Thomas wants to invite Madeline to a party. He has an 80% chance of bumping into her at school. Otherwise, he'll call her on the phone. If he talks to her at school, he's 90% likely to ask hem to a party. However, he's only 60% likely to ask her over the phone.
This is the tree diagram that represents the probability of Thomas inviting Madeline to a party.

What is the probability of Thomas inviting Madeline to the party over the phone?

The probability of Thomas inviting Madeline to the party over the phone is 0.143.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the tree diagram below.

The events are denoted as follows:

A = Thomas bumps into Madeline at school

B = Thomas call Madeline on the phone

X = Thomas asks Madeline to the party

The information provided is:

P (A) = 0.80

P (B) = 1 - P (A) = 1 - 0.80 = 0.20

P (X|A) = 0.90

⇒ P (X'|A) = 1 - P (X|A) = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10

P (X|B) = 0.60

⇒ P (X'|B) = 1 - P (X|B) = 1 - 0.60 = 0.40

The conditional probability of event U given that another events V has already occurred is:

The law of total probability states that:

In this case we need to determine the probability that Thomas invites Madeline to the party over the phone, i.e. P (B|X).

Use the law of total probability to determine the value of P (X) as follows:

Compute the value of P (B|X) as follows:

Thus, the probability of Thomas inviting Madeline to the party over the phone is 0.143.

let f (x ) is a function and c be a positive real number,   the graph of the function g (x ) = f (cx ) is represented as follows.

when, c > 1,   the function compresses it in the x - direction.

when, 0 < c < 1, the function stretches it.

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2.

the heighest power of x in g ( x ) = (9x )2 is 2, so the parent function is square function.

the equation of parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2 and the parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

so, the functions f and g have the following relationship.

g ( x ) = f ( 9x ).

compare the function g ( x ) = f ( 9x ) with g (x ) = f (cx ).

c = 9 ( > 1 ).

so, the function g (x ) = (9x )2 compresses it in the x - direction.
