Answer:

D. 9

=========================

<h2>Given </h2>

Triangle with:

Base of n² -3,
Midsegment of 39.

The value of n.

<h2>Solution</h2>

As per definition of midsegment, it is connecting the midpoints of two sides and its length is half the length of the opposite side of the triangle.

So we have:

(n² - 3)/2 = 39

Solve it for n:

n² - 3 = 78
n² = 81
n = √81
n = 9

Correct choice is D.

Calculating conditional probability

The usher at a wedding asked each of the 80 guests whether they were a friend of the bride or of the groom.

Here are the results:

Bride :29

Groom :30

BOTH : 20

Given that a randomly selected guest is a friend of the groom, find the probability they are a friend of the bride.

P (bride | groom)

Answer:

The probability is $P(B|G) = \frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size is $n = 80$

The friend of the groom are $G = 30$

The friend of the groom are $B = 29$

The friend of both bride and groom are $Z = 20$

The probability that a guest is a friend of the bride is mathematically represented as

$P(B) = \frac{29}{80}$

The probability that a guest is a friend of the groom is mathematically represented as

$P(G) = \frac{30}{80}$

The probability that a guest is both a friend of the bride and a friend of the groom is mathematically represented as

$P(B \ n \ G) = \frac{20}{80}$

Now

$P(B|G)$ is mathematically represented as

$P(B|G) = \frac{P(B \ n \ G)}{P(G)}$

Substituting values

$P(B|G) = \frac{\frac{20}{80} }{\frac{30}{80} }$

$P(B|G) = \frac{2}{3}$
