Suppose that 70% of the orders on a particular website are shipped to the person who is making the order and the remaining 30% a

re shipped to the people other than the person placing the order. Gift wrapping is requested for 60% of the orders being shipped to other people, but for only 10% of the orders shipped to the person making the order.
a. What is the probability that a randomly selected order will be a gift wrapped and sent to a person other than the person making the order?
b. What is the probability that a randomly selected order will be gift wrapped?
c. Is gift wrapping independent of the destination of the gifts? Justify your response statistically?

Answer:

0.18 ; 0.1875 ; No

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

Person making the order = P

Other person = O

Gift wrapping = w

P(p) = 0.7 ; P(O) = 0.3 ; p(w|O) = 0.60 ; P(w|P) = 0.10

What is the probability that a randomly selected order will be a gift wrapped and sent to a person other than the person making the order?

Using the relation :

P(W|O) = P(WnO) / P(O)

P(WnO) = P(W|O) * P(O)

P(WnO) = 0.60 * 0.3 = 0.18

b. What is the probability that a randomly selected order will be gift wrapped?

P(W) = P(W|O) * P(O) + P(W|P) * P(P)

P(W) = (0.60 * 0.3) + (0.1 * 0.7)

P(W) = 0.18 + 0.07

P(W) = 0.1875

c. Is gift wrapping independent of the destination of the gifts? Justify your response statistically

No.

For independent events the occurrence of A does not impact the occurrence if the other.

Help with 19,20,21,23 please i don't understand geometry at all
Murrr4er [49]
19.  What you know is that HK+KJ = HJ.  If HJ = 25, the sum of the two equations will equal this length.  

x-5+5x-12=25  First, combine your like terms.  You will end up with 6x-17=25.  Add the opposite of -17 to both sides.  6x = 42  Divide both sides by 6.  x = 7.  Substitute x=7 for your original expression of x-5, 7-5=2

20.  (5x-6)/2 = x+6  Multiply each side by 2.  5x-6 = 2x +12  Add 6 to each side 5x = 2x + 18 then subtract 2x from both sides as well.  3x = 18 Finally divide each side by 3.  x=6   To find the length of the remaining segment, substitute this value into (5x-6)/2.  This results in each side equaling a distance of 12.

21.  On the number line, the distance of FG is 16 units.  If the distance of FP is 1/4 of FG, you would simply divide 16 by 4.  The distance of FP is 4 and P lies at 8 on your number line.

23. The distance of SP is x+4 and ST=4x.  Since P is the midpoint, you only have one half of the line as x+4, if you were to double it, you would find that 2x+8 = 4x.  Balance and solve for x, subtract 2x from both sides. 8=2x  Divide each side by 4, 8/4 = 4x/4 resulting in x=2.  If ST equals 4x, substitute and solve, 4(2) = 8
