Answer:

There is a 55.97% that a male can find a full time job in his chosen profession.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 60% probability that a college graduates cannot find a full time job in their chosen profession.

A 40% probability that a college graduates can find a full time job in their chosen profession.

57% of the college graduates who cannot find a job are female

43% of the college graduates who cannot find a job are male

18% of the college graduates who can find a job are female

82% of the college who can find a job are male.

Given a male college graduate, find the probability he can find a full time job in his chosen profession?

The total males are 43% of 60%(Those who cannot find a job) and 82% of 40%(Those who can find a job). So the percentage of males is P(M) = 0.43*0.60 + 0.82*0.40 = 0.586

Those who are males and find a job in their chosen profession are 82% of 40%. So P(M \cap J) = 0.82*0.40 = 0.328

P = \frac{P(M \cap J)}{P(M)} = \frac{0.328}{0.586} = 0.5597

There is a 55.97% that a male can find a full time job in his chosen profession.

A ticket for a school musical is $12. There is a 5% transaction fee if the ticket is purchased online. What is the total cost of
gulaghasi [49]

Answer: The cost of a ticket bought online is $12.60.

Step-by-step explanation: First, we need to find the value of the transaction fee. Multiply 12 and 5%.

$12 x 0.05 = $0.60.

Now we have the fee. Lets add the fee with the original cost.

$12 + $0.60 = $12.60.

Therefore, we can conclude that the cost of a ticket that is purchased online is $12.60.
