The distance between the police station and the fire station is x.
The distance between the library and the police station is 3 miles less than twice the distance between the police station and the fire station, so it is 2x-3. This distance is equal to 5 miles.

2x-3=5 \\
2x=5+3 \\
2x=8 \\
x=\frac{8}{2} \\
x=4

The police station and the fire station are 4 miles aparat.

Try this please, it's about arcs and angles and I'm just not sure how to do it. Thanks!
Nataly_w [17]
Check the picture below.

the segment LOJ is a diameter, and therefore the arcLCJ made by that diameter will have a central angle of 180°.

that simply means that the arcLC is 180 - 94, or 86°.

the ∡LJC is an inscribed angle that is intercepting the arcLC, and therefore, by the inscribed angle theorem, it'll be half of arcLC.

Answer:

about .84

Step-by-step explanation:

I got about .84 because I added the total number of people married and the total number of people never married. 123+70=193. I then found the probability of 193 over the total number of people in the population. 193/231= .83549784

This decimal estimated is about .84.

The probability that the person is married or has never married is about .84.
