1. in some cultures it is good to have feet smane
cultures it is good to have feet smaller than size 5. if the probability of having feet
smaller than size 5 is 0.12, find the probability that the
size 5 is 0.12, find the probability that the 3rd person you stop walking down the
street is the first to have a foot size smaller than 5.

.093 .

Step-by-step explanation:

the probability of having feet smaller than size 5 is 0.12,

the probability of having feet longer  than size 5 will be  1 - 0.12 = 0.88

The probability that the 3rd person  walking down the

street is the first to have a foot size smaller than 5

=  probability of first person having feet longer  than size 5 x probability of  second person having  feet longer  than size 5 x probability of third person having feet smaller  than size 5

= .88 x .88 x .12

= .093 .

to find the total number of combinations, multiply the quantity of each item by each other:

2 pairs of shoes x 3 pairs of shorts = 6 different combinations.
