Answer 6

ok so out of 1000 customers we know that 200 of them did not order either turkey or ham. so I suppose we can say that 1000-200=800 orders

800 orders and each of those could be either turkey or ham or both

Answer 7

ok, but it says different

Answer 8

so im wondering if we say 800 orders = 390x+345x

or 800=735x

Answer 21

So, using the conditional formula?

Answer 22

200 customers ordered neither turkey nor ham, that was suppose to be 300 customers

Answer 23

no

Answer 24

I know they are asking for the conditional prob. so p( A given B)=p(A)+ p(B)-p(A intersects B)

Answer 40

Draw a rectangle to represent the set of 1000 orders. Call this set U (for universal set)

Answer 41

then inside this rectangle, draw overlapping circles A and B where

A = set of people who ordered turkey
B = set of people who ordered ham

Answer 42

We are told that "200 customers ordered neither turkey nor ham"

so the number 200 goes on the outside of either circle, but inside the rectangle
