Answer: Jessica eats 2 chocolates an hour.

Step-by-step explanation: To find how many she eats in hour, we would first subtract the number of chocolates by the number that are left (20 - 12), which equals 8. Next, we would divide the total by the time spent eating (8 / 4), or 2.

Answer:

$P(Green\ candy\ or\ Blue\ candy) = 0.16$

Yes, they are mutually exclusive

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Refer to the table in the question

Solving (a): P(green candy or blue candy)

This is calculated as:

$P(Green\ candy\ or\ Blue\ candy) = P(Green) + P(Blue)$

From the question:

$P(Blue) = 10\%$

$P(Green) = 6\%$

So:

$P(Green\ candy\ or\ Blue\ candy) = P(Green) + P(Blue)$

$P(Green\ candy\ or\ Blue\ candy) = 6\% + 10\%$

$P(Green\ candy\ or\ Blue\ candy) = 16\%$

Convert to decimal

$P(Green\ candy\ or\ Blue\ candy) = 0.16$

Solving (b): Are they mutually exclusive?

Multiple events A and B are mutually exclusive if;

$P(A\ or\ B) = P(A) + P(B)$

In (a) above:

$P(Green\ candy\ or\ Blue\ candy) = P(Green) + P(Blue)$

and this is so every other possible colour of candy

e.g.

$P(Red\ or\ Yellow) = P(Red) + P(Yellow)$

Hence:

The events are mutually exclusive
