For the members of a neighborhood meeting group, the probability of randomly selecting a member who likes to cook is 42%, the pr

Monica [59]

Answer: Probability of randomly selecting a member who likes to cook or likes to sew = 58%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of a randomly selecting a member who likes to cook=P(C) = 42%

Probability of a randomly selecting a member who likes to sew =P(S)= 23%

Probability of a randomly selecting a member who likes to both cook and sew

$P(C\cap S)=7\%$

As we know the "Probability rules " :

$P(C\cup S)=P(C)+P(S)-P(S\cap C)\\\\P(C\cup S)=42+23-7\\\\P(C\cup S)=58$

So, Probability of randomly selecting a member who likes to cook or likes to sew = 58%

Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel are among 13 students who entered a lottery to win a free vacation to Paris.

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

0.0014 = 0.14% probability that Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel will be chosen.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the students are chosen is not important, so the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Desired outcomes:

4 students from a set of 4(Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel). So

$D = C_{4,4} = \frac{4!}{4!(4-4)!} = 1$

Total outcomes:

4 students from a set of 13(number of students in the lottery). So

$T = C_{13,4} = \frac{13!}{4!(13-4)!} = 715$

Probability:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{715} = 0.0014$

0.0014 = 0.14% probability that Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel will be chosen.

If equal amounts are added to the numerator and the denominator of the current ratio, the ratio will always:

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Increase?

Step-by-step explanation:

Because think about it let's use 1/2 as an example.

1/2 equals .5 now lets add 2 to both the numerator and denominator

3/4 is the result and it also equals .75 which is larger than .5 so that's why the answer is increase.

and u can keep on going on with the method

4/5=.8
