of 4,200 male applicants, 60% were accepted by the university, and of these, 40% subsequently enrolled. Additionally, from a pool of 3,800 female applicants, 40% were accepted by the university, and of these, 45% subsequently enrolled.

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.

In parallelogram LMNO, what is the measure of angle N?<br><br> 50°<br> 70°<br> 110°<br> 130°
belka [17]

we know that

In a parallelogram opposite angles are congruent and consecutive angles are supplementary.

So

m∠O=m∠M

m∠L=m∠N

m∠O+m∠L=180

Step 1

Find the value of x

(x+20)+(2x+10)=180\\ 3x+30=180\\ 3x=180-30\\ x=\frac{150}{3} \\ \\ x=50\ degrees

Step 2

Find the value of angle L

m∠L=(2x+10)

m∠L=(2*50+10)

m∠L=110\ degrees

Remember that

m∠N=m∠L

m∠N=110\ degrees

therefore

the answer is

the measure of the angle N is equal to 110\ degrees
