A snack stand offers 6 choices of sandwiches and 3 choices of beverages. How many combinations of 1 sandwich and 1 beverage are possible?

Step-by-step explanation:

It offers 6 choices of sandwiches and for each choice (among these 6) 3 choices of beverages

then

the number of possible combinations of 1 sandwich and 1 beverage is :

6×3 = 18

85.560%

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560
