Answer:

8 cups disinfectant per 36 gallons of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, set up an equation of ratios:

 2/3 cup disinfectant          3 gallons water        1

--------------------------------  =  -------------------------- = -----

                x                          36 gallons water      12

Cross multiplication yields  12(2/3 cup disinfectant) = 1x, so that:

x = 8 cups

8 cups of disinfectant are needed to make a solution involving 36 cups water.

The probability that a high school student in in the marching band is 0.47. The probability that a student plays a varsity sport
IrinaK [193]

The probability that a high school student in in the marching band is 0.47

so, P(M)=0.47

The probability that a student plays a varsity sport is 0.32

so, P(V)=0.32

the probability that a student is in the marching band and plays a varsity sport is 0.24

so, we get

P(M∩V)=0.24

a student plays a varsity sport if we know she is in the marching band

so,

P(V|M)=(P(V∩M))/(P(M))

now, we can plug values

and we get

P(V|M)=\frac{0.24}{0.47}

P(V|M)=0.51063

So,

the probability that a student plays a varsity sport if we know she is in the marching band is 0.51063......Answer
