If a worker can do his job in 5 hours, and a student can do the same job in 8 hours, what part of the work is left to finish aft

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Part of work left to finish after two work hours is 7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to calculate their joint work rate

That will be;

1/(1/5 + 1/8) = 1/(13/40) = 40/13

This means that they will complete the task in 40/13 hours

1 whole part takes 40/13

x part will take 2 hours

x * 40/13 = 2

40x = 26

x = 26/40

So the part that will be completed in two hours is 26/40

This means that the part left to complete will be:

1 - 26/40 = 14/40 = 7/20

Answer:

Part a) $AB=15\ cm$

Part b) $AB=11.1\ cm$

Part c) $AB=3/5\ cm$

Part d) $AB=3s\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the question

we know that

To find the length of the image after a dilation, multiply the length of the pre-image by the scale factor

Part a) we have

The scale factor is 5

The length of the pre-image is 3 cm

therefore

The length of the image AB after dilation is

$3(5)=15\ cm$

Part b) we have

The scale factor is 3.7

The length of the pre-image is 3 cm

therefore

The length of the image AB after dilation is

$3(3.7)=11.1\ cm$

Part c) we have

The scale factor is 1/5

The length of the pre-image is 3 cm

therefore

The length of the image AB after dilation is

$3(1/5)=3/5\ cm$

Part d) we have

The scale factor is s

The length of the pre-image is 3 cm

therefore

The length of the image AB after dilation is

$3(s)=3s\ cm$

In a certain clinical study, 15% of participants were classified as heavy smokers, 25% as light-smokers, and the rest as non-smo

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

There is a 28.57% probability that a randomly selected participant who died by the end of the study was a non-smoker.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following probabilities:

A 15% probability that a participant is classified as a heavy smoker.

A 25% probability that a participant is classified as a light smoker.

A 100% - 25% - 15% = 60% probability that a participant is classified as a non smoker.

A x% probability that a non smoker dies.

A 3x% probability that a light smoker dies.

A 5x% probability that a heavy smoker dies.

This can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}$

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

This problem is:

What is the probability of the participant being a non-smoker, given that he died?

P(B) is the probability that the participant is a non smoker. So

$P(B) = 0.6$

P(A/B) is the probability that the participant dies, given that he is a non smoker. So:

$P(A/B) = x$

P(A) is the probability that the participant dies:

$P(A) = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3}$

$P_{1}$ is the probability that a heavy smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{1} = 0.15*5x = 0.75x$

$P_{2}$ is the probability that a light smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{2} = 0.25*3x = 0.75x$

$P_{3}$ is the probability that a non-smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{3} = 0.60*x = 0.60x$

The probability that a participant dies is:

$P(A) = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3} = 0.75x + 0.75x + 0.60x = 2.10x$

The probability of the participant being a non-smoker, given that he died, is:

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.6x}{2.10x} = \frac{0.6}{2.10} = 0.2857$

There is a 28.57% probability that a randomly selected participant who died by the end of the study was a non-smoker.
