Jane's share in the profit as per the amount invested by her is $39,375.

<h3>What is a Ratio?</h3>

A ratio shows us the number of times a number contains another number.

Given that Capital balances were $100,000 for John, $75,000 for Sally and $225,000 for Jane. Therefore, the ratio of the capital invested by three can be written as,

John : Sally : Jane = $100,000 : $75,000 : $225,000

John : Sally : Jane = 4 : 3 : 9

Now, the profit will be shared as per the capital invested, therefore, as per the capital invested. Thus, we can write,

4x + 3x + 9x = $70,000

16x = $70,000

x = $70,000 / 16

x = $4,375

Further, Jane's share can be written as,

Jane's share = 9x

                     = 9 × $4,375

                     = $39,375

Hence, Jane's share is $39,375.

A standard coffee mug has a capacity of 16 fluid ounces. If Annie needs to fill 26 mugs with coffee, how many total quarts of co
r-ruslan [8.4K]
First let's find how many total ounces it would be by multiplying 16 ounces by the number of mugs (26).

16 × 26 = 416

So she needs 416 ounces of coffee. Now we have to convert ounces to quarts. We need to know that there are 32 ounces per quart. So to find quarts we divide 416 ounces by 32...

416 ÷ 32 = 13 quarts

*FYI- since the mugs hold 16 ounces we can see that 16 is half of 32 so we could have just taken 1/2 of 26 mugs which is 13.

The issue of corporate tax reform has been cause for much debate in the United States. Among those in the legislature, 27% are R
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The probability Democrat is selected given that this member favors some type of corporate tax reform is 0.6309.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us suppose that,

R = Republicans

D = Democrats

I = Independents.

X = a member favors some type of corporate tax reform.

The information provided is:

P (R) = 0.27

P (D) = 0.56

P (I) = 0.17

P (X|R) = 0.34

P (X|D) = 0.41

P (X|I) = 0.25.

Compute the probability that a randomly selected member favors some type of corporate tax reform as follows:

P(X)=P(X|R)P(R)+P(X|D)P(D)+P(X|I)P(I)\\= (0.34\times0.27)+(0.41\times0.56)+(0.25\times0.17)\\=0.3639

The probability that a randomly selected member favors some type of corporate tax reform is P (X) = 0.3639.

Compute the probability Democrat is selected given that this member favors some type of corporate tax reform as follows:

P(D|X)=\frac{P(X|D)P(D)}{P(X)} =\frac{0.41\times0.56}{0.3639}=0.6309

Thus, the probability Democrat is selected given that this member favors some type of corporate tax reform is 0.6309.
