The probability that comic book reader in a particular city prefers comics published by company A is 25%. The probability that comic book reader in the city's is male 70%

Complete question is;

The probability that a comic book reader in a particular city prefers comics published by Company A is 25%. The probability that a comic book reader in the city is male is 70%. If the probability of a comic book reader in the city being a male, given that the reader prefers Company A's comics, is 40%, what is the probability of the reader preferring Company A's comics, given that the reader is a male?

0.14 or 14%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the probability that the comic book readers prefers comics published by company A is 25%.

Thus; P(A) = 25% = 0.25

Also, we are told that the probability that comic book reader is male 70%.

Thus; P(M_r) = 70% = 0.7

We are also told that the probability of a comic book reader being a male, provided that the reader prefers Company A's comics, is 40%.

Thus; P(A|M_r) = 40% = 0.4

To find the probability of the reader preferring Company A's comics, provided that the reader is a male, we will apply baye's theorem.

Thus;

P(M_r|A) = [P(A|M_r) × P(A)]/P(M)

P(M_r|A) = (0.4 × 0.25)/0.7

P(M_r|A) ≈ 0.14

your answer would be b

step-by-step explanation:

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
