Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm sorry but your missing the questions but I found a close answer! Let A be the number of cards Alan has B be the number of cards Bill has C be the number of cards Calvin has Alan had 11 less than 2 1/2 times the number of cards bill has. is 2.5 Alan is 2.5 of bill has minus 11 A=2.5B -11 Calvin has 1 more than 1 1/2 times the number of cards bill has. is 1.5 Calvin is 1.5 of bill has plus 1 C=1.5B + 1 Alan and Calvin have the same number of cards So A=C WE plug in A  and C equations and solve for B 2.5B -11 = 1.5B + 1 (subtract 1.5B on both sides) 1B -11 = 1 (Add 11 on both sides) B = 12 If Alan and Calvin have the same number of cards, the number bill has is 12 The number of cards Alan and Calvin each have is 19 Total cards = 12 + 19 + 19 = 50 If Alan, bill, and Calvin have all the cards in the deck then the deck has 50 cards.

katovenus [111]

Complete question :

It is estimated 28% of all adults in United States invest in stocks and that 85% of U.S. adults have investments in fixed income instruments (savings accounts, bonds, etc.). It is also estimated that 26% of U.S. adults have investments in both stocks and fixed income instruments. (a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen stock investor also invests in fixed income instruments? Round your answer to decimal places. (b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult invests in stocks, given that s/he invests in fixed income instruments?

Answer:

0.929 ; 0.306

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information:

P(stock) = P(s) = 28% = 0.28

P(fixed income) = P(f) = 0.85

P(stock and fixed income) = p(SnF) = 26%

a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen stock investor also invests in fixed income instruments? Round your answer to decimal places.

P(F|S) = p(FnS) / p(s)

= 0.26 / 0.28

= 0.9285

= 0.929

(b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult invests in stocks, given that s/he invests in fixed income instruments?

P(s|f) = p(SnF) / p(f)

P(S|F) = 0.26 / 0.85 = 0.3058823

P(S¦F) = 0.306 (to 3 decimal places)

What is the value of n? n–2= 10n+ 4/2 Enter your answer in the box.
pentagon [3]

Answer:

-4 / 9

Step-by-step explanation:


 n - 2 = 10n + 4/2

 n - 10n = 4/2 + 2

 -9n = 4/2 + 4/2 ( taking LCM of 4/2 and 2)

 -9n = 8/2

 -9n = 4

    n = 4 / -9

   

   therefore n = -4 /9 ( since the minus sign doesn't make a difference whether placed at numerator or denominator) .
