Problem 16 Medium Difficulty

a. Transportation Sometimes a probability distribution is shown as a circle graph. Define the independent and dependent variables in the distribution at the right.
b. Draw the distribution as a bar graph.
c. Find $P(\text { the tank is at least half full }$ when a driver buys gas).

Answer

a) Buying of gas is Independent variable, It does not depend upon the tank condition
whether it is full or empty while tank condition of full or empty is dependent variable, It
depends upon the quantity of gas buying.
b) see graph
c) see explanation

So in part A, we have been asked about independent, valuable independent label. So independent variable is basically the variable that does not get altered or changed with the change in any other variable or form that has been given to us so we can write. It does not depend, does does interdependent or get changed Ripped changing change in I know video but okay on the dependent variable BV said In what country dependent, variable concerned Joe change. We're trying every the change in any other variable with the change in any other variable toe. The changes, if any I dough very able is ordered. Okay, so in part B, we have been told about to draw De Graaff the bar graph. This is the bar drop off the probability distribution that has been given inform off circle to us in part C. We have been told to calculate the probability that the dunk is it least at least half food. At least half built Monica Mother Kala half Phil says other people feel horse after ticket, so probability off half been probability off half bill plus probability off. Three Fort food It is possible to get how for 3/4. It's possible. So. Probability off. Harpal could not have, um, arepas half filled this 12% 12 divided by 100 plus probability off the three foot being filled. This 16%. So this will be 16 divided by 100. The yeah, Yokohama oppose. This will be 28 divided by 100 which is equal to zero point to wait on that, says the answer. Thank you.
