Answer:

   D.  0.098

Step-by-step explanation:

The probabilities of all choices must total 1, so we have ...

  p(never) + p(married) + p(widowed) + p(divorced) = 1

  p(divorced) = 1 - (p(never) + p(married) + p(widowed))

  = 1 - (0.239 + 0.595 + 0.068) = 1 - 0.902

  p(divorced) = 0.098

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

f(3) = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2

f(3) means "When x is 3" So, we substitute x with 3.

f(3) = 3^2

f(3) = 3 x 3 = 9

f(3) = 9

Malina can spend no more than $50 on groceries every week. Which graph shows how much she can spend?
Semmy [17]
I’d say: Option (B).
—The colored-in dots mean equal to. In this case since $50 is the max(limit) then Malina can spend less or exactly equal to $50 each week.
