Answer:

Age    |    Believe   |   Not believe  |   Total

<45     |    0.148      |        0.422       |   0.570

>45     |    0.301      |        0.129        |   0.430

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct a probability matrix for this problem.

Of the people surveyed, 57% were under age 45. That means that 43% is over age 45.

70% of the ones who were 45 or older, believe the Social Security system will be secure in 20 years.

The Believe proportion is 51%.

Then, the proportion that believe and are under age 45 is:

0.51=P(B;

We can now construct the probability matrix for one respondant selected randomly:

P(45\&NB)=0.43*(1-0.7)=0.43=0.3=0.129

Age    |    Believe   |   Not believe  |   Total

<45     |    0.148      |        0.422       |   0.570

>45     |    0.301      |        0.129        |   0.430

Answer:

because the length is 4 feet more than the width

=> the length is x + 4 (feet)

because the base has an area of 21 square feet

=> x(x + 4) = 21

<=> x² + 4x = 21

1<br> 6 points<br> Solve for x:<br> 3x - 2 = x + 8<br> (Engin+bon.
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 2 = x + 8

Subtract x from each side

3x-x - 2 = x-x + 8

2x -2 = 8

Add 2 to each side

2x-2+2 = 8+2

2x = 10

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =10/2

x = 5
