Pollsters are concerned about declining levels of cooperation among persons contacted in surveys. A pollster contacts 81 people

in the 18-21 age bracket and finds that 69 of them respond and 12 refuse to respond. When 301 people in the 22-29 age bracket are contacted, 282 respond and 19 refuse to respond. Assume that 1 of the 382 people is randomly selected. Find the probability of getting someone in the 18-21 age bracket or someone who agreed to respond.

Answer:

Prob = 95.0%

Explanation:

There are 382 people in total

69 respond and are in the 18-21 age bracket

12 refuse to respond and are in the 18-21 age bracket

282 respond and are in the 22-29 age bracket

19 refuse to respond and are in the 22-29 age bracket

Then, the number of people that are in the 18-21 age bracket or agreed to respond is

69 + 12 + 282 = 363

Therefore, the probability of getting someone in the 18-21 age bracket or someone who agreed to respond is

P = 363/382

P = 0.9502

P = 95.0 %

Find the values of x and y for which the lines are parallel.
bearhunter [10]
The answer:  " x = 68, y = 72 " .
____________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________
46 + (x - 3) + (y - 3) = 180 .

46 + 1(x - 3) + 1(y-3) = 180 .

46 + 1x - 3 + 1y - 3 = 180 .

46 - 3 - 3 + 1x + 1y = 180 .

40 + x + y = 180 ;

Subtract "40" from EACH SIDE of the equation:
______________________________________
 40 + x + y - 40 = 180 - 40 ;

 to get:

x + y = 140 ;
_____________________________________
Now:
_____________________________________
65 = (x - 3) ;


↔  x - 3 = 65 ;

Add "3" to EACH SIDE of the equation;

    x - 3 + 3 = 65 + 3 ;

to get:
 
           x = 68 .
______________________________
Now:

Since:  "x + y = 140" ;

Let us plug in our known value, "68" ;  for "x" ;

to solve for "y" ;
__________________________________
   x + y = 140 ;
 
  68 + y = 140 ;

↔ y + 68 = 140 ;

Subtract "68" from EACH SIDE of the equation; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" ;
______________________________________________
   y + 68 - 68 = 140 = 68 ;

                  y = 72 .
______________________________________________
So,  solve for "x" and "y".

x = 68, y = 72 .
