1) 9+2 = 11
2) 77 / 11 = 7
3) ratio of nurces is 9 so 7*9=63 nurses
4) ratio of doctors: 2 so 7*2= 14 doctors

Answer:

a) 0.06 = 6% probability that a person has both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

b) 0.94 = 94% probability that a person does NOT have both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to solve this question treating these events as Venn probabilities.

I am going to say that:

Event A: Person has type A blood.

Event B: Person has Rh- factor.

43% of people have type O blood

This means that $P(A) = 0.43$

15% of people have Rh- factor

This means that $P(B) = 0.15$

52% of people have type O or Rh- factor.

This means that $P(A \cup B) = 0.52$

a. Find the probability that a person has both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

This is

$P(A \cap B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cup B)$

With what we have

$P(A \cap B) = 0.43 + 0.15 - 0.52 = 0.06$

0.06 = 6% probability that a person has both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

b. Find the probability that a person does NOT have both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

1 - 0.06 = 0.94

0.94 = 94% probability that a person does NOT have both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

David's money is three times Siti's money. Farid has RM 150 less than Siti. The total amount of their money is RM 2 000. How muc

mart [117]

Answer:

Siti's money = RM 430

David = RM 1,290

Farid = RM 280

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Siti's money = x

David = 3x

Farid = x - 150

Total of their money = RM 2 000

x + 3x + (x - 150) = 2000

4x + x - 150 = 2000

5x = 2000 + 150

5x = 2,150

x = 2,150/5

x = RM 430

Siti's money = x

= RM 430

David = 3x

= 3(430)

= RM 1,290

Farid = x - 150

= 430 - 150

= RM 280

If cot theta= 4/3, find csc theta

Marrrta [24]

Answer: Option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

The trigonometric identity needed is:

$csc^2\theta=cot^2\theta+1$

Knowing that $cot\theta=\frac{4}{3}$ :

Substitute it into $csc^2\theta=cot^2\theta+1$ :

$csc^2\theta=(\frac{4}{3})^2+1$

Simplify the expression:

$csc^2\theta=(\frac{4}{3})^2+1\\\\csc^2\theta=\frac{16}{9}+1\\\\csc^2\theta=\frac{25}{9}$

Solve for $csc\theta$ . Apply square root at both sides of the expression:

$\sqrt{csc^2\theta}=\±\sqrt{\frac{25}{9}}$

$csc\theta=\frac{5}{3}$
