Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the probability of no rain tomorrow, based on a stated 30 percent chance of rain. It includes mathematical reasoning related to probability calculations.

Discussion Character

  • Mathematical reasoning

Main Points Raised

  • One participant calculates the probability of no rain tomorrow as 1 - 0.30, resulting in 0.70 or 70 percent.
  • Subsequent posts shift focus away from the original question, discussing unrelated topics such as a picture and the passing of Erin Moran.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

There is no clear consensus on the original probability question, as the discussion quickly diverges into unrelated topics.

Contextual Notes

The initial mathematical reasoning is presented, but the thread does not explore further implications or assumptions related to the probability calculation.

There is a 30 percent chance of rain tomorrow. What is the probability of no rain tomorrow.

Solution:

Let P = probability

P(no rain tomorrow) = 1 - P(rain tomorrow)

P(no rain tomorrow) = 1 - 0.30

P(no rain tomorrow) = 0.70 or 70 percent

Right?

Thanks for the Fonzie picture. You know that Erin Moran died a few weeks ago.

Yeah...it was sad what became of her...but I can only hope she was relatively happy no matter her circumstances.

I had a crush on her back in the 70s. I was 12 years old and Erin 16 in 1977. I started liking girls beyond friendship level after turning 12.
