Please! Could you help me solving this practice problem I’m having hard time with it.
What is the probability that a randomly selected student does not have a Microsoft product and does not have an Apple product (does not have either product).
In a sales effectiveness seminar, a group of sales representatives tried two approaches to selling a customer a new automobile: the aggressive approach and the passive approach. For 1160 customers, the following record was kept: Suppose a customer is selected at random from the 1160 participating customers. Let us use the following notation for events: A = aggressive approach, Pa = passive approach, S = sale, N = no sale. So, P(A) is the probability that an aggressive approach was used, and so on. (a) Compute P(S), P(S | A), and P(S | Pa). (Enter your answers as fractions.) Simplify the fraction if needed P(S) = ? P(S | A) = ? P(S | Pa) = 95/116 (b) Compute P(A and S) and P(Pa and S). (Enter your answers as fractions.) Simplify the fraction if needed P(A and S) = ? P(Pa and S) = 95/232 (c) Compute P(N) and P(N | A). (Enter your answers as fractions.) Simplify the fraction if needed
Consider the experiment: You ask someone two multiple-choice questions. Each question could be answered with Yes (Y), No (N), or Don't Know (D). (For example, if you ask someone these two questions, they could answer Yes to both of them, or Yes to the first one and Don't Know to the second one, etc.) Let A be the event that the person answers Yes to at least one question, and Let B be the event that the person answers No to the second question. How many elements are in the sample space? What elements are in A ∩ B? What elements are in A ′?
This is a Statistics problem. Please explain each step thoroughly. The problem I'm having issues with is shown below: In an experiment where you toss a fair coin twice, define events: AA : the first toss is heads. BB : the second toss is heads. CC : both tosses are the same. Show that AA and BB are independent. Show that AA and CC are independent. Show that BB and CC are independent. Finally, show that AA, BB, and CC are not mutually independent.
A study is conducted to assess the impact of caffeine consumption, smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity on cardiovascular disease. Suppose that 40% of participants consume caffeine and smoke. If eight participants are evaluated, what is the probability that: At most, six participants consume caffeine and smoke?
Each month a brokerage house studies various companies and rates each company's stock as being either "low risk" or "moderate to high risk." In a recent report, the brokerage house summarized its findings about 18 aerospace companies and 55 food retailers in the following table: Company Type Aerospace company Food retailer Low Risk 10 25 Probability If we randomly select one of the total of 73 companies W (a) Find the probability that the company's stock is moderate to high risk given that the firm is an aerospace company. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) Moderate to High Risk 8 30 0.4444
a and b working together can do a given job in 4 days, b and c together can do the job in 3 days, and a and c together can do it in 2.4 days. in how many days can they finish the job all together? Answer is 7 days. Please show your solution.
Practice question #7. A company has 3 assembly lines for making components: A1 is the event that a component is made on the first assembly line, A2 is the event a component is on the second line, and A3 is the event a component is on the third line. D is the event that a component is defective. A sample of 1000 components is taken and represented in this table below. Fill in the missing blanks, then answer the following questions. In A-G youmay leave as fractions or round to 3 decimal places as needed. A. Find P(A1) B. Find P(D) C. Find P(DC) D. Interpret what P(DC) means in practical terms, in the context of this problem. Write a sentence. E. Find P(D ∩ A1) F. Find P(D ∪ A1) G. Find P(A1|D). (In other words, if we know a component is defective, what is the likelihood it was madeon the first assembly line?) Show a little work. H. Find P(D|A1). (In other words, if we know a component was made on the first assembly line, what isthe likelihood it is defective?) I. Continue referring to…
