Napoleon Crossing the Alps
2 answers:
It took him 2.6 hours to reach the top
Data;
- Uphill = 6km
- Downhill = 4km
- Total time taken = 8 hours
Let us calculate the speed during uphill and downhill
Since the time it took them to descend is twice the time it took them to ascend,
- Let x represent the time taken to ascend
From the calculation above, it took him 2.6 hours to reach the top.

The results of the survey are shown in the table.
It's required to calculate the following probabilities:
a) A customer is neutral
The row labeled as 'Neutral' has a total of 79 customers out of 367 in total.
The required probability is:
b) A customer is a walk-in
The first column labeled as 'Walk-in' has a total of 106 customers out of 367. The required probability is
c) A customer is dissatisfied and a walk-in.
We have to cross the row Dissatisfied with the column Walk-in. The number of customers that have both categories is 22 out of 367.
The required probability is:
d) A customer is very satisfied given he saw a TV ad.
This is a conditional probability, where the total is 111 because is the given condition. The customers that have both characteristics are 33, thus the required probability is:
e) A customer is satisfied or referred.
Total satisfied = 139
Total referred = 150
With both features = 62
Total customers with one or both features: 139 + 150 - 62 = 227
We have to subtract the common feature because it was counted twice.
The required probability is:
