The probability of event A and B to both occur is denoted as P(A ∩ B) = P(A) P(B|A). It is the probability that Event A occurs times the probability that Event B occurs, given that Event A has occurred.
So, to find the probability that you will be assigned a poem by Shakespeare and by Tennyson, let Event A = the event that a Shakespeare poem will be assigned to you; and let Event B = the event that the second poem that will be assigned to you will be by Tennyson.
At first, there are a total of 13 poems that would be randomly assigned in your class. There are 4 poems by Shakespeare, thus P(A) is 4/13.
After the first selection, there would be 13 poems left. Therefore, P(B|A) = 2/12
Based on the rule of multiplication,
P(A ∩ B) = P(A) P(B|A)P(A ∩ B) = 4/13 * 2/12
P(A ∩ B) = 8/156
P(A ∩ B) = 2/39
The probability that you will be assigned a poem by Shakespeare, then a poem by Tennyson is 2/39 or 5.13%.
Initial price of car = $x
After one year the price of car = $0.88x
to find the change in price we subtract the price after one year from initial price.
It means change in price = (x-0.88x)= 0.12x
By this we can easily see that , price dropped by 0.12
Or we can say that price dropped by 12%
So option C is the correct answer
C) 12% decrease

Answer:
cheeseburger is $3 and chips is $0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let price of cheeseburger be x while price of a bag of chips be y hence for the case of Nathan, we can write the equation as x+y=3.75. Similarly, for Jack, we can write it as 2x+3y=8.25
x+y=3.75 hence x=3.75-y and substituting this into the second equation we have
2x+3y=8.25
2(3.75-y)+3y=8.25
7.5-2y+3y=8.25
y=8.25-7.5=0.75
x=3.75-y=3.75-0.75=3
Therefore, price of cheeseburger is $3 and chips is $0.75
