7. Alice works for an engineering company.

A working day is chosen at random.

From keeping a record over the last year, Alice knows that, for this working day,

• the probability that she travels to work by car is 0·7,

• the probability that she arrives at work before 8:00 a.m. is 0·4,
• her time of arrival is independent of how she travels to work.

(a) Using the above information, draw and fully label a complete tree diagram.
You must include all probabilities. [4]

10. A farmer knows that the time, t, taken by goats to eat all the grass in a particular field is inversely
proportional to the number of goats, g, in the field.

When there are 25 goats in the field, the time taken to eat all the grass is 36 days.

You may assume that all the goats eat grass at the same rate.

(a) Find a formula for the time, t, in terms of the number of goats, g. [3]

(b) Hence, find the time taken for all of the grass to be eaten when there are 20 goats in the
field. [1]

(c) The farmer needs the grass to last for at least 40 days.
What is the greatest number of goats that should be allowed in the field? [2]
