Answer:

a. 0.68 or 68%

b. 0.32 or 32%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The probability that a subscriber rented a car during the past 12 months for  business or personal reasons (P(R)) is given by the probability that they rented a car for business reasons (P(B)=0.19), added to the probability that they rented for personal reasons (P(P)=0.52), subtracted by the probability that they rented for both reasons (P(B and P) = 0.03):

P(R)=P(B)+P(P)-P(B\cap P)\\P(R) = 0.19+0.52-0.03\\P(R)=0.68

b. The probability that a subscriber did not rent a car during the past 12 months  for either business or personal reasons (P(N)) is 100% minus the probability that they rented a car (P(R) = 0.68).

P(N) = 1-P(R) = 1-0.68\\P(N) =0.32

Answer:

11. 78

12. 4x² - 3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

11. Sum of n whole numbers = ½(n² + n)

Multiply

½*n² + ½*n

= n²/2 + n/2

To find the sum of the first 12 whole number, substitute 12 for n into the equation.

= 12²/2 + 12/2

= 144/2 + 12/2

= 72 + 6

= 78

12. Area of trapezoid = ½(a + b)*h

Where,

a = 5x - 4

b = 3x + 2

h = x + 1

Area = ½(5x - 4 + 3x + 2)*(x + 1)

Area = ½(8x - 2)*(x + 1)

Area = ½[8x(x + 1) -2(x + 1)]

= ½[8x² + 8x - 2x - 2]

Add like terms

= ½(8x² - 6x - 2)

= ½(8x²) - ½(6x) - ½(2)

= 4x² - 3x - 1
