Answer:

60 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If the pizza maker makes 14 pizzas per hour in average,

Assuming that s/he will keep making pizzas in this rate for the following hours, then the time s/he needs to make 840 pizza can be found by dividing 840 to the average pizza amount 14, that is :

$\frac{840}{14} =60$ hours.

Given the table below showing the probabilities of the orphaned pets in six cities' animal shelters being different types of animals.


 City Cat Dog Dog Dog Dog
 −Lhasa Apso −Mastiff −Chihuahua −Collie
Austin 24.5% 2.76% 2.86% 3.44% 2.65%
Baltimore 19.9% 3.37% 3.22% 3.31% 2.85%
Charlotte 33.7% 3.25% 3.17% 2.89% 3.33%
St. Louis 43.8% 2.65% 2.46% 3.67% 2.91%
Salt Lake
City 28.9% 2.85% 2.78% 2.96% 2.46%
Orlando 37.6% 3.33% 3.41% 3.45% 2.78%
Total 22.9% 2.91% 2.68% 3.09% 2.58%

Condtional probability is a measure of the probability of an event given that another event has occurred. If the event of interest is A and the event B is known or assumed to have occurred, "the conditional probability of A given B", or "the probability of A under the condition B", is usually written as P(A|B).

The probability of A given B, is given by
$P(A|B)= \frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}$

From the table, the probability that an orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a mastiff dog is 2.46% and the probability that an orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a dog is 2.91% + 2.68% + 3.09% + 2.58% = 11.26%

The probability that a randomly selected orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a mastiff given that it is a dog, is given by
$\frac{P(St. \, Louis\, and\, dog-mastiff)}{P(dog)} = \frac{2.46}{11.26} \times100\%=21.85\%$

A researcher says to the respondents in a poll, “Eating too many sugary foods leads to cavities. Would you rather have soda or w

mafiozo [28]

The correct answer is B. No, the wording of the question makes respondents more likely to say water, even if they may actually prefer soda at a meal.

Explanation:

One important factor when designing questions in research is to avoid any language that might influence the answers of respondents. This recommendation was not followed in the question "Eating too many sugary foods leads to cavities. Would you rather have soda or water served with your meal?" because mentioning sugary foods, which includes soda, leads to cavities will make respondents consider soda is negative and they are more likely to choose water. This implies the wording in the question influences respondents and introduces bias, which is inappropriate. Thus, the correct answer is B.
