(39,469.2 - 39,007.2)/17.5 will give you miles per gallon
The total miles driven were 462 miles/17.5 gal = 26.4 miles per gallon

Sally has 2 cats and each cat eats 1/4 of a tin of cat food each day.

Mashutka [201]

If one cat eats 1/4 of a tin per day then two cats eat 1/2 of a tin per day.

We have 9 tins so if each day cats eat 1/2 we have to divide 9 with 1/2 and we get 18 which is for how many days she can feed the cats until she runs out of food.

Hope this helps.

One household is to be selected at random from a town. The probability that the household has a cat is 0.20.2 . The proba

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

There is a 50% probability that the household has a dog, given that the household has a cat.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this problem building the Venn's diagram of these probabilities.

I am going to say that:

A is the probability that a household has a cat.

B is the probability that a household has a dog.

We have that:

$A = a + (A \cap B)$

In which a is the probability that a household has a cat but not a dog and $A \cap B$ is the probability that a household has both a cat and a dog.

By the same logic, we have that:

$B = b + (A \cap B)$

The probability that the household has a cat or a dog is 0.5

$a + b + (A \cap B) = 0.5$

The probability that the household has a dog is 0.4

$B = 0.4$

$B = b + (A \cap B)$

$b = 0.4 - (A \cap B)$

The probability that the household has a cat is 0.2.

$A = 0.2$

$A = a + (A \cap B)$

$a = 0.2 - (A \cap B)$

So

$a + b + (A \cap B) = 0.5$

$0.2 - (A \cap B) + 0.4 - (A \cap B) + (A \cap B) = 0.5$

$A \cap B = 0.1$

What is the probability that the household has a dog, given that the household has a cat?

20% of the households have a cat, and 10% have both a cat and a dog. So

$P = \frac{A \cap B}{A} = {0.1}{0.2} = 0.5$

There is a 50% probability that the household has a dog, given that the household has a cat.
