This devaluation drastically raised the price of imported products. According to a survey conducted by AC Nielsen in April 2002, 68% of the consumers in Argentina were buying fewer products than before the devaluation, 24% were buying the same number of products, and 8% were buying more products. Furthermore, in a trend toward purchasing less-expensive brands, 88% indicated that they had changed the brands they purchased. Suppose the following complete set of results were reported. Use the following data to answer this question. Number of Products Purchased Brands Purchased Fewer Same More Total Same 10 14 24 48 Changed 262 82 8 352 Total 272 96 32 400 What is the probability that a consumer selected at random purchased the same number or more products than before?

Forty five percent of the sales are chocolate, while 30% are strawberry, with the rest vanilla flavored. Sales are by the cone or the cup. The percentages of cones sales for chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla, are 75%, 60%, and 40%, respectively. For a randomly selected sale, define the following events: = chocolate chosen = strawberry chosen = vanilla chosen = ice cream on a cone ice cream in a cup Find the probability that the ice cream was strawberry flavor, given that it was sold on a cone.
