A = event the person got the class they wanted
B = event the person is on the honor roll
P(A) = (number who got the class they wanted)/(number total)
P(A) = 379/500
P(A) = 0.758
There's a 75.8% chance someone will get the class they want
Let's see if being on the honor roll changes the probability we just found
So we want to compute P(A | B). If it is equal to P(A), then being on the honor roll does not change P(A).
---------------
A and B = someone got the class they want and they're on the honor roll
P(A and B) = 64/500
P(A and B) = 0.128
P(B) = 144/500
P(B) = 0.288
P(A | B) = P(A and B)/P(B)
P(A | B) = 0.128/0.288
P(A | B) = 0.44 approximately
This is what you have shown in your steps. This means if we know the person is on the honor roll, then they have a 44% chance of getting the class they want.
Those on the honor roll are at a disadvantage to getting their requested class. Perhaps the thinking is that the honor roll students can handle harder or less popular teachers.
Regardless of motivations, being on the honor roll changes the probability of getting the class you want. So Alex is correct in thinking the honor roll students have a disadvantage. Everything would be fair if P(A | B) = P(A) showing that events A and B are independent. That is not the case here so the events are linked somehow.
The solutions of the function are:
- When f(x) = -4, the solution is -4
- When f(x) = -2, the solution is -5/2
- When f(x) = 0, the solution is -1
<h3>How to solve for the equation </h3>
The equation is given as
When x = -4
3/4 * -4 -1
= -12/4 - 1
= -4
When x = -2
3/4*(-4) - 1
= -6/4 - 1/1
Take the lcm
-10/4
= -5/2
When x = 0
3/4(0) - 1
= -1
When f(x) = -4, the solution is -4
When f(x) = -2, the solution is -5/2
When f(x) = 0, the solution is -1

Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
3 - 5 = -2
Place the dot on -2 on the number line that is on your problem as the answer. To show the steps on the number line, use your jumps to go back. For example, your starting point will be on 3, and then use your jumps to go back by 5; that means you go into the negatives. For this case, it is -2.
