Answer:

0.48

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all. let's recall probability formula needed for solving the problem.

We know that, If the events A and B are not mutually exclusive, the probability is:  

<em>probability of event (A or B) = probability of event A + probability of event B – p(A and B). </em>

This formula will be used in calculations of this problem.

Let's consider that event A is patient visiting physical therapist; event B is patient visiting chiropractor.

P (A∩B) = 0.22 (visiting both physical therapist and chiropractor) ⇔ p(A and B)

P(B) = P(A) + 0.14 [ Probability patient visiting chiropractor is 0.14 more than probability visiting physical therapist]

Patients visiting none of these is 12%

Those who visit either therapist or chiropractor are amount to 1 - 0.12 = 0.88

Now we should use the formula mentioned in the beginning of the text:

0.88 = P(A) + P(B) - 0.22 ⇒ P(A) + P(B) = 1.1

If we replace P(B) by P(A) + 0.14 ⇒ 2P(A) + 0.14 = 1.1 ⇒ 2P(A) = 1.1 - 0.14 = 0.96

So, P(A) = 0.96/2 = 0.48 [Probability of patients visiting therapist]

Find x in the given figure if m∠AOC = 124°.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

A) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Add angles AOB and BOC to get angle AOC.

Since we know the value of AOC is 124 and AOB+BOC=AO

Then (8x+25)+(6x-13)=124.

Combine like terms to get 14x+12= 124.

Solve for x by subtracting 12 from 124, then divide the answer by 14.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

2X + 12=13x - 2x + 5

2X + 12= 11x+5

2x-11x = 5-12

-9x = -7

X = 7/9

so the answer is NO
