A study of college business majors included 150 sophomores and 200 juniors. The study showed that 80 sophomores and 150 juniors

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

0.3478

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The number of sophomore, S = 150

- The sophomore and had summer internship, x = 80

- The number of juniors, J = 200

- The junior and had summer internship, y = 150

Find:-

What is the probability that the person is a sophomore given that the person had a summer internship?

Solution:-

- The total sum of sophomore and junior students is N:

N = S + J

N = 150 + 200

N = 350 students.

- We will denote event A as random selection of sophomore from total.

- We will denote event B as random selection of student who had summer internship.

- We are to determine the conditional probability that a person selected is sophomore given that the person had a summer internship. That is the probability of event A given that event B has already occured.

- The conditional probability can be written as:

P ( A / B ) = P ( A & B ) / P ( B )

Where,

P ( A & B ) : The probability the person is a sophomore and had a summer internship.

P ( B ): The probability that the person selected had a summer internship.

P ( A & B ) = x / N

= 80 / 350

= 0.22857143

P ( B ) = ( x + y ) / N

= ( 80 + 150 ) / 350 = 230/350

= 0.65714286

Therefore the required probability is:

P ( A / B ) = 0.22857143 / 0.65714286

= 0.3478 ... Answer

Samantha has a shelf that is 95 over 4 inches wide. How many books can Samantha arrange on the shelf if each book is 5 over 4 in

love history [14]

Answer:

Option 1 - 19, because the number of books is 95 over 4 divided by 5 over 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Samantha has a shelf that is 95 over 4 inches wide.

To find : How many books can Samantha arrange on the shelf if each book is 5 over 4 inches thick?

Solution :

The thickness of shelf = $\frac{95}{4}$ inches

Each book thickness = $\frac{5}{4}$ inches

Let the total number of books that could be arranged in the shelf be 'n'.

$\text{Number\ of\ books\ arranged}=\dfrac{\text{Thickness\ of\ shelf}}{\text{Thickness\ of\ one\ book}}$

Substitute the values,

$n=\dfrac{\dfrac{95}{4}}{\dfrac{5}{4}}$

$n=\dfrac{95\times 4}{5\times 4}$

$n=\dfrac{95}{5}$

$n=19$

Therefore, option 1 is correct.

19, because the number of books is 95 over 4 divided by 5 over 4

A sequence is constructed according to the following rule: its first term is 7, and each next term is one more than the sum of t

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the described rule, we have

$a_1=7\\ \\a_1^2=7^2=49\Rightarrow a_2=4+9+1=14\\ \\a_2^2=14^2=196\Rightarrow a_3=1+9+6+1=17\\ \\a_3^2=17^2=289\Rightarrow a_4=2+8+9+1=20\\ \\a_4^2=20^2=400\Rightarrow a_5=4+0+0+1=5\\ \\a_5^2=5^2=25\Rightarrow a_6=2+5+1=8\\ \\a_6^2=8^2=64\Rightarrow a_7=6+4+1=11\\ \\a_7^2=11^2=121\Rightarrow a_8=1+2+1+1=5\\ \\\text{and so on...}$

We can see the pattern

$a_5=a_8=a_{11}=a_{14}=...=5\\ \\a_6=a_9=a_{12}=a_{15}=...=8\\ \\a_7=a_{10}=a_{13}=a_{16}=...=11$

In other words, for all $k\ge 2$

$a_{3k-1}=5\\ \\a_{3k}=8\\ \\a_{3k+1}=11$

Now,

$a_{2018}=a_{3\cdot 673-1}=5$

Ab=45 mm,bc=10cm 4mm ,cd = 5 cm 6 mm ,de= 35 mm,ea=x cm, and the perimeter of irregular pentagon is 280 mm. Find the length of t

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The length of the unknown side x is 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter of a polygon is equal to the sum of its length sides

Remember that

1 cm=10 mm

In this problem we have

AB=45 mm ------> convert to cm -----> AB=45/10=4.5 cm

BC=10 cm 4 mm -----> convert to cm -----> BC=10+4/10=10.4 cm

CD=5 cm 6 mm -----> convert to cm -----> CD=5+6/10=5.6 cm

DE=35 mm ------> convert to cm -----> DE=35/10=3.5 cm

EA=x cm

P=280 mm ------> convert to cm -----> P=280/10=28 cm

The perimeter of the irregular polygon is equal to

P=AB+BC+CD+DE+EA

substitute the values

28=4.5+10.4+5.6+3.5+x

28=24+x

x=28-24

x=4 cm
