Using conditional probability, it is found that the probability that a randomly selected customer will get the classic wash and vacuum their car is:
B) 0.09
Conditional Probability
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
- P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
- [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
- P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this problem:
- Event A: Classic wash.
- Event B: Vacuum.
- 35% get the classic wash, hence [tex]P(A) = 0.35[/tex].
- Of those who get the classic wash, 25% vacuum their cars, hence [tex]P(B|A) = 0.25[/tex]
Then:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(B|A)P(A)[/tex]
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.25(0.35)[/tex]
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.0875[tex]
Close to 0.09, hence option B.
