Answer:

16.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer by using the following formula:

final people=(initial people)+((initial people)*(percent increase)) which can be written as:

percent increase=((final people)-(initial people))/(initial people) so:

percent increase=(83-71)/71=0.169=16.9%

In conclusion, the percent increase is 16.9%.

Q3. A bag contains 7 red balls and 3 green balls. A ball is taken out replaced.

ycow [4]

Part (a)

There are 7 red out of 7+3 = 10 total

<h3>Answer: 7/10</h3>

==========================================================

Part (b)

We have 3 green out of 10 total

<h3>Answer: 3/10</h3>

==========================================================

Part (c)

3/10 is the probability of getting green on any selection. This is because we put the first selection back (or it is replaced with an identical copy)

So (3/10)*(3/10) = 9/100 is the probability of getting two green in a row.

<h3>Answer: 9/100</h3>

==========================================================

Part (d)

Similar to part (c) we have 7/10 as the probability of getting red on each independent selection.

(7/10)*(7/10) = 49/100

<h3>Answer: 49/100</h3>

==========================================================

Part (e)

7/10 is the probability of getting red and 3/10 is the probability of getting green. Each selection is independent of any others.

(7/10)*(3/10) = 21/100

<h3>Answer: 21/100</h3>

==========================================================

Part (f)

We have the exact same set up as part (e). Notice how (7/10)*(3/10) is the same as (3/10)*(7/10).

<h3>Answer: 21/100</h3>
