You are about to visit Jamestown in North Dakota, to see the world's largest buffalo monument. You know that it snows $25\%$ of

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

The probability that it is actually snowing in North Dakota is 17%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The data in the question is not properly stated. The complete question is therefore represented to correct this as follows:

You are about to visit Jamestown in North Dakota, to see the world's largest buffalo monument. You know that it snows 25% of the time in North Dakota, and you are thinking about bringing your parka. It turns out that you have three friends who live in North Dakota, but they are not very trustworthy: Each tells the truth 2/3 of the time, and lies for the remaining 1/3. You call your three friends, and each friend tells you that it is indeed snowing in North Dakota. Given this information, what is the probability that it is actually snowing in North Dakota?

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

The probability that it is actually snowing in North Dakota can be calculated using the following formula:

Pa = Pr * Pt ........................... (1)

Where;

Pa = the probability that it is actually snowing in North Dakota = ?

Pr = the prior probability that it snows in North Dokota = 25%, or 0.25

Pt = Probability of saying the truth that it snows = 2/3 = 0.67

Substituting the value into equation (1), we have:

Pa = 0.25 * 0.67

Pa = 0.17, or 17%

Therefore, the probability that it is actually snowing in North Dakota is 17%.

Cheese costs $4.40 per pound. Find the cost per kilogram. (1kg = 2.2lb)

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The cost is $9.70 per kilogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved by a rule of three.

In a rule of three problem, the first step is identifying the measures and how they are related, if their relationship is direct of inverse.

When the relationship between the measures is direct, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure is going to increase too. In this case, the rule of three is a cross multiplication.

When the relationship between the measures is inverse, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure will decrease. In this case, the rule of three is a line multiplication.

In this problem, the measures are the weight of the cheese and the price. As the weight increases, so does the price. It means that this is a direct rule of three.

Solution:

The problem states that cheese costs $4.40 per pound. Each kg has 2.2 pounds. How many kg are there in 1 pound. So:

1 pound - xkg

2.2 pound - 1 kg

$2.2x = 1$
