An urn contains b black balls and r red balls. One of the balls is drawn at random, but when it is put back in the urn c additional balls of the same color are put in with it. Now suppose that we draw another ball.

Required:
Show that the probability that the first ball drawn was black given that the second ball drawn was red is b/(b r c).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Please see the explanation below for proof

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of choosing black ball from the bag

[tex]\frac{b}{b+r}[/tex]

Probability of choosing red ball from the bag

[tex]\frac{r}{b+r}[/tex]

After the addition of c balls of correspondent color –  

P (R2/B1) [tex]= \frac{r}{(r+b+c)}[/tex]

P (R2/B2) [tex]=\frac{r+c}{(r+b+c)}[/tex]

B1 and B2 are mutually exclusive event

P (B1/R2) = [tex]\frac{\frac{r}{(r+b+c)} *\frac{b}{b+r}}{\frac{r}{(r+b+c)}*\frac{b}{b+r} + \frac{r+c}{(r+b+c)}* \frac{b}{b+r}}[/tex]

P (B1/R2) [tex]=\frac{b}{(r+b+c)}[/tex]

Hence, Proved

What is the value of y?
What is the area, in square inches, of the rectangle

Answers

Answer:

Part A:  y = 3

Part B:  Area = 60 sq units

Step-by-step explanation:

we can create this system of equations from the information given:

8y + 2x = 34

10y + 2x = 40

now we can subtract to get:

-2y = -6

y = 3

solve for 'x':

8(3) + 2x = 34

24 + 2x = 34

2x = 10

x = 5

The Bayesian statistician Bruno de Finetti (1906–1985) began his 1973 book on probability theory with the declaration: "PROBABILITY DOES NOT EXIST." The capitals appeared in the original, so I imagine de Finetti wanted us to shout this statement. What he meant is that probability is a device for describing uncertainty from the perspective of an observer with limited knowledge; it has no objective reality. Discuss the globe tossing example from the chapter, in light of this statement. What does it mean to say "the probability of water is 0.7"?

Answers

Answer:

It means that if we select a random point around the globe, there is a 70% = 0.7 probability that it represents water.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

We know, that the planet Earth is formed 70% by water, and the globe represents this. This means, as the statement says, the if we select a random point around the globe, there is a 70% = 0.7 probability that it represents water.
