Short Answer

Expert verified

The correct option is :

b.32/80

Step by step solution

01

Given information

We have to tell the probability that the person owns a Chevy, given that the truck has four-wheel drive.

02

Explanation

We know that

  • A total of 125truck owners were asked what type of truck they had and if it had four-wheel drive.
  • The likelihood of the person owning a Dodge or having a four-wheel drive is high.
  • The total of eighty drivers own four-wheel and thirty-two own four-wheel Chevy.

Therefore,

Cell phonesThe Pew Research Center asked a random sample of 2024adult cell-phone owners from the United States their age and which type of cell phone they own: iPhone, Android, or other (including non-smartphones). The two-way table summarizes the data.

Suppose we select one of the survey respondents at random. What鈥檚 the probability that:

a. The person is not age 18to 34and does not own an iPhone?

b. The person is age 18to 34or owns an iPhone?

Checking independence Suppose A and B are two events such thatP(A)=0.3andP(B)=0.4, andP(A鈭�B)=0.12. Are events A and B independent? Justify your answer.

Is this your card? A standard deck of playing cards (with jokers removed) consists of 52 cards in four suits鈥攃lubs, diamonds, hearts, and spades. Each suit has 13 cards, with denominations ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, jack, queen, and king. The jacks, queens, and kings are referred to as 鈥渇ace cards.鈥� Imagine that we shuffle the deck thoroughly and deal one card. The two-way table summarizes the sample space for this chance process based on whether or not the card is a face card and whether or not the card is a heart.

The security system in a house has two units that set off an alarm when motion is

detected. Neither one is entirely reliable, but one or both always go off when there is

motion anywhere in the house. Suppose that for motion in a certain location, the

probability that detector A goes off and detector B does not go off is 0.25, and the

probability that detector A does not go off is 0.35. What is the probability that detector

B goes off?
