Answer: Choice B. Dependent; probabilities are not equal

P(picky) = 34%

P(picky | cat) = 44%

This is a vertical bar separating "picky" and "cat". It is not an uppercase letter i or lowercase letter L.

=================================================

Explanation:

There are 17 total picky eaters out of 50 pets total. The probability of randomly choosing a picky eater is

P(picky) = 17/50 = 0.34 = 34%

The notation P(picky | cat) translates to "probability of getting a picky eater given the pet is a cat". In other words, we have prior knowledge the pet is a cat. So we only focus on the cat row. We have 11 picky cats out of 25 cats total. This means

P(picky | cat) = 11/25 = 0.44 = 44%

Notice how this result is different from 34% found earlier. The fact that we have prior knowledge the pet selected is a cat changes the probability of P(picky). This means the events are dependent. If they were independent events, then P(picky) = P(picky | cat) would be true.

Those who have taken the Algebra EOC please answer.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

To me yes.

Algebra is mostly memorization. If you know the formulas and know how to apply it, you should do good.

I say use this. Algebra topics are like building on top each other.

Heart of Algebra:

  • Review what the purpose of x in algebra.
  • Then learn things like combining like terms, and solving for x.
  • Since you know the basics of x, you can then review linear equations( imo, a big content of algebra). Stuff like slope, different linear forms, graphs of linear equations, and mostly linear equation word problems
  • Then you can review system of equations. since you know how to manipulate linear equations, etc.

Then move on to other algebra topics dealing with algebra like

  • functions, and different types of them
  • exponents, and radicals rules
  • inequalities.
  • sequences.
  • These aren't the heart of algebra but study them they are useful and it important to know them.

Since you learned different function rules, we can move on to learning exponetial functions, graphs, and word problems.

Then finally, learn most hard thing in Algebra: Quadratics.

Pratice,practice, and practice and you will pass.

Try to memorize the formulas and know when to apply it.

Good Luck

You buy a package of 12 pencils for $2.64 write this rate as a unit rate?
iogann1982 [59]
Unit rate means how much does it cost for 1 unit

2.64 for 12 pencils
find 1 pencil
divide both sides by 12
0.22 for 1 pencil

0.22 per pencil
