1 A big company wants to give out free advertisement stickers for vehicle owners who drive
through one road near its office. To save cost and time, the company wants to estimate the number of cars, lorries and busses that will pass through the road from 9am to 1pm so that the number of stickers to be printed can be determined. So, a survey was done for 1 hour at the road. The following is the result of the survey:

(c) If a vehicle going through the road is selected at random during that 1-hour’s time, find the probability that the vehicle is (i) a car. (ii) a bus. (d) If the company is only interested in giving the stickers to owners of cars and buses only, predict the total number of cars and buses that will pass through the road from 9am to 1pm in a certain day.

(a) If she ordered 1000 of those cookies, predict how many of those cookies cannot be served because they are burnt.
(b) If a guest is randomly chosen from the 50 that has replied, calculate the probability that the guest will not be able to come to her function. (c) Predict the number of guests that may not be able to come to her function. (d) If a guest is randomly chosen from the 50 that has replied, calculate the probability that the guest will come with a partner. (e) Predict the number of guests that will come to her function.
