The percentages represent all toys sold 3-5 15% 10-12 what is the probabu somone in the folowning ae ranges someone in the following age ranges? (e) 6 years old or older (b) 12 years old or younger (c) between 6 and 12 years old (d) between 3 and 9 years old A child between 10 and 12 years old looks at this probablity distribution and asks, "why are people more Skely to buy t r kd in y age o-12 yo may include cni stribuo The 13-and-older category may include children up to 17 or 18 years old.

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

(a) P(6 years or older) = 0.29 + 0.13 +0.19 = 0.61

(b) P(12 years or younger) = 1 - 0.31 = 0.69

(c) P(between 6 and 12 years) = 0.29 + 0.09 = 0.38

(d) P(between 3 and 9) = 0.15 + 0.29 = 0.44

A child between 10 and 12 years old looks at this probability distribution and asks, "Why are people more likely to buy toys for kids older than I am (13 and over) than for kids in my age group
b. 13-and-older category may include children up to 17 or 18 years old. This is a smaller category.
