The probability that either the girls' or boys' team gets a game is 0.85            

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let P(G) represent the probability of girls team getting a game and P(B) represent the probability of the boys team getting a game.

P(B ∪ G) represents the probability of either girls and boys team getting a game.

P(B ∩ G) represents the probability of both girls and boys team getting a game.

Step 2:

It is given that P(G) = 0.8, P(B) = 0.7 and P(B ∩ G) = 0.65

We need to find the probability of either girls or boys team getting a game which is represented by P(B ∪ G)

Step 3:

P(B ∪ G) = P(B) + P(G) - P(B ∩ G)

= 0.8 + 0.7 - 0.65 = 0.85

Step 4:

Answer:

The probability that either the girls' or boys' team gets a game is 0.85

What is the value of x? 27(x+4)=−6
jonny [76]
First you need to use the distributive property:   27(x+4)=-6 
                                                                              27x+108=-6
then you need to subtract 108 from -6 to
get x alone.                                                           27x= 102

Lastly divide 102 by  27 to finally get x alone:      x=3.777

the answer would be: x= 3.77 or 3.8

Z=a/b+c/d solve for A
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: a=\frac{b(zd-c)}{d}

Step-by-step explanation:

Having the following equation given in the exercise:

z=\frac{a}{b}+\frac{c}{d}

You can solve for "a" following this procedure:

1. You can apply the Subtraction property of equality and subtract \frac{c}{d} from both sides of the equation:

z-(\frac{c}{d})=\frac{a}{b}+\frac{c}{d}-(\frac{c}{d})\\\\z-\frac{c}{d}=\frac{a}{b}

2. Now you must subtract the terms on the left side of the equation. Notice that the Least Common Denominator is "d". Then:

\frac{zd-c}{d}=\frac{a}{b}

3. Finally, you can apply the Multiplication property of equality and multiply both sides of the equation by "b". So, you get:

(b)(\frac{zd-c}{d})=(\frac{a}{b})(b)\\\\a=\frac{b(zd-c)}{d}
