 70% of the people surveyed said they like the orange flavored soda.

so, P(A) = 0.70

And 35% of the people surveyed said they liked the orange flavored soda AND the lime flavored soda.

So, P(A ∩ B ) = 0.35

A. Conditional probability is a measure of the probability of an event occurring, given that another event has already occurred.

And

B. The formula for conditional probability is is written below:

P(A/B) = P(A ∩ B ) / P (B)

And

C. We need to find the percent of those who liked orange flavored soda also like lime flavored soda.

Use the above written conditional probability formula then

Substitute P(A)=0.70 and P(A∩B)=0.35 in the above formula.

So,

P(B/A) = P(A ∩ B ) / P (A)

P(B/A) = 0.35 / 0.70

P(B/A) = 0.50

So, 50% of those who liked orange flavored soda also like lime flavored soda according to the conditional probability.

Question:

The marketing research department at the Fresno Mall plans to survey teenagers about a newly developed soft drink. 70% of the people surveyed said they like the orange flavored soda. 35% of the people surveyed said they liked the orange flavored soda AND the lime flavored soda. Using this information and the Text Editor, answer the following questions:

1.What is conditional probability?

2.Explain the formula for conditional probability.

3.Explain how to solve this example.

What percent of those who liked orange flavored soda also like lime flavored soda, and how did you come to that conclusion?

Question #2

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

First, the student performed what was inside of the parentheses and was exponential, which is correct. We know this because of the rules called order of operations, outlined by PEMDAS, which tells us to perform mathematical operations in the following order: parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction.

So by the rules I just outlined, next the student should have performed the multiplication, but instead performed subtraction, which is incorrect.

The following is the correct simplification of the expression:

23 - 8 times 2 + 3 by the power of 2

So first we should perform parentheses, but there are none. So we move to the next option in the list, which is exponents, which we do have (3^2).

23 - 8 * 2 + 3^2

23 - 8 * 2 + 9

Next in PEMDAS comes multiplication and division. This means the next step in simplifying the expression is to evaluate 8*2.

23 - 16 + 9

Next in PEMDAS is addition, so we should perform the operation -16 + 9.

23 - 7

Finally, the last step in PEMDAS is to simplify the remaining operation (subtraction).

16

Therefore, the student did the first step correctly but performed the second step incorrectly. The final answer should be 16 after simplification.

Hope this helps!
