Answer: x=11, y=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional, so:

\frac{x-2}{6}=\frac{15}{10}\\\\\frac{x-2}{6}=\frac{3}{2}\\\\x-2=9\\\\x=11

\frac{y+3}{8}=\frac{15}{10}\\\\\frac{y+3}{8}=\frac{3}{2}\\\\y+3=12\\\\y=9

A survey is being conducted in a county where 62% of the voters are Democrats and 38% are Republican. (a) What is the probabilit
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

0.3844 = 38.44% probability that two independently surveyed voters would both be Democrats

Step-by-step explanation:

For each voter, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the voter is a Democrat, or he is not. The probability of the voter being a Democrat is independent of other voters. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

62% of the voters are Democrats

This means that p = 0.62

(a) What is the probability that two independently surveyed voters would both be Democrats?

This is P(X = 2) when n = 2. So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(0.62)^{2}.(0.38)^{0} = 0.3844

0.3844 = 38.44% probability that two independently surveyed voters would both be Democrats

F(x) = -1/3 x + 7 determine the input that would give an output value of 2/3
-BARSIC- [3]
Ur output value is f(x).....so to do this problem u need to sub in 2/3 for f(x) and solve for the input value which is x

f(x) = -1/3x + 7
2/3 = -1/3x + 7 ...multiply everything by 3
2 = -x + 21
2 - 21 = - x
- 19 = -x
19 = x <== ur output
