Q. 2 A car dealer notes the following probabilities about his customers: P(those who buy a new car ) = 0.25 P(those who buy a European car) = 0.30 P(those who neither buy a new car nor an European car ) = 0.58 Find the probability that next customer buys a new European car?
The probability of afternoon rain given morning cloud cover >50% is of interest to those forecasting the weather. You can calculate this probability using Bayes' Theorem (below). The probability of morning cloud cover in general is 30% in the area you are concerned with and when there's afternoon rain, morning cloud cover of the kind described above occurs 90% of the time. The probability of rain in general for the area is about 26% of days. From the above information, identify what P(BIA) would be. Express your answer as a proportion, rounded to two decimal places. P(A/B)= = P(B|A)*P(A) P(B)
A deck of four (4) cards has exactly one (1) color printed on each face – blue, yellow, red, or green. You have two (2) identical decks of this type. In this game, you randomly select a card from each of the two decks. Your score is the number of blue cards drawn – refer to this quantity as X. The probability distribution is below: X P(X) 0 0.5625 1 0.375 2 0.0625 What is the average number of blue cards drawn? What is the probability that at most one blue card is drawn?
Suppose that 20,000 married adults in a country were randomly surveyed as to the number of children they have. The results are compiled and are used as theoretical probabilities. Let X = the number of children married people have. P(x) ХP(x) 0.15 1 0.25 0.35 4 0.10 0.05 6 (or more) 0.05 (a) Find the probability that a married adult has three children. (Enter your answer to two decimal places.) (b) In words, what does the expected value in this example represent? O the average number of children married adults in the country have the average number of children adults in the country have O the number of children married adults in the country have O the number of children adults in the country have (c) Find the expected value. (Enter your answer to two decimal place.) children (d) Is it more likely that a married adult will have two to three children or four to six children? How do you know? O it is more likely to have two to three children, with p = 0.35 O it is more likely to have four…

Jim has a 5-year-old car in reasonably good condition. He wants to take out a $20,000 term (that is, accident benefit) car insurance policy until the car is 10 years old. Assume that the probability of a car having an accident in the year in which it is x years old is as follows: x = age 5 6 7 8 9 P(accident) 0.01182 0.01282 0.01386 0.01513 0.01602 Jim is applying to a car insurance company for his car insurance policy. If the car insurance company wants to make a profit of $700 above the expected total losses of $1393, how much should it charge for the policy? Group of answer choices $701 $693 $713 $703 $705

A deck of four (4) cards has exactly one (1) color printed on each face – blue, yellow, red, or green. You have two (2) identical decks of this type. In this game, you randomly select a card from each of the two decks. Your score is the number of blue cards drawn – refer to this quantity as X. The probability distribution is below: X P(X) 0 0.5625 1 0.375 2 0.0625 1. If we replaced the yellow card in the first deck with another blue card, what would be the probability of drawing two blue cards? 2. If we replaced the yellow card in the first deck with another blue card, what distribution would the variable X follow?

Q1. Some couples planning a new family would prefer at least one child of each sex. The probability that a couple’s first child is a boy is 0.512. In the absence of technological intervention, the probability that their second child is a boy is independent of the sex of their first child, and so remains 0.512. Imagine that you are helping a new couple with their planning. If the couple plans to have only two children: What is the probability that at least one girl is born?
