Answer:

44.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, we proceed as follows.

we use the probability equation below;

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

Applying the above to the scenario at hand;

P(red | car) = P(red and car) / P(car)

P(red and car) = 40% or simply 40/100 = 0.4

P(car) = 90% = 90/100 = 0.9

P(red | car) = 0.4/0.9

P(red | car) = 0.4444 which is = 44.44% ; to the nearest tenth of a percent = 44.4%

Take bus=5 times walk
b=5w
b+w=24
sub 5w for b
5w+w=24
6w=24
divide both sides by 6
w=4

sub back
b=5w
b=5(4)
b=20

bus-walk=20-4=16

answer is 16 more take the bus than walk

Solve the equation with quadratic formula<br> y^2+3y-10=0
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

y = 2 and y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the coefficient is not greater than 1, you can simply solve the problem without the quadratic formula.

By using the "x" method, you must figure out what multiplies to give you -10, and adds to give you 3

So, you find your values as 5 and -2. You then set these values equal to zero in terms of Y. As so---- (y+5)=0 and (y-2)=0

Then, you solve out to get your answer! Y is equal to -5 and 2
