A taste test asks people from Texas and California which pasta they prefer, brand A or brand B. This table shows the results. A person is randomly selected from those tested. What is the probability that the person is from California, given that the person prefers brand A? A. 0.55 B. 0.62 C. 0.60 D. 0.53

0.53

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the  probability that the person is from California, given that the person prefers brand A is shown below

= Brand A california ÷ Total brand A

= 90 ÷ 170

= 0.53

Hence the probability is 0.53

The last option is correct

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
