A college sends a survey to members of the class of 2012. Of the 1254 people who graduated that year, 672 are women, of whom 124

went on to graduate school. Of the 582 male graduates, 198 went on to graduate school. What is the probability that a class of 2012 alumnus selected at random is (a) female, (b) male, and (c) female and did not attend graduate school?

Answer:

a) P(F) = \frac{672}{1254}=\frac{112}{209}=0.536

b) P(M) = \frac{582}{1254}= \frac{97}{209}=0.464

c) P(A') = 1-P(A) = 1- \frac{124}{672}= \frac{137}{168}=0.815

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have a total of 1254 people. 672 are women and 582 are female.

We know that 124 women wnat on to graduate school.

And 198 male want on to graduate school

We can define the following events:

F = The alumnus selected is female

M= The alumnus selected is male

A= Female and attend graduate school

And we can find the probabilities required using the empirical definition of probability like this:

Part a

P(F) = \frac{672}{1254}=\frac{112}{209}=0.536

Part b

P(M) = \frac{582}{1254}= \frac{97}{209}=0.464

Part c

For this case we find the probability for the event A: The student selected is female and did attend graduate school

P(A) =\frac{124}{672}=\frac{31}{168}=0.185

And using the complement rule we find P(A') representing the probability that the female selected did not attend graduate school like this:

P(A') = 1-P(A) = 1- \frac{124}{672}= \frac{137}{168}=0.815

In what base is the sum of 8 and 5 equal to 14?
LuckyWell [14K]
Nothing. It would have to be 5 and 8 to be 13... Not 14 and it would be math. :)

Create 3 fraction whose product is -5/24
mixer [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

1.)

-  \frac{5}{3}  \times  \frac{1}{8}  =  -  \frac{5}{24}  \\  \\

2.)

-  \frac{5}{2}  \times  \frac{1}{12}  =   - \frac{5}{24}  \\

3.)

-  \frac{1}{6}  \times  \frac{5}{4}  =  -  \frac{5}{24}  \\

If on the unit circle C, the distance from P(1, 0) to the point T ( 4/5 , 3/5 ) is x, determine the coordinates of the point at
AveGali [126]

Answer:

(\frac{4}{5}, -\frac{3}{5}  )

Step-by-step explanation:

The point P(1,0) and T(\frac{4}{5}, \frac{3}{5}  ) are on the unit circle C and the arc length from P to T is x.

Let us assume that point P - x i.e. the point obtained by moving clock wise direction along the circle from P is T'.

Because of the symmetry of the circle about the coordinate axes, the x-coordinate of point T' will be \frac{4}{5} and the y-coordinate will be -\frac{3}{5}.

So, coordinates of T' are (\frac{4}{5}, -\frac{3}{5}  ).

Here we must notice that point T' is the reflection point of T with respect to X-axis. (Answer)
