Llana [10]

Number employees N = 600

Then

Probability of Single + College degree = ?

Probability of single S = 100/600 = 1/6

Probability of College graduate G = 400/600 = 2/3

So then probability of both S and G is

Prob Single or Graduate = 1/6 + 2/3 = 1/6 + 4/6 = 5/6

. = 0.833

Then answer is

Probability of Single or Graduate = 5/6= 0.8333

Is also 83.33%

Answer:

  • 171/40 or 4 11/40

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>AP given</h3>
  • a + b, a - b,  ab, a/b
<h3>To find</h3>
  • 6th term
<h3>Solution</h3>

Common difference

<u>Difference of first two</u>

  • d = (a -b) - (a + b) = -2b

<u>Difference of second two</u>

  • d= ab - (a - b)

<u>Difference of last two</u>

  • d = a/b - ab

<u>Now comparing d:</u>

  • -2b = ab - (a - b)
  • ab - a = - 3b
  • a(1 - b) = 3b
  • a = 3b/(1 - b)

and

  • a/b - ab = -2b
  • a(1/b - b) = -2b
  • a = 2b²/(b² - 1)

<u>Eliminating a:</u>

  • 2b²/(b² - 1) = 3b/(1 - b)
  • 2b/(b+1) = -3
  • 2b = -3b - 3
  • 5b = - 3
  • b = -3/5

<u>Finding a:</u>

  • a = 3b/(1 - b) =
  • 3*(-3/5) *1/(1 - (-3/5)) =
  • -9/5*5/8 =
  • -9/8

<u>So the first term is:</u>

  • a + b = -3/5 - 9/8 = -24/40 - 45/40 = - 69/40

<u>Common difference:</u>

  • d = -2b = -2(-3/5) = 6/5

<u>The 6th term:</u>

  • a₆ = a₁ + 5d =
  • -69/40 + 5*6/5 =
  • -69/40 + 240/40 =
  • 171/40 = 4 11/40
