Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's denote the probabilities as following:
Probability that a teenager has a sister:
P(A) = 12/28
Probability that a teenager has a brother:
P(B) = 7/28
Probability that a teenager has both a sister and a brother:
P(A⋂B) = 3/28
Probability that a selected teenager has a sister also has a brother, or in other words, he/she has a brother, given he/she had a sister:
P(B|A)
Let's apply the formula of conditional probability to work out P(B|A)
P(B|A) = P(A⋂B)/P(A) = (3/28)/(12/28) = (3*28)/(12*28) = 3/12 = 1/4
=> Option C is correct
Hope this helps!
Answer:
$8.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement gives two relations between the prices of two kinds of tickets. These can be used to write a system of equations for the ticket prices.
__
<h3>setup</h3>
Let 'a' and 'c' represent the prices of adult and children's tickets, respectively. The given relations can be expressed as ...
a - c = 1.50 . . . . . . . adult tickets are $1.50 more
175a +325c = 3512.5 . . . . . total revenue from ticket sales.
__
<h3>solution</h3>
We are only interested in the price of an adult ticket, so we can eliminate c to give one equation we can solve for 'a'. Using the first equation, an expression for c is ...
c = a -1.50
Substituting that into the second equation, we have ...
175a +325(a -1.50) = 3512.50
500a -487.50 = 3512.50 . . . . . . simplify
500a = 4000 . . . . . . add 487.50
a = 8 . . . . . . . . . divide by 500
An adult ticket costs $8.
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If you do not want to read the explanation go the the next part in bold
Ok so the shorter leg of the triangle is a radius of the circle. ( This is indicated by the point in the middle of the circle.) for the hypotenuse we are given one part of the length (2) The other part also happens to be a radius ( remember that a radius is a line that starts from the center of the triangle to any point of the circumference. ) Also remember that the radius is equal to 3. That being said the hypotenuse = 2+3 which equals 5.
This triangle then happens to be a right triangle. ( A triangle formed by a tangent line and a radius is a right triangle.) This means that we can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x.
Below here is where the work is shown
a² + b² = c². where a and b = legs and c = hypotenuse. We are given the hypotenuse (5) and a leg (3) So we plug in what we are given and solve for the missing information. 5² = 3² + b²
5² = 25
3² = 9
we would then have 25 = 9 + b²
Next we subtract 9 from each side
25 - 9 = 16
9 - 9 cancels out
Now we have 16 = b²
finally we want to get rid of the ²
To do so we take the square root of each side
we're left with b = 4 which means that x = 4
The leading coefficient is in the term with the highest degree.
So its -5.
