2. The probability that Gary and Jane have a child

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer: 2 II, only

Step-by-step explanation:

The events are independent

Two events, A and B, are independent if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring. Comparing with the given situation, it means that the fact that the child has blue eyes does not mean that the child would necessarily have blond hair.

The multiplication rule is applied for independent events. Since events A and B are independent, the probability of both occurring is

P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B)

Applying it to the given situation, the probability of the child having blue eyes and blond hair is

0.25 × 0.5 = 0.125

This corresponds to the given probability. Therefore, they are independent events.

Mutually exclusive is not correct because the events can happen at the same time

If the height and radius of a cylinder are doubled, how will the volume of the cylinder be affected?
Leto [7]
If the height and radius of a cylinder are doubled, the volume of the cylinder will also double or will be higher. This is true because the formula for calculating cylinder’s volume is: V=πr2h; where r is the radius while h is the height. However, as you can see on the formula the radius has more effect than height.

What percent of 25 is 17? Please show work, thank you.
Elina [12.6K]
First, you would need to create an equation for this problem. Let x represent the unknown percentage. 
\frac{17}{25} = \frac{x}{100}

Next, you would cross multiply. 
25x = 1,700

Now, all you would have to do is isolate the x. To do this, you would divide both sides by 25. 
x = 68%

17 is 68% of 25. 

I hope this helps!
