OpenStudy (anonymous):

not working dear maybe a screen-shot would be better

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

oh ok thank you :)

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A) how many have animal mascots? and what is the total number of teams/

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

42/122

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are 42 that have animal mascots out of 122 total. Thus, the probability of picking one with an animal mascot=42/122. Is this greater or less than 1/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For the next one, how many are cities with animal mascots? How many is the total of everything?

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

@Directrix

Directrix (directrix):

you me -------------- T T F F F F T T 42/122 > 1/3 36/122 < 1/3 6/20 < 1/3 36/102 > 1/3

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

so I was correct then :) thank you

Directrix (directrix):

Or, we are both incorrrect. I showed my work.

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

lol yeah we were correct that was my last question for that lesson :) can I add one more question to this thread? and I will give you your medals of course :)

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

Directrix (directrix):

1) P=(A|B) = P(A ∩ B)/P(B) (.30 * .75) / .75 = .3 See if you agree with that.

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

yes I do agre and I'm sorry I'm a bit late in replying but I was translating something for my mom

Directrix (directrix):

2) Same formula (.75 * .30) / .30 = .75

Directrix (directrix):

3) Do you think we read the 1% right out of the chart?

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

yes it is 1% and I'm so sorry I space out and I was doing other math question

Directrix (directrix):

D) .01/.30 = .03 Questionable Answer

Directrix (directrix):

E) .75 * .02 / .03 = .5 Very Questionable Answer

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

ok let me check

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

shouldn't it be 3/30 for D?

Directrix (directrix):

F) .02(.03)/.75 = .0008 Questionable

Directrix (directrix):

>>shouldn't it be 3/30 for D? You ask that but do not show any work.

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

because 3% for resulted in a home run and 30% for involving a left handed

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

@Directrix

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

@ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

1) P(A|B) = P(A ∩ B)/P(B) = 24 / 75 = 0.32

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

ok so that one is correct but what about the ones that directrix had questions on mainly D

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

that one is not correct, please go through again

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

1) A : left hand hitter B : right hand pitcher from the given table, 75% involved right hand pitcher, so P(B) = 75% 24% involved left hand hitter and right hand pitcher combo, so P(A ∩ B) = 24% P(A|B) = P(A ∩ B)/P(B) = 24 / 75 = 0.32

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

oh ok so its not 0.3 but 0.32 is that what you meant?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes, and do you get how to work the conditional probability ?

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

I think so let me try the second one

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

so the second one is 24/30?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Perfect!

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

ok can you stay and revise the rest please

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

then 1/3?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yep, keep going..

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

1/30?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

omg thank God lol I wasnt sure about that one xD

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

2/3?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

2/75?

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

@ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes, last one is 2/75

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

alright thank you very much :D

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yw

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

would the least likely be the ones with the smalle values or no?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

sort them in ascending order small first

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

ok thank you :)
