Answer:

a) 0.0255

b) 0.7050

c) 0.2945

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that one of those sampled saying that Roosevelt was the best president since World War II = 330/2062 = 0.16

Probability that one of those sampled don't mention Roosevelt = (2062 - 330)/2062 = 1732/2062 = 0.84

a) The probability that both adults picked say Franklin Roosevelt was the best president since World War II = (330/2062) × (329/2061) = 0.0255

b) The probability that neither of the two adults say Franklin Roosevelt was the best president since World War II = (1732/2062) × (1731/2061) = 0.7050

c) The probability that at least one of the two adults says Franklin Roosevelt was the best president since World War II = Probability that one of the two adults mention Roosevelt + Probability that the two adults mention Roosevelt

Probability that one of the adults mention Roosevelt = [(330/2062) × (1732/2061)] + [(1732/2062) × (330/2061)] = 0.269

Probability that two of the adults mention Roosevelt has been done in (a) and it is equal to 0.0255

probability that at least one of the two adults says Franklin Roosevelt was the best president since World War II = 0.269 + 0.0255 = 0.2945

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of linear equations Negative 4 x + y = 8 and x minus 5 y = 17?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

(-3, -4).

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + y = 8

x - 5y = 17           Multiply this by 4:

4x - 20y = 68     Add this to the first equation:

-19y = 76

y = 76/-19

y = -4.

Plug this into the second equation:

x - 5(-4) = 17

x = 17 - 20

x = -3.

CHECK this result in equation 1:

-4(-3) + -4 =  8

12 - 4 = 8

8 = 8  <------ OK.

Please help me out please
Oxana [17]

In any trapezoid, the area is given by

A = \dfrac{(B+b)h}{2}

where B and b are the two bases, and h is the height. You're given all these elements already, so you only need to plug the values in:

A = \dfrac{(3+11)\cdot 8}{2} = \dfrac{14\cdot 8}{2} = 7\cdot 8 = 56

An arithmetic sequence has a first term of 6.3 and a second term of 8.8 Which term has a value of 78.8?
slega [8]
First term [ a ] = 6.3

Common difference [ d ] = 8.8 - 6.3 = 2.5 

Using general term formula,

t_{n} = a + (n-1)d

78.8 = 6.3 + (n-1)*2.5

2.5*(n-1) = 72.5 [ Dividing both sides by 2.5 ]

n-1 = 29

n = 30

Hence, 78.8 is the 30th term in the arithmetic series.
