Answer:

The correct option is d) 0.0253

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

When two events, X and Y, are dependent, then the probability of both occurring is: P(X \cap Y)  =  P(X) \cdot P(Y|X)

All plan to attend college some time; however, 77% plan to go to college immediately following high school.

Let X represents the Plan to go to college.

P(X) = 0.77

P(X') = 1 - 0.77 = 0.23

Of those who plan to attend college immediately following high school, 18% plan to major in Math. Of those who do not plan to attend college immediately following high school, 11% plan to major in Math.

Let Y represents Major in Math.

P(Y|X) = 0.18 and P(Y|X') = 0.11

Therefore the required probability is:

P(X'\cap Y) = P(X')P(Y|X') \\P(X'\cap Y)= 0.11\times 0.23 = 0.0253

Hence, the correct option is d) 0.0253

In the figure above line m is parallel to line n.
enot [183]

<u>Given</u>:

Line m is parallel to line n.

The measure of ∠1 is (4x + 15)°

The measure of ∠2 is (9x + 35)°

We need to determine the measure of ∠1

<u>Value of x:</u>

From the figure, it is obvious that ∠1 and ∠2 are linear pairs.

Thus, we have;

\angle 1+\angle 2=180^{\circ}

Substituting the measures of ∠1 and ∠2, we get;

4x+15+9x+35=180

             13x+50=180

                     13x=130

                        x=10

Thus, the value of x is 10.

<u>Measure of ∠1:</u>

The measure of ∠1 can be determined by substituting x = 10 in the measure of ∠1

Thus, we have;

\angle 1 =4(10)+15

    =40+15

\angle 1=55^{\circ}

Thus, the measure of ∠1 is 55°
