Answer:

≈ 13.98%

Step-by-step explanation:

As the total population is 5769 in the initial period, you must find the percentage that repesents 4963 that is the expected population.

4963/5769=0.8602

Then you multiply it by 100 to transform it into percentage

0.8602*100=86.02%

Then it's just necesary to subtract that from 100% and that numbers is the percentage of decrease

100% - 86.02% = 13.98%

Also you can say that is approximately  14%

In a group of 28 students, 12 study both Art and Biology.
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Use conditional probability:

P(B | A) = P(B and A) / P(A)

P(B | A) = (12/28) / P(A)

We need to find the probability that a student studies art.

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A and B)

24/28 = P(A) + (12+12)/28 − 12/28

P(A) = 12/28

P(B | A) = (12/28) / (12/28)

P(B | A) = 1

What this means is that all of the students who study art also study biology.
