Answer:The correct answer is A, 14%.

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is take the 30% chance of you HAVING to stop at the first light and find the chance that you won't have to stop at the first light, which is 70%, or .7. Then you take the chance of having to stop at the second light which is 80%, and find the probability of NOT having to stop there, which is 20%, or .2. Then you multiply the probabilities of not having to stop, which equals to .14.

The probability that he will not have to stop at the first light is 1 - 0.3 = 0.7.
The probability that he will not have to stop at the second light is 1 - 0.8 = 0.2.
The probability that he will not have to stop at either light is:
0.7\times0.2=0.14
The correct answer choice is A.

Find the measure of an angle whose measure is 60 degrees more than the measure of its complement
Natasha2012 [34]
Two complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. Hence, the problem can be set up and solved. Let x represents one angle and 5x represent the angle that is 5 times greater:x + 5x = 90 (simplify)6x = 90 (next divide both sides by 6 to find the value of x [the smaller angle])x = 15 (this is the smaller angle, next subtract 15 from 90 to find the greater angle)90 - 15 = 75 (this is the greater angle which is 5 times that of its complement) <span>90 take away 73...</span>
