Lets discern the infomation:

number_men = 165*0.6 = 99

so there are 99 men

non_fiction = 165 * 0.4 = 66

so 66 authors write non-fiction.

men writing non-fiction are 40, so 59 men write fiction, and 26 women write non-fiction.

probability of author non-fiction or man?
non-fiction: 40 men + 26 women = 66 total
man writers = 99

so in total 99 man + 26 women = 115 authors

hence the probability is:
115/165 = 69.6%

Number 5 am stuck pls help
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

im going to be honest i havent done this since las year and so i dont remember the value of that line outside but i think its 70*

Step-by-step explanation:

reason is because the c is originally 180* but it has more of and angle so the angles obv increases and you can get the angle by multiplying 70*times 7x and divide by 3

i say 3 because of the amount of angles in a triangle and the line outside if i remember correctly is the "angles" of a triangle  and that would be your answer
