1 answer:
Answer:
The table is show clearly in the figure attached.
P(boy if favourite activity is swimming) = 8/17 = 0.47
P(girl if favourite activity is sport) = 7/27 = 0.26
P(girl if favourite activity is reading) = 4/6 = 0.67
P(boy if favourite activity is sport) = 20/27 = 0.74
P(favourite activity is swimming if a girl) = 9/20 = 0.45
P(favourite activity is reading if a boy) = 2/30 = 0.07
P(favourite activity is swimming if a boy) = 8/30 = 0.27
P(favourite activity is reading if a girl) = 4/20 = 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:
In this example we are to consider the equation 2x - 5 = 4x + 12, and are asked to solve for x. Well let us take the first approach, a mathematical one;
Now consider the explanation, " talking over a phone to a friend. "
First you would subtract 2x on either side of the equation, canceling the 2x on one side, and subtracting 2x from 4x on the other, resulting in the simplified equation - 5 = 2x + 12. Subtracting 12 from either side we cancel the 12 on one side, and subtract - 12 and - 5 on the other. We now get - 17 = 2x. Dividing 2 on either side, x = - 8.5!
