Fast Food Drive-Thru Accuracy If one order is selected, find the probability of getting food that is not from 惭肠顿辞苍补濒诲鈥檚.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The probability of getting food that is not from McDonald's is equal to 0.676.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The given data shows the number of food orders from four different outlets under two categories, accurate order and inaccurate order.

02

 Step 2: Describe probability

The probability of an event is computed using the given formula:

PE=NumberoffavorableoutcomesTotalnumberofoutcomes

Its value ranges from 0 to 1.

03

Compute the probability

The table below shows all the required subtotals and grand total for calculation of probability.

Let A be the event of getting food that is not from 惭肠顿辞苍补濒诲鈥檚.

The total number of food orders that are not from 惭肠顿辞苍补濒诲鈥檚 can be denoted as m.

The value is computed below as:

m=318+280+158=756

Let the total number of orders be denoted by N.

The probability of getting food that is not from 惭肠顿辞苍补濒诲鈥檚 is given as:

PA=mN=7561118=0.676208

Therefore, the probability of getting food that is not from 惭肠顿辞苍补濒诲鈥檚 is 0.676.

In Exercises 29 and 30, find the probabilities and indicate when the 鈥5% guideline for cumbersome calculations鈥 is used.

Medical Helicopters In the same study cited in the preceding exercise, among the 47,637 patients transported by helicopter, 188 of them left the treatment center against medical advice, and the other 47,449 did not leave against medical advice. If 40 of the subjects transported by helicopter are randomly selected without replacement, what is the probability that none of them left the treatment center against medical advice?

In Exercises 21鈥24, use these results from the 鈥1-Panel-THC鈥 test for marijuana use, which is provided by the company Drug Test Success: Among 143 subjects with positive test results, there are 24 false positive results; among 157 negative results, there are 3 false negative results. (Hint: Construct a table similar to Table 4-1, which is included with the Chapter Problem.)

Testing for Marijuana Use If one of the test subjects is randomly selected, find the probability that the subject tested negative or used marijuana.

In Exercises 21鈥24, refer to the sample data in Table 4-1, which is included with the Chapter Problem. Assume that 1 of the 555 subjects included in Table 4-1 is randomly selected.


Positive Test Result

(Test shows drug use)

Negative Test Result

(Test shows no drug use)

Drug Testing Job Applicants Find the probability of selecting someone who uses drugs. Does the result appear to be reasonable as an estimate of the 鈥減revalence rate鈥 described in the Chapter Problem?

In Exercises 25鈥32, find the probability and answer the questions.

X-Linked Genetic Disease Men have XY (or YX) chromosomes and women have XX chromosomes. X-linked recessive genetic diseases (such as juvenile retinoschisis) occur when there is a defective X chromosome that occurs without a paired X chromosome that is not defective. In the following, represent a defective X chromosome with lowercase x, so a child with the xY or Yx pair of chromosomes will have the disease and a child with XX or XY or YX or xX or Xx will not have the disease. Each parent contributes one of the chromosomes to the child.

a. If a father has the defective x chromosome and the mother has good XX chromosomes, what is the probability that a son will inherit the disease?

b. If a father has the defective x chromosome and the mother has good XX chromosomes, what is the probability that a daughter will inherit the disease? c. If a mother has one defective x chromosome and one good X chromosome and the father has good XY chromosomes, what is the probability that a son will inherit the disease?

d. If a mother has one defective x chromosome and one good X chromosome and the father has good XY chromosomes, what is the probability that a daughter will inherit the disease?

In Exercises 21鈥24, use these results from the 鈥1-Panel-THC鈥 test for marijuana use, which is provided by the company Drug Test Success: Among 143 subjects with positive test results, there are 24 false positive results; among 157 negative results, there are 3 false negative results. (Hint: Construct a table similar to Table 4-1, which is included with the Chapter Problem.)

Testing for Marijuana: Use If one of the test subjects is randomly selected, find the probability that the subject did not use marijuana. Do you think that the result reflects the general population rate of subjects who do not use marijuana?
