Answer:

a) 0.06

b) 0.778

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose a community of 100 families just to facilitate the calculation.

30% of the families own a dog

Dog = 30% of 100 = 30

20% of the families that own a dog also own a cat = 20% of 30 = 6

27% of all the families own a cat = 27% of 100 = 27

So, 6 families own a dog and a cat.

As 30 families own a dog, [30 - 6 =] 24 families own only dogs

As 27 families own a cat, [27 - 6 = ] 21 families own only cats

See picture attached.

a) What is the probability that a randomly selected family owns both a dog and a cat?

P(dog and cat) = dog ∩ cat/total = 6/100 = 0.06

b) What is the conditional probability that a randomly selected family doesn't own a dog given that it owns a cat?

So, only cat/total cat

P (not dog|cat) = 21/27 = 0.778

Simplify the answer as much as possible​
RSB [31]

Answer:

f(-5)=240

g(-7)=-33

Step-by-step explanation:

1) f(x)=3x^2 - 3x

f(-5)= 3×(-5)^2 - 3×(-5) = -15^2 + 15= 225 + 15=240

2) g(x)=5x + 2

g(-7)= 5×(-7) + 2= -35+2=-33

Evaluate.<br> 21 + } + (-)) -<br> Enter your answer as a mixed number in simplest form in the box.
andrew-mc [135]

Evaluate: 2(1/4) + 2/5 ÷ (-1/2) - 1/4

⇛9/4 + 2/5 ÷ (-1/2) - 1/4

Take the LCM of the 4 and 5 is 20.

Again, 2 and 4 is 4.

⇛[(54+8)/20] ÷ [(-2 - 1)/4]

⇛62/20 ÷ (-3/4)

⇛62/20 × 4/-3

⇛62/{5*(-3)}

⇛62/-15.
