A particular state has elected both a governor and a senator. Let A be the event that a randomly selected voter has a favorable

view of a certain party’s senatorial candidate, and let B be the corresponding event for that party’s gubernatorial candidate.
Suppose that P(A′) = .44, P(B′) = .57, and P(A ⋃ B) = .68 (these figures are suggested by the 2010 general election in California).
(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected voter has a favorable view of both candidates?
(b) What is the probability that a randomly selected voter has a favorable view of exactly one of these candidates?
(c) What is the probability that a randomly selected voter has an unfavorable view of at least one of these candidates?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A be the event that a randomly selected voter has a favorable view of a certain party’s senatorial candidate, and let B be the corresponding event for that party’s gubernatorial candidate.

Suppose that

P(A′) = .44, P(B′) = .57, and P(A ⋃ B) = .68

From the above we can find out

P(A) = 1-0.44 = 0.56

P(B) = 1-0.57 = 0.43

P(AUB) = 0.68 =

0.56+0.43-P(A\bigcap B)\\P(A\bigcap B)=0.30

a) the probability that a randomly selected voter has a favorable view of both candidates=P(AB) = 0.30

b) the probability that a randomly selected voter has a favorable view of exactly one of these candidates

= P(A)-P(AB)+P(B)-P(AB)

=0.99-0.30-0.30\\=0.39

c) the probability that a randomly selected voter has an unfavorable view of at least one of these candidates

=P(A'UB') = P(AB)'

=1-0.30\\=0.70

Simplify the expression -3 divided by -2/5.
Romashka [77]
You can either convert -3 into a fraction, or convert -2/5 into a decimal so you can solve this.
If you decide to convert -3, into a fraction, it would be -3/1, and you'd have to multiply that by the reciprocal of -2/5.
So, you'd have -3/1(-5/2)=15/2, which can be simplified to 7 1/2.
If you decide to convert -2/5 into a decimal, you would get -0.4. You would then divide -3 by -0.4, which is equal to 7.5.
Both 7.5 and 7 1/2 are correct answers, and if you were to convert 7.5 into a fraction and 7 1/2 into a decimal, you would notice that they are the same number, but in different forms.

The following figure shows A ABC with side lengths to the nearest tenth.
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

17.7

Step-by-step explanation:

angle B = 180 - 81 - 65 = 34 degrees

as the sum of all angles in any triangle is always 180 degrees.

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

the sides are always on the opposite side of the angle.

so,

10/sin(34) = AB/sin(81)

AB = 10×sin(81) / sin(34) = 17.7
