Suppose that the handedness of the last fifteen U.S. presidents is as follows:40% were left-handed (L)47% were Democrats (D)If a

president is left-handed, there is a 13% chance that the president is a Democrat.Based on this information on the last fifteen U.S. presidents, is "being left-handed" independent of "being a Democrat"?(A) Yes, since 0.40 * 0.47 is not equal to 0.13.(B) No, since 0.40 is not equal to 0.13.(C) No, since 0.47 is not equal to 0.13.(D) Yes, since 0.47 is not equal to 0.13.

Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that they were left handed P(L)= 40%

Probability that they were Democrats P(D)= 47%

So, P(L∩D) = 135 = 0.13

Now, to check whether they are independent or not.

We will find P(L) × P(D) is given by

P(L)\times P(D)=0.47\times 0.40=0.188

Since P(L) . P(D) ≠ P(L∩D)

So, they are not independent.

Hence, Option 'c' is correct.

The function g(x) is a transformation of the quadratic parent function, fx):
77julia77 [94]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is narrower, so the coefficient of x^2 has an absolute value more than 1.

  • Eliminate B and C.

Also, because g(x) opens down, the coefficient of x^2 is negative.

  • Eliminate A.

This leaves D as the answer.

A shop has a sale that offers 20% off all prices.On the final day reduce all the sale prices by 25%.Linz buys a radio on the fin
Mrac [35]

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = x

Sale = 20% off

20% / 100 = 0.2 to convert from a percent to a decimal

Sale = x - 20% of x = x - 0.2x = 0.8x

Sale price = y = 0.8x

Reduction of sale prices = 25% = 0.25

Reduction = y - 25% of y = y - 0.25y = 0.75y

End price in terms of original price (x):

0.75y = 0.75(0.8)x

          = 0.6x

End price = 0.6 or 60% of original price, coming out to a 100-60 = 40% overall percentage reduction
