Answer:

a) 113/300

b) 1/2

c) 187/300

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets call the events like follows:

a = married workers

b = graduate workers.

Then, a∧b = married and graduate workers.

We have:

p(a) = 59/100 (59%)

p(b) = 20/100 = 2/10 = 1/5 (20%)

p(a∧b) = 1/6.

So,

answer a) the probability to be neither married nor a college graduate is 1-p(aUb) = 1-(p(a)+P(b)-P(a∩B))=1-59/100-1/5+1/6= 113/300

answer b) the probability to be married but not a college graduate = p(a) ∩ (1-p(b)) = 59/100 x (1-20/100) = 1/2

answer c) the probability to be married or a college graduate p(a∪b)= p(a) ∪ p(b) -P(a∩B)= 59/100+1/5-1/6= 187/300

What is the value of x​
Artemon [7]

Answer:

45 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

Thus, x+3x=180

4x=180

Divide both sides by 4:

\frac{4x}{x} =\frac{180}{4}

x=45

Suppose a triangle has 3 sides, 3, 4, 6 which of the following must be true
Inessa [10]

Answer:

  B. the triangle in question is not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

A 3-4-5 triangle is a right triangle, so this one, with its longer longest side, is an obtuse triangle. It is not a right triangle.

___

3, 4, 5 is one of the first Pythagorean triples that you learn:

  3² + 4² = 5²

These are the side lengths of the smallest right triangle with integer sides. It is worthwhile to remember. This triple is used not only in many math problems (such as this one), but also in real life when it is useful to lay out a right angle.
