Answer:

b) .474

Step-by-step explanation:

If 62% go to a four-year college, that means that those who don't represent 38% of the high-school graduates.

You pick up someone who is NOT going to a four-year college (so, he's among the 38%)... what's the chance he's in the 18% of the whole high-school graduates population that found a job?

To calculate that probability, we have to divide 18% by 38%.

P = 18% / 38% = 0.4736, so 0.474

Since we are sure he doesn't go to a four-year college, there's 47.4% of chances he finds a job.

a room has a length of 11 ft if the room has an area of at least 133 ft what does the width of the room have to be at least
MissTica

Area is the length times the width.

When you know the area and one of the dimensions, divide the area by the known dimension to find the other one.

133 / 11 = 12.09

The room needs to be at least 12.09 feet wide. ( round answer if needed).
