out of some students appeared in an examination 80% passed in mathematics 75% passed in english and 5% failed in both subjects i

Advocard [28]

Answer:

5000 students appeared in the examination.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using Venn probabilities.

I am going to say that:

Event A: Passed in Mathematics

Event B: Passed in English.

5% failed in both subjects

This means that 100 - 5 = 95% pass in at least one, which means that $P(A \cup B) = 0.95$

80% passed in mathematics 75% passed in english

This means that $P(A) = 0.8, P(B) = 0.75$

Proportion who passed in both:

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

Considering the values we have for this problem

$P(A \cap B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cup B) = 0.8 + 0.75 - 0.95 = 0.6$

3000 of them were passed both subjects how many students appeared in the examination?

3000 is 60% of the total t. So

$0.6t = 3000$

$t = \frac{3000}{0.6}$

$t = 5000$

5000 students appeared in the examination.

Val rented a bicycle while she was on vacation she paid a flat rental fee of $55.00 plus $8.50 EACH day the total cost was $123

Tom [10]

Answer:

14 days approximately or 14.47 to be exact

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of days be x

Val paid $123 for x days for renting a bicycle where as $8.50 was rent of bicycle per day so dividing $123/8.50 gives us number of days

which are 14.47 days.

$55 amount is ambiguous that whether it was flat ( as in apartment) rental fee or what?

A population of geese grow in such a way that each generation is simply 2.2 times the previous generation. There were 3 geese in

lapo4ka [179]

First generation: 3

Second generation: $3\times2.2$

Third generation: $3\times2.2\times2.2=3\times2.2^2$

Fourth generation: $3\times2.2\times2.2\times2.2=3\times2.2^3$

And so on. The general formula for the $n$ th generation is $3\times2.2^{n-1}$ . So by the 15th generation, you should expect around $3\times2.2^{15-1}\approx186655$ geese.
