Answer: 94.8 % (approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total household in the U.S is x,

⇒ The total household who did not have a telephone in 1960 = 21.5 % of x

= 0.215 x

According to the question,

The total household who do not have a telephone in 1990 = 75.8 % less than the household in 1960 who did not have the cell phone,

= (100-75.8)% of 0.215x

= 24.2 % of 0.215x

= 0.05203x,

⇒ The household in 1990 who had a telephone = x - 0.05203x = 0.94797x

Hence, the percentage of household who has a telephone in 1990

= \frac{0.94797x}{x}\times 100

= 94.797\%\approx 94.8\%

⇒ Around 94.8% household had telephone in the US in 1990.

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are doing probability with replacement they will all be 1/6 each time.

total there is 6/6. If you draw a yellow card first it's 1/6 then replace it and draw a blue it is still 1/6. so you take those two probabilities and multiply them (1/6)*(1/6)=1/36 1*1=1 and 6*6=36.

Your answer is 1/36
