Answer:

0.71875

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that a person thinks of himself as Democrat = P(A)= 0.32

Probability that a person agress that the govt. in Washington should do everything possible to improve the standard of living of poor= P(B)

Probability that a Democrat agress that the govt. in Washington should do everything possible to improve the standard of living of poor P(A ∩ B) = 0.23

P(B/A) = P(B∩A)/ P(A)

P(B/A)= 0.23/0.32

P(B/A) = 0.71875

A system of equations is given below. For what value(s) of x is f(x)=g(x) ?
NARA [144]

\large{f(x) = g(x)}   \\  \large{ {x}^{2}  + 3x = x + 3}

Since we are solving the quadratic equation because the highest degree in the equation is second. We arrange in the form of ax²+bx+c = 0.

\large{  {x}^{2}  + 3x - x - 3 = 0}

Combine like terms.

\large{ {x}^{2}  + 2x - 3 = 0}

Solve the equation by factoring.

\large{(x  + 3)(x - 1) = 0} \\  \large{x =  - 3,1}

Hence the values of x that make f(x) = g(x) are -3 and 1.

Answer

  • x = -3,1
