Answer: Our required probability is 0.1695.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of male applicants = 4200

Number of female applicants = 3800

So, total number of applicants = 4200+3800 = 8000

Probability of male entered and subsequently enrolled is given by

0.4\times 0.4=0.16

Probability of female entered and subsequently enrolled is given by

0.4\times 0.45\\\\=0.18

Number of male entered and subsequently enrolled is given by

0.16\times 4200\\\\=672

Number of female entered and subsequently enrolled is given by

0.18\times 3800\\\\=684

So, Probability that a student who applied  for admission will be accepted by the university and subsequently will enroll is given by

\dfrac{672+684}{8000}\\\\=\dfrac{1356}{8000}\\\\=0.1695

Hence, our required probability is 0.1695.

A driver driving a business trip of 240 miles would have reached his destination if he'd been able to drive 12 mph faster than h
mariarad [96]

The average speed of his trip is = 12 mile/ hour

The total distance covered by the driver = 240 miles

The rate at which he traveled = 12 miles per hour

Therefore, the time he used to cover his distance

= 240/12

= 20 hrs

But average speed = distance/ time

= 240/ 20

= 12 miles/ hour

Therefore, the average speed of his trip is = 12 mile/ hour

What will the length of segment I' J' be?<br>​
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

5.333

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of dilated I' J' we need to dilate the shape.

To do this you multiply each coordinate by 8/3.

Ex: (x,y) ---> (8/3x, 8/3y)

H: (0,3) ---> (8/3*0, 8/3*3)

I: (1,1) ---> (8/3*1, 8/3*1)

J: (3,1) ---> (8/3*3, 8/3*1)

K: (2,5) ---> (8/3*2, 8/3*5)

Now we plot this. (Picture attached)

The new I' coordinate: (2.667, 2.667)

The new J' coordinate: (8, 2.667)

The new length would be 8 - 2.667 so we can find the distance between the two points.

Note we are subtracting the y coordinates and not x because x coordinates represent height and y represents length

8 - 2.667 equals 5.333

So the length of segment I' J' will be 5.333
