An exceptionally bright high school student has applied for two scholarships: a merit scholarship and an athletic scholarship. He estimates the following probabilities: The probability of getting the merit scholarship is 0.3 The probability of getting the athletic scholarship is 0.6 The probability of getting both scholarships is 0.08.
(a) What is the probability that he does not get the merit scholarship?
(b) What is the probability that he gets at least one of these scholarships?

a) 0.70

b) 0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Let M be the event that student get merit scholarship and A be the event that student get athletic scholarship.

P(M)=0.3

P(A)=0.6

P(M∩A)=0.08

P(not getting merit scholarships)=P(M')=?

P(not getting merit scholarships)=1-P(M)

P(not getting merit scholarships)=1-0.3

P(not getting merit scholarships)=0.7

The probability that student not get the merit scholarship is 70%.

b)

P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=P(M or A)=P(M∪A)

P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=P(M)+P(A)-P(M∩A)

P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.3+0.6-0.08

P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.9-0.08

P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.82

The probability that student gets at least one of two scholarships is 82%.

step-by-step explanation:

7.   there are 10 data points in the set.   the middle point is between 5 and 6.   the middle point in the top half is 8   and the middle point in the bottom half is 3. to find the iqr , take point 8 and subtract point 3

mid term   point 8 = 100   point 3 = 88

iqr = 100-88 = 12

final   point 8 = 93   point 3 = 78

iqr = 93 - 78 = 15

the final has the greatest iqr

6.   b - there is a high data value that causes the data set to be asymmetrical for the males: the data for males are high and asymmetrical .   there is an outlier for the males that skews the data

5.   the   iqr is a better measure of spread for the movies and basketball games.   since the basketball game has an outlier, we do not want to use standard deviation for measurement.  

3.   the exam median is much higher than the class median.   the median line is farther to the right on the exams

2.   there is no way to tell what the means are from the box and whisker plots.  

answer: answer is c!

ok i got to organize the

3/15 and 12/55

3*

aha

3*4 equals 12 but not

a: no

b:

8/24 12/35

no

gautie

it's c

5/18 = 25/90

5*5=25

18*5 = 90

hope that you!

one more happy customer!
