<span> 20. Let x represent the amount of books he had:
x + 6 = 1.12x

Subtract x from both sides:

Divide both sides by 0.12; x = 50

<span>28. $6 + 0.025*$6 = $6 + $0.15 = $6.15 </span>

You are asked to find the missing value in

... 40 + ? = 70

given that it is also the solution to

... ? + 5 = 35

... 40 + ? - 40 = 70 - 40

... ? = 30 . . . . the missing value

_____

You can check to see if this also satisfies the equation

... 30 + 5 = 35 . . . . . . . true

DENIUS [597]
Let BS be the event that the patient survives bypass surgery. Let H be the event that the heart damage will heal. Then P(BS) = 0.60, and also we have a conditional probability: GIVEN that the patient survives, the probability that the heart damage will heal is 0.5, that is P(H|BS) = 0.5 We want to know P(BS and H). Using the formula of the conditional probability: P(H and BS) = P(H|BS)·P(BS) = (0.6)(0.5) = 0.3
