List A contains the numbers [20,10,30], while list B contains the numbers [10,30,20,40,30]. We choose one number from list A randomly and one number from list B randomly. What is the chance that the number we drew from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B

Respuesta :

Chance that the number we drew from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is as

Number chosen is 30: [tex]p = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Number chosen is 10: [tex]p = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Number chosen is 20:[tex]p = \frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have , List A contains the numbers [20,10,30], while list B contains the numbers [10,30,20,40,30]. We choose one number from list A randomly and one number from list B randomly. Let's assume 3 cases for above problem:

Number chosen is 20:

We compare that 20 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 , 20 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is [tex]p = \frac{2}{5}[/tex].

Number chosen is 10:

We compare that 10 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is [tex]p = \frac{1}{5}[/tex].

Number chosen is 30:

We compare that 30 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 , 20, 30,30 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is [tex]p = \frac{4}{5}[/tex].

Chance that the number we drew from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is as

Number chosen is 30: [tex]p = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Number chosen is 10: [tex]p = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Number chosen is 20:[tex]p = \frac{2}{5}[/tex]
