A Game of Thrones fan predicts there is a 70% chance that her favorite character will survive the next season and a 75% chance t
zepelin [54]

Answer:

  • <em>The probability that the second favorite character will die given that the first favorite character dies is</em><u> 0.53</u>

  • <u>This kind of probability is called conditional probability</u>

Explanation:

Name the events and their probabiities:

  • Event  A: her favorite character will survive, so P (A) = 0.70

  • Event B: her her second favorite character will die, so P(B) = 0.75

  • Both characters will die ⇒ P (B and not A) = 0.16

You want to find P (B | not A).

That is the probability of the succes B (the second favorite character will die) given other event (not A or the first favorite character dies) is certain (it happens) and that is called conditional probability.

  • P (not A) is the complement probability of A, so P (not A) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

So, you have P(B), P(not A) and want to find P (B | not A)

The definition of conditional probability is:

  • P (X | Y) = P (X and Y) / P (Y)

So, replacing with our terms, we get:

  • P ( B | not A) = P (B and not A) / P (not A) = 0.16 / 0.3 ≈ 0.53

VLD [36.1K]

The answer is 95.4525 percent because you would use an equation

n!/(r!(n-r)! x (P)^x * (1-P)^(n-x)

Plug in the number correspondingly

N= 10

R= 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 (You will have to do each individual, if you have a Ti-nspire calculator however there is a built program called binomialcdf.

P= .37

x = r

After plugging this is the achieved answer is 95.4525

(.0578 + .1529 + .2394 + .2461 + .1734 + .0849) x 100

additive may be a little off due to rounding.
