The two-way table shows the number of books of each type in Eliza’s home. A 5-column table has 3 rows. The first column has entries hardcover, paperback, total. The second column is labeled Fiction with entries 28, 4, 32. The third column is labeled biographies with entries 2, 1, 3. The fourth column is labeled Reference with entries 10, 15, 25. The fifth column is labeled Total with entries 40, 20, 60. What is the probability that a randomly selected reference book is hardcover? 0.25 0.4 0.6 0.75

The probability of selected reference book is hardcover is 0.4.

Given A 5-column table has 3 rows.

Fiction Biographies Reference Total

Hardcover 28 2 10 40

Paperback 4 1 15 20

Total 32 3 25 60

The probability of selected reference book is hardcover means the total outcomes is the reference book and the event is hardcover.

The total of the reference books is 25

The number of reference books with hardcover is 10.

Probability rule for any event A = A outcomes / total outcomes.

P(hardcover/reference) = $\frac{10}{25}$

P(hardcover/reference) = $\frac{2}{5}$

P(hardcover/reference) = 0.4 .

Hence the probability of selected reference book is hardcover is 0.4.

The probability that a randomly selected reference book is hardcover is 0.4 ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets write the table to solve the problem

→ : Fiction : Biographies : Reference : Total

→ Hardcover : 28 : 2 : 10 : 40

→ Paperback : 4 : 1 : 15 : 20

→ Total : 32 : 3 : 25 : 60

The probability of selected reference book is hardcover means the total outcomes is the reference book and the event is hardcover

∵ The total of the reference books is 25

∵ The number of reference books with hardcover is 10

- Probability rule for any event A = A outcomes / total outcomes

∴ P(hardcover/reference) = $\frac{10}{25}$

- Simplify it by divide up and down by 5

∴ P(hardcover/reference) = $\frac{2}{5}$ = 0.4

∴ P(hardcover/reference) = 0.4

The probability that a randomly selected reference book is hardcover is 0.4

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), the experimenter looks at cards that are hidden from the subject. each card contains either a star, a circle, a wave, a cross or a square.(five shapes) as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. when the esp study described above discovers a subject whose performance appears to be better than guessing, the study continues at greater length. the experimenter looks at many cards bearing one of five shapes (star, square, circle, wave, and cross) in an order determined by random numbers. the subject cannot see the experimenter as he looks at each card in turn, in order to avoid any possible nonverbal clues. the answers of a subject who does not have esp should be independent observations, each with probability 1/5 of success. we record 1000 attempts. which of the following assumptions must be met in order to solve this problem? it's reasonable to assume normality 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)%30 approximately normal 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)% 10 approximately normal srs it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 10,000 it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 1000
