over the U.S. Use the excel output above to answer the following
question.
Question:
What is the probability a selected restaurant is in a city with a
population size between 50,000 and 100,000?
Given That :
Region 1 = North West (NW) |
Population 1 = Under 50,000 |
Region 2 = south West (SW) |
Population 2 = 50,000 - 100,000 |
Region 3 = North East (NE) |
Population 3 = Over 100,000 |
Region 4 = South east (SE) probability of a selected restaurant is in a city with a population size between 50,000 and 100,000 Number of restaurants in city and population size under 50,000 to 100,000 is
= 36 + 36 + 44 = 147 Total number of restaurants = 450 The probability a selected restaurants is in a city with a population size under 50,000 to 100,000 is = 147/450 = 0.3266 The probability a selected restaurants is in a city with a population size under 50,000 to 100,000 is 0.3266. |
