Answer:

9 / 64

Step-by-step explanation:

- In this task you have 2 events and you are looking for a joint probability. The first event is "Rebecca chooses a poodle". The probability of this event is:

                    P ( Rebecca chooses a poodle ) = 3 / 8

- because among 8 dogs there are 3 poodles.

- The second event is "Aaron selects a poodle".

This event has a probability of  that is equivalent to previous selection:

                   P ( Aaron chooses a poodle ) = 3 / 8

- Because after Rebecca's choice the chosen poodle is replaced with the poodle; hence, there are 8 pets in total and among them there are 3 poodles.

- To calculate probability of both events ("Rebeca selects a poodle and Aaron selects a poodle") with replacement you have to multiply both calculated probabilities - condition of independent events :

     P ( Aaron and Rebecca both select poodle ) = 3 / 8 * 3 / 8

                                                                                = 9 / 64

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Semester Costs = 8*2858 =                     22864

Books / semester= 8 * 391 =                        <u>3128</u>

Total                                                            25992

If he wants to repay all this in six years the answer would be

45000 + 25992/6 = 45000 + 4332 = 49332
