Answer: Probability that a random chosen adult run or swims is given by

\frac{3}{10}

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of adults surveyed = 80

Number of adults regularly run for exercise = 22

Remaining number of adults regularly swims for exercise =18

Now, Let Event A : getting adults run for exercise

Event B : getting adults swims for exercise

So,

P(A)=\frac{22}{80}=\frac{11}{40}\\\\P(B)=\frac{18}{80}=\frac{9}{40}\\\\P(A\cap B)=\frac{1}{5}

As we know the formula , i.e.

P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{11}{40}+\frac{9}{40}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{11+9}{40}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{20}{40}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{5-2}{10}=\frac{3}{10}

Hence, Probability that a random chosen adult run or swims is given by

\frac{3}{10}

You are making 10 tons of concrete that is 37.9% cement by mixing a 25% cement mixture with a 68% cement mixture.
Mnenie [13.5K]
The 10 tons should have 37.9% cement.

Let the 25% mixture be x tons

Then the 68% mixture will be (10 -x) tons.

Using formula for mixtures:
Let p for percentage and w for weight in tons.

p₁w₁ + p₂w₂ = pw

25*x + 68*(10-x) = 37.9*10

25x + 680 - 68x = 379

680 - 43x = 379

680 - 379 = 43x

301 = 43x

43x = 301

x = 301/43

x = 7

Recall that x, was for the 25% mixture, 7 tons.

a) For the 68% mixture, = 10 - x = 10 -7 = 3 tons.

b) For the 25% mixture = x = 7 tons.
