Solution
Number of weeks in a year = 52 weeks
If in a normal year when each package of flea treatment lasts for 4 weeks, then in a year there Jim's dog will have to be treated for
Where as, when the fleas are bad in a year, the treatment lasts for only 3 weeks.
Then in a year Jim's dog would get
So Jim's dog will get 17- 13 =4 treatments more.
4 treatments that are made in 3 weeks each will be 4×3 =12 weeks more treatment
Answer:
0.335
Step-by-step explanation:
1. There is a 30 percent chance of a flight being delayed because of icy weather ,then the probability of being delayed is 0.3 and of being not delayed is 0.7.
2. If a flight is delayed because of icy weather, there is a 10 percent chance the flight will also be delayed because of a mechanical problem, then the probability of being delayed is 0.1 and the probabilty of not being delayed is 0.9.
3. If a flight is not delayed because of icy weather, there is a 5 percent chance that it will be delayed because of a mechanical problem (MP), then the probability of being delayed is 0.05 and the probabilty of not being delayed is 0.95. (See attached probability tree)
Delayed of icy weather - 0.3
Delayed of MP when weather is not icy - 0.7·0.05=0.035
Now, if one flight is selected at random from the airport in January, the probability that the flight selected will have at least one of the two types of delays is
0.3+0.035=0.335
