Answer:

Option "a": 0.488

Step-by-step explanation:

If 52 people answered "yes" and 77 people answered "no", a total of 52 + 77 = 129 people answered the question.

From the people that answered "yes", 5 were male, and from the people that answered "no", 11 were male, so there is a total of 5+11 = 16 men.

To find the probability of one person randomly selected being male or having answered "yes", we can use the following probabilities:

Probability of the person being male: P(Male) = 16/129

Probability of the person having answered "yes": P(Yes) = 52/129

Probability of the person being male and having answered "yes": P(Male AND Yes) = 5/129

Then, we can calculate the probability of the person being male or having answered "yes":

P(Male OR Yes) = P(Male) + P(Yes) - P(Male AND Yes)

= (16/129) + (52/129) - (5/129) = 63/129 = 0.4884 = 48.84%

Correct option: "a"

CAN U SOLVE THIS
balandron [24]

Hello!

To the value of b, or the y-intercept, we need to substitute an ordered pair/point into the given equation.

Since we are given two points, we can use those two points to find two different equations.

Remember that ordered pairs are written as (x, y).

A(-2, 4)

y = -3x + b

4 = -3(-2) + b

4 = 6 + b (subtract 6 from both sides)

-2 = b

A) Therefore, the equation of the first ordered pair is y = -3x - 2.

B(5, 2)

2 = -3(5) + b

2 = -15 + b (add 15 to both sides)

17 = b

B) The equation of the second ordered pair is y= -3x + 17.

<u>Final answers</u>:

  • A) y = -3x - 2
  • B) y = -3x + 17
