Question

at a local coffee shop, the manager has determined that 56% of drink orders are for specialty espresso drinks and 44% are for plain coffee. the manager also noted that 40% of customers order food. for customers who purchase the specialty espresso drinks, 35% also purchase a food item, and for customers who purchase plain coffee, 30% also purchase a food item. the tree diagram displays the possible outcomes of orders at this coffee shop. which probability is represented by label 3 in the tree diagram? 0.44 0.56 0.65 0.70

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the problem

We know that there are two types of drink orders: specialty espresso drinks (56%) and plain coffee (44%). Label 3 is on the branch for non - espresso (plain coffee) drinks.

Step2: Determine the probability

Since 44% of drink orders are for plain coffee, the probability represented by label 3 (which is the probability of a customer ordering plain coffee) is \(0.44\)

Answer:

0.44
