Answer:the probability that a pensioner catches a flu is 0.3 or \frac{3}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Data:</u>

a) Pensioners who have had a flu jab = \frac{3}{5}

b) Pensioners who did not had a flu jab = 1 - \frac{3}{5} = \frac{2}{5}

For the first pair of arrows: a is the probability of the upper arrow and b is the probability of the lower arrow.

<em>If pensioner have had a flu jab, the probability of catching flu is \frac{1}{30}</em>

Data:

c) Catching flu = \frac{1}{30}

d) Not catching flu = 1 - \frac{1}{30} = \frac{29}{30}

The second pair of arrows on the top: Top arrow is c and bottom arrow is d

<em>If pensioner did not have a flu jab, the probability of catching flu is \frac{7}{10}</em>

<u>Data:</u>

e) Catching flu = \frac{7}{10}

f) Not catching flu = 1 - \frac{7}{10} = \frac{3}{10}

The second pair of arrows on the bottom: Top arrow is e and bottom arrow is f.

Q) Probability pensioner catches a flu

P(catches the flu given that he had the flu jab) + P(catches the flu given that he did not have the flu jab)

(\frac{3}{5} x \frac{1}{30}) + (\frac{2}{5} x \frac{7}{10} )

= 0.02 + 0.28

= 0.3

Therefore, the probability that a pensioner catches a flu is 0.3 or \frac{3}{10}

21 and 22 are complementary angles. The measure of Z1 is 60°. The
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The value of x is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles have a sum of 90°, therefore the equation to solve for x is:

∠1+∠2=90°

60°+5(x-1)°=90°

5(x-1)=30°

x-1=6

x=7

So the value of x is 7

The radius of a cylinder is doubled and its height is halved. Find the ratios of their surface areas.
Inessa [10]

Answer: 1:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r be the radius and h be the height of a cylinder.

Formula: Curved surface area of cylinder = 2\pi rh

Now, if  radius of a cylinder is doubled and its height is halved, then new radius will be R= 2r and new height  will be  H=\dfrac{1}{2}

Now, new surface area = 2\pi RH= 2\pi(2r)\dfrac{h}{2}= 2\pi rh

Ratio of curved surface areas : \dfrac{\text{Surface area}}{\text{New surface area}}=\dfrac{2\pi rh}{2\pi rh}=\dfrac{1}{1}

Hence, the ratios of their surface areas = 1:1 .
