Dining Probability Dining Scenario Probabilities Thesis

The same proportion exists concerning the probability of going to a non-vegetarian restaurant which serves alcohol.

Objectives expected

The anticipated outcome of this discussion is to provide a clearer picture of the variables impacting the ultimate dining decision on a weighted basis. The objective of deciding upon a dining destination which is most amenable to all parties is intended to be met here by measuring against one another the probabilities resultant from individual preferences.

Certain aspects of the scenario remain inconclusive however, even given these measurements. It is clear that the 1 in 4 probability in both scenarios relating to the absence of alcohol are undermined by the 3 in 4 probability in both scenarios related to the presence of alcohol.However, in all instances relating to the decision to eat in a vegetarian or non-vegetarian restaurant, there is a 1 in 2 probability that makes it unclear how the two couples are likely to decide.

It is at this juncture in the scenario analysis that it is rational to desire more contextual information regarding the degree of preference on the part of those non-vegetarians whom it may be logically deduced have fewer dining limitations. Indeed, the scenario makes no specification concerning non-vegetarians and only makes explicit mention of the vegetarian parties. It is thus that, prospectively, the vegetarian needs will inherently subsume non-vegetarian needs. This suggests….....
