2/5 on the pie chart it says that 2/5 of the band plays a brass instrument
We have given the table of number of male and female contestants who did and did not win prize
The probability that a randomly selected contestant won prize given that contestant was female is
P(contestant won prize / Contestant was female)
Here we will use conditional probability formula
P(A/B) =
Let Event A = selected contestant won prize and
event B = selected contestant is famale
Then numerator entity will
P(A and B) = P(Contestant won prize and Contestant is female)
= Number of female contestant who won prize / Total number of contestant
= 3 /(4+9+3+10)
= 3 / 26
P(A and B) = 0.1153
P(B) = P(contestant is female )
= Number of female contestant / Total number of contestants
= (3+10) / 26
P(B) = 0.5
Now P(A / B) =
= 0.1153 / 0.5
P(A / B) = 0.2306
The probability that randomly selected contestant won prize given that contestant is female is 0.2306
Converting probability into percentage 23.06%
The percentage that randomly selected contestant won prize given that contestant is female is 23%
Congruent sides, so isosceles triangle. When we have an isosceles triangle the bisector of angle A is a perpendicular bisector of BC with foot D. So x=ADB=90 degrees.
Angle B is 47 degrees and angle y=BAD is complementary, the other acute angle in a right triangle.
y = 90 - 47 = 43
Answer: x=90, y=43
Hello!
The equation representing the statement is the third one, x=4(x-15). In fact, Juan’s age is x, his age 15 years ago is (x-15) and it is said that his age now is 4 times his age 15 years ago, so x=4(x-15).
If my answer is not clear enough or you’d like further explanation please let me know. Also, English is not my first language, so I’m sorry for any mistakes.
The answer to this problem is 1/5
