Answer:
37/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the coordinates of point B is the weighted average of the sum of coordinates of points A and D. Those sums are A=-6+13 = 7; D=2+14=16.
Point B is 3/4 of the way from point D to point A, so the sum of its coordinates will be ...
(3×7 +1×16)/4 = 37/4
_____
The coordinates of point B are (-4, 13.25), so their sum is 9.25 = 37/4.
Answer:
There is a 47.50% probability that the chosen senator is a Democrat.
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be formulated as the following problem:
What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.
It can be calculated by the following formula:
Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In your problem we have that:
A(what happened) is the probability of a gun owner being chosen:
There are 100 people in the survay(53 Democrats, 45 Republicans ans 2 Independents), and 40 of them have guns(19 Democrats, 21 Republicans). So, the probability of a gun owner being chosen is:
is the probability of a senator owning a gun, given that he is a Democrat. 19 of 53 Democrats own guns, so the probability of a democrat owning a gun is:
is the probability that the chosen senators is a Democrat. There are 100 total senators, 53 of which are Democrats, so:
If a senator participating in that survey was picked at random and turned out to be a gun owner, what was the probability that he or she was a Democrat?
There is a 47.50% probability that the chosen senator is a Democrat.
