Answer:

0.071

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of wins by Alaskan Malamute = 21

Number of win by Great Pyrenees = 3

Number of wins by Siberian Husky = 18

Total number of shows = 42

We need to calculate the empirical probability that next winner will be a Great Pyrenees.

Empirical probability is defined as the ratio of the number of times a specific event occurs to total number of possibilities of all events being considered. In given case, the event that best of the show was a Great Pyrenees occurred 3 times, and total number of events were 42. So,

Empirical Probability that next winner will be a Great Pyrenees = \frac{3}{42}=0.071

Hence, the empirical probability that the next winner of "Best of Show" will be a Great Pyrenees is 0.071

1. Three friends pooled their money to purchase a new game system that costs $298. One person
iragen [17]

Answer:

First person: $107

Second person: $98

Third person: $93

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "f" the amount of money (in dollars) that the first person contributed to the purchase, "s" the amount of money (in dollars) that the second person contributed to the purchase and "t" the amount of money (in dollars) that the third person contributed to the purchase.

With the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following equations:

Equation 1 → f+s+t=298

Equation 2 → s=f-9

Equation 3 → t=f-14

Substitute the Equations 2 and 3 into the Equation 1 and then solve for "f":

f+(f-9)+(f-14)=298\\\\3f-23=298\\\\f=\frac{321}{3}\\\\f=107

Finally, substitute the value of "f" into the Equation 2 and then into the Equation 3, in order to find the values of "s" and "t".

Therefore, you get:

s=107-9\\\\s=98\\\\\\t=107-14\\\\t=93

Alexis wanted to understand whether grade level had any relationship to their opinion on extending the school day. She surveyed
MakcuM [25]

Actually there is enough information to solve this problem. First, let us find the total per row and per column.


 (see attached pic)


P(Grade 10 | opposed) with P(opposed | Grade 10)

P(Grade 10 | opposed) = Number in Grade 10 who are opposed / Total number of Opposed (column)

P(Grade 10 | opposed) = 13 / 41 = 0.3171

 

P(opposed | Grade 10) = Number in Grade 10 who are opposed / Total number in Grade 10 (row)

P(opposed | Grade 10) = 13 / 32 = 0.4063

 

Therefore:

P(Grade 10 | opposed) IS NOT EQUAL P(opposed | Grade 10), hence they are dependent events.

 

Answer:

P(Grade 10 | opposed) < P(opposed | Grade 10)
