In a particular town, 20% of the homes have monitored security systems. If an alarm is triggered, the security system company will contact the local police to alert them of the alarm. Of all the alarm calls that the local police receive, they only have the manpower to answer 30% of the calls. Suppose we randomly sample one home that was broken into over the last month from this town. What is the probability that this home has a monitored security system and that the police answered the alarm call?

Answer:

The probability to have both = 0.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Security system home = 20% = 0.2

Manpower for security calls = 30% = 0.3

Find:

The probability to have both

Computation:

The probability to have both = P(Security system home) × P(Manpower for security calls)

The probability to have both = (0.2)(0.3)

The probability to have both = 0.06
