Probability question

Answer 1

http://i335.photobucket.com/albums/m467/flameboy298/Recapture-2.png
a. What is the probability a day in the 80s is a Monday?

b. Which set forms the intersection of Tuesdays in the 80s?

c. What is the probability an observation picked at random is both a Sunday and more than 100 degrees?

Answer 2

I need help going through these questions

Answer 3

Ok, so for number 1, a day in the 80s, I think that part is just extra information to try to fool you. So it would be what is the probability a day is a monday, and then you would figure out how many mondays there are in a year (four mondays a month multiplied that by 12 cus of how many months there are) so 1/48, I think.

Answer 4

Thanks

Answer 5

I understand that

Answer 6

I think maybe the second one is maybe 100-109?Forms a intersection

Answer 7

Woot woot! I am not sure what number two is, but three for the first part it would be again, 1/48 because there are 48 sundays in a year. The part about more than 100 degrees is tricky, though, so I am not sure about the last part.....Number two might be 180 and 90, but then again, that is a total guess and I could be very wrong...

Answer 8

thanks

Answer 9

No problem!

Answer 10

wait I have one more

Answer 11

Aight I'm game

Answer 12

Compute the probability that an observation picked at random will be a Saturday observation.

Answer 13

My best guess is 1/48, but at random...I would say 1/48, I think... Sorry if this is wrong

Answer 14

Thanks anyways man

Answer 15

Any time!

Answer 16

well

Answer 17

I think that last question is just trying to fool you as well but there are only 7 days a week and it is not saying in a year... so maybe its just 1/7?

Answer 18

but it doesn't say in a week...

Answer 19

I have no idea, I find it ironic that I'm even helping with math cus I ultimately fail at the subject xD

Answer 20

also

your answer to the first question was wrong

Answer 21

It is?

Answer 22

It Wouldn't be 1/48, because that would assume only 48 days in a year... what you meant to type was 48/365. simplified that is 1/7

Answer 23

Ahhh....and I was really convinced it was 1/48 thanks

Answer 24

Right! Sorry bout that again...

Answer 25

wait 48/365?

Answer 26

No problem it was a simple mistake. Zz was on the right track. And simplify 48/365

Answer 27

48/365 = 1/7

Answer 28

Yeah I simplified but did you understand the rest?

Answer 29

number 3 should be 3/20

Answer 30

What makes you think that?

Answer 31

2/20 my bad. and because you take all the days that were 100 deggrees or over, and then however many of those days wer sundays is your answer

also simplify 2/20 to 1/10

Answer 32

Thanks

Answer 33

No problem. anything else you need?
