An ad agency is developing a campaign to promote a business opening in a new mall development. To develop an appropriate mailing

list, they decide to purchase lists of credit card holders from MasterCard and American Express. Combining the lists, they find the following: 40 percent of the people on the list have only a MasterCard and 10 percent have only an American Express card. Another 20 percent hold both MasterCard and American Express. Finally, 30 percent of those on the list have neither card. Suppose a person on the list is known to have a MasterCard. What is the probability that person also has an American Express card?

Answer:

The answer is 1/3 or 0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the following ocurrences:

A: A person has a MasterCard

B: A person has an American Express

The data says:

P(A∩B) = 0.2

P(A without B) = 0.4

P(B without A) = 0.1

Then, P(A) =  P(A∩B) +P(A without B) = 0.2+0.4 = 0.6

By conditional probability theory:

P (B/A) = P(A∩B) / P(A) = 0.2 / 0.6 = 1/3 = 0.33

Thus

P(B/A) = 1/3 = 0.33

1/7 (x-3) = 5/7 ? solve for x.
yuradex [85]
1/7 (x - 3) = 5/7
1/7x - 3/7 = 5/7
1/7x - 3/7 + 3/7 = 5/7 + 3/7
1/7x = 8/7
1/7x(7) = 8/7(7)
X = 56/7
X = 8

R^2+3r+5-r^3/r is a quadratic/cubic/linear polynomial?
Sergeu [11.5K]

r^2+3r+5-r^3/r is  a linear polynomial

S<u>tep-by-step explanatio</u>n:

based on the highest power of the variables of a polynomial, it can be classified as linear,polynomial, quadratic polynomial,cubic polynomial etc.

In a linear polynomial, the highest power of the variable is 1. The general form of a linear polynomial is ax+b

In a quadratic polynomial, the highest power of the variables is 2.The general form of quadratic polynomial is ax^2+bx+c

In a cubic polynomial,the highest power of variable is 3.The general form of cubic polynomial is ax^3+bx^2+cx+d.

Take the given question and simplify it

r^2+3r+5-r^3/r=r^2+3r+5-r^2\\=3r+5

It is of the form ax+b. Hence it is  a linear polynomial.

If w = -2 and v = -8, which of the following expressions shows the values correctly substituted in for the variables in the expr
Ahat [919]

Answer:

<em>(-2)2 - (-8) + 1</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

When you substitute values into an algebraic equation, you need to input the values exactly how they are given. "w" must go where there are "w"s, and "v" must go where the "v"s are, otherwise you will get an incorrect answer. All values must also carry over their signs--they are one unit--and must be inserted as such, which is why - (-8) is correct, but not - (8) or - 8. (This is because those two negatives will cancel each other out and become +8 when solving). The parenthesis around the values are important because they protect the original values of the variables, which is why (-2)2 is correct. In the case of (-2)2, it also signifies that they are "attached" by multiplication, and when solving would become -4. Without signifying that the variables are separate from the rest of the equation via the parenthesis, it becomes very easy to solve it incorrectly.
