Suppose that in a survey of 1,000 U.S. residents, 721 residents believed that the amount of violent television programming had i

ncreased over the past 10 years, 454 residents believed that the overall quality of television programming had decreased over the past 10 years, and 362 residents believed both. What proportion of the 1,000 U.S. residents believed that either the amount of violent programming had increased or the overall quality of programming had decreased over the past 10 years?

Answer: 0.813

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event describes the number of residents believed that the amount of violent television programming had increased over the past 10 years.

& B be the event describes the number of residents believed that the amount of violent television programming had decreased over the past 10 years.

Given : n(A)=721   ;  n(B)=454  ;  n(A∩B)=362

We know that ,

n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)

i.e. n(A\cup B)=721+454-362=813

Also, the total number of U.S. residents surveyed n(S)= 1,000

Then, the  proportion of the 1,000 U.S. residents believed that either the amount of violent programming had increased or the overall quality of programming had decreased over the past 10 years will be :-

P(A\cup B)=\dfrac{n(A\cup B)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{813}{1000}=0.813

Hence, the required answer = 0.813

The circumference is 28.3 cm to the nearest tenth of a centimeter

2)

C ≈ 3.14 (2 • 13)
C ≈ 3.14 • 26
C ≈ 81.64
The circumference is 81.6 in to the nearest tenth of a inch

3)

C = 3.14 (13)
C = 40.82
C = 40.8

4)

C = 3.14 (2 • 5)
C = 3.14 (10)
C = 31.4

5)

C = 3.14 (2 • 1.5)
C = 3.14(3)
C = 9.42
C = 9.4

31 - 8a = 5 ( - 4 - 5a )
timama [110]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

31 - 8a = 5(-4 - 5a)

First, on the right-hand side of the equation, let's distribute the 5 to each term in the parenthesis:

31 - 8a = -20 - 25a

Now, let's move all the terms with an a to the left-hand side, and everything else to the right-hand side of the equation:

-8a + 25a = -20 - 31

Let's combine like terms:

17a = -51

Finally, let's divide each side by 17 to get a by itself on the left-hand side of the equation:

a = -3

2. Dentre as formas de representar um número decimal, a mais comum é a que utiliza vírgula. Valor como 0,25 está presente nos co
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

B: 0.25 = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Queremos encontrar otra representación del número 0.25

Notar que hay dos decimales luego de la coma, por lo que podemos multiplicar este número y dividir por 100.

0.25 = 0.25*1 = 0.25*(100/100) = (0.25*100)/(100) = 25/100

Ahora tenemos el número escrito como una fracción, la cual debemos simplificar.

25/100

Podemos ver que tanto el numerador como el denominador son multiplos de 5, por lo que podemos dividir ambos por 5:

25/100 = (25/5)/(100/5) = 5/20

Nuevamente, ambos son multiplos de 5, por lo que podemos dividir ambos por 5.

5/20 = (5/5)/(20/5) = 1/4

así tenemos:

0.25 = 25/100 = 5/20 = 1/4

0.25 = 1/4

La opción correcta es B.
