In a certain community, 36 percent of the families own a dog and 22 percent of the families that own a dog also own a cat. In ad
zysi [14]

Answer:  a) 0.0792   b) 0.264

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Event D = Families own a dog .

Event C = families own a cat .

Given : Probability that families own a dog : P(D)=0.36

Probability that families own a dog also own a cat : P(C|D)=0.22

Probability that families own a cat : P(C)= 0.30

a) Formula to find conditional probability :

P(B|A)=\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}\\\\\Rightarrow P(A\cap B)=P(B|A)\times P(A)   (1)

Similarly ,

P(C\cap D)=P(C|D)\times P(D)\\\\=0.22\times0.36=0.0792

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected family owns both a dog and a cat : 0.0792

b) Again, using (2)

P(D|C)=\dfrac{P(C\cap D)}{P(C)}\\\\=\dfrac{0.0792}{0.30}=0.264

Hence, the conditional probability that a randomly selected family owns a dog given that it owns a cat = 0.264

Solve the system of equations. y = -5x + 24 y = 4x - 21 a. ( -5, -1) c. ( -1, 5) b. ( 5, -1) d. No solution
Svetlanka [38]

y = -5x + 24

y = 4x - 21

Since both of these equations are equal to Y, theyre equal to each other.

So we can make an equation with y = -5x + 24 in one side and y = 4x - 21 on the other.

-5x + 24 = 4x - 21

Now in order to get the value of x we need to isolate it in one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 24 from both sides of the equation:

-5x + 24 - 24 = 4x - 21 - 24

-5x = 4x - 45

Now we subtract 4x from both sides so the 4x shift to the other side

-5x - 4x = 4x - 4x - 45

-9x = -45

Finally divide both sides by -9 so x is by itself

(-9)÷(-9x) = -(45)÷(-9)

x = 5

Since we did all of this to BOTH sides of the equation, both sides are still equal to each other and the equation still is true.

Now apply x = 5 to either of the initial equations to find the value of Y

y = -5x + 24 or y = 4x - 21

(I'll do both but u only need one)

y = -5(5) + 24

y = -25 + 24

y = -1

y = 4(5) - 21

y = 20 - 21

y = -1

Either way, X is 5 and Y is -1

Answer (5, -1)
