There is a 0.23 probability that a typical convenience store customer buys gasoline. The probability that a customer buys groceries is 0.76 and the conditional probability of buying groceries given that the customer buys gasoline is 0.85.a) Find the probability that a typical customer buys both gasoline and groceries.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The probability that a typical customer buys both gasoline and groceries, P(Ga n Gr) = 0.1955

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the probability that a customer guys groceries be represented by P(Gr) and that of buying gasoline be P(Ga)

Given

P(Gr) = 0.76

P(Ga) = 0.23

P(Gr|Ga) = 0.85

For mutually exclusive events,

P(B|A) = (P(B n A))/P(A)

P(Gr|Ga) = (P(Gr n Ga))/P(Ga)

P(Gr n Ga) = P(Gr|Ga) × P(Ga)

P(Gr n Ga) = 0.85 × 0.23 = 0.1955

Hope this Helps!!!!

The ice skating rink charges an hourly fee for skating and $3 to rent skates for the day. Gillian rented skates and skated for 3 hours and was charged $21. Which equation represents the cost, c(x), of ice skating as a function of x, the number of hours of skating?

Answers

c(x) = 6x + 3
shee skated for 3 hrs and was charged $21
c(3) = 6(3) + 3
c(3) = 18 + 3
c(3) = 21
correct....so it is c(x) = 6x + 3

C(x) = 6x + 3 (in USD)

Further explanation

Given:

  • The fee to rent is $3 for the day.
  • Gillian rented skates and skated for 3 hours and was charged $21.

Question:

The equation that represents cost, C(x), ice skating as a function of x, the number of hours of skating.

The Process:

We try solving a word problem about the single variable equation.

Step-1: calculate the cost of skates per hour.

Let the rate of using the skating rink be R per hour. We will seek the value of R.

On that day Gillian rented skating for 3 hours and paid $ 21. The equation that will determine this given by:

\boxed{ \ 3R + 3 = 21 \ }

Both sides subtracted by 3.

\boxed{ \ 3R = 18 \ }

We isolate R on the left side. Both sides are divided by 3.

Hence, the fee of skates per hour is \boxed{R = \$6}

Step-2: determine the cost equation for ice skating

Let x as the number of hours of skating.

Recall the fee of skates per hour is $6 and the fee to rent is $3 for the day.

Thus, the equation which represents the cost of ice skating as a function of x, the number of hours of skating, will be given by:

\boxed{ \ C(x) = 6x + 3 \ } (in USD)
