-7.2x + 8.7x = -3.5 - 10
1.5x = -13.5
x = -13.5/1.5
x = -9
45
5 divided by 5 equals 1
1 plus 4 equals 5
5 times 12 equals 45
Answer:
The probability that an applicant does not get a job if he or she has an interview is 20%.
Step-by-step explanation:
- If the applicant has been interviewed, then she/he belongs to the group of 20 people that had an interview.
- 16 of the 20 people who were interviewed were offered a job, which means that 4 of the 20 people interviewed were not offered a job.
- Then, 4/20= 20% of the people who were intervied did not get a job, which means that the <u>probability that an applicant does not get a job if he/she were interviewed is 20%</u>.
- Pat attention: this probability results from analysing the probability of getting a job once you have had an interview (this condition restricts our attention to the group of 20 people who had an interview, and not to the hole group of 500 people who did apply for the job).
