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

Work out the missing value in the calculation below​
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{3} +\frac{1}{6}= \frac{ }{6}  \\

Here LCM will be 6. (We made the denominator same)

so, now the equation will be :

\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{6}    \\\\  =\frac{4}{6} + \frac{1}{6}

= 5/6

So, the value in the red box is 5.

Hope it helps!

the length of a rectangular garden is 3 m greater than the width. The area of the garden is 70m squared. find the dimensions of
Lerok [7]
A = l x w

so you know that the length is 3m longer than the width, so you could use a formula to represent that

w = l + 3

you then substitute the second equation into the first to solve for l

70 = l x (l +3)
70 = l^2 + 3l

you could then rearrange the formula and solve for l using the quadratic formula 

0 = l^2 + 3l - 70

l = -3 +- (square root (3)^2 - 4(1)(70)) / 2(1)
l = -3 +- (square root 9 + 280) / 2
l = -3 +- (square root 289) / 2
l = -3 +- 17 / 2

then you solve for the two seperate roots

l = -3 + 17 /2
l = 14 / 2
l = 7

or 

l = -3 - 17 / 2
l = -20 / 2
l = -10

since a length cannot be negative, this root is not viable. therefore l = 7

to solve for w you would use

w = l + 3
w = 7 + 3
w = 10 

hope this helps! if you did not understand a step or concept please let me know!

A new hospital tracked the number of births during its first 6 months of operation, as shown in the table. Find a quadratic func
UNO [17]
Let    x refers to the Month numbers
And  y refers to Number of births

There is 5 steps to find the quadratic function that models the data.

First step           ⇒ <span>Plot <span>the data pairs (<span>x<span>, <span>y<span>) in a coordinate plane.
                              which are the blue circles in the attached figure

Second step     ⇒ </span></span></span></span></span></span><span>Draw <span>the parabola you think best fits the data.
                             Which is the red function in the attached figure.

</span></span><span><span>Third step         ⇒</span> Estimate <span>the coordinates of three points on the
<span>                             parabola, which are (2, 108), (4, 68), and (6, 75).</span>
                             </span></span><span><span>which are the black squares in the attached figure</span>

Fourth step       ⇒ </span><span>Substitute <span>the coordinates of the points into the<span> model <span>
                            y <span>= <span>ax<span>2 <span>+ <span>bx <span>+ <span>c
<span>                            to obtain a system of three linear equations.</span>

                            4a + 2 b + c = 108   ---------(1)
                            </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span>16a + 4 b + c = 68   ---------(2)</span>
                            36a + 6 b + c = 75   ---------(3)   

Fifth step   ⇒ </span><span>Solve <span>the linear system.
                      By using the calculator
                      a = 5.875 , b = -55.25 , c = 195

So, the</span></span><span> quadratic model for the data is ⇒ y = 5.875 x²- 55.25 x + 195
============================================
T</span><span>o predict the number of births for month 8
substitute with x = 8 ⇒  y = </span><span>5.875 * 8²- 55.25 * 8 + 195 = 129</span>
