She found that of 1,000 orders, 390 customers ordered turkey, 345 customers ordered ham, and 300 customers ordered neither turkey nor ham. Based on these data, how many of the next 1,000 customers will order both turkey and ham? Show your work and use complete sentences.

@hartnn can you try this one?

hartnn (hartnn):

\(\large P(ham \cap turkey) = P(ham) + P (turkey) - P(ham \cup turkey )\)

hartnn (hartnn):

how will you find P(ham) ?

hartnn (hartnn):

P(ham) = #ham orders/ total# of orders

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you would take 345/1000 which is 0.345

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and turkey is 390/1000 which is .39

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how to you find P(ham∪turkey)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*do

hartnn (hartnn):

neither turkey nor ham --->300 so, P(ham U turkey) = 1- P (neither turkey nor ham) thats because those who chose neither and those who chose either constitute total # customers

hartnn (hartnn):

let me draw it out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok :D thanks for helping me
