We figure 25 people will attend if it rains and 70 people will attend if it does not rain. The weather forecast indicates that there is a 20% chance of rain that day. What is the expected number of people who will attend the party?

Respuesta :

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of 70 + 80% of 25 = 14 + 20 = 34.

Answer:

61

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming a linear relationship between the percent chance for rain and the number of attendees, the number is 20% of the way from 70 (0% chance) to 25 (100% chance).

The expected number of people with a 20% chance of rain would be 61.
