1. There were 11 yards mowed. Each yard is represented by an x on the line plot.
2. The most amount of gas used on any one yard was 5/8 of a gallon. The least amount of gas used was 1/8 of a gallon. The difference is (5/8)-(1/8)= (4/8)= 1/2 gallon

According to a survey, 60 % of the residents of a city oppose a downtown casino. Of these 60 % about 8 out of 10 strongly opp

katrin [286]

Answer:

(a) 0.48

(b) 0.20

(c) it is not unusual for a radomly selected resident to oppose the casino and strongly oppose the casino.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Find the probability that a randomly selected resident opposes the casino and strongly opposes the casino.

The probability that a radomly selected resident opposes the casino and strongly opposes the cassino is the product of the two probabilities, that a resident opposes the casino and that it strongly opposes the casino (once it is in the first group) as it is shown below.

Use this notation:

Probability that a radomly selected resident opposes the casino: P(A)

Probability that a resident who opposes the casino strongly opposes it: P(B/A), because it is the probability of event B given the event A

i) Determine the <em>probability that a radomly selected resident opposes the casino</em>, P(A)

Probability = number of favorable outcomes / number of possible outcomes

P(A) is <em>given as 60%</em>, which in decimal form is 0.60

ii) Next, determine,the <em>probability that a resident who opposes the casino strongly opposes it</em>, P(B/A):

It is given as 8 out of 10 ⇒ P(B/A) = 8/10

iii) You want the probability of both events, which is the joint probability or intersection: P(A∩B).

So, you can use the definition of conditional probability:

P(B/A) = P(A∩B) / P(A)

iv) From which you can solve for P(A∩B)

P(A∩B) = P(B/A)×P(A) = (8/10)×(0.60) = 0.48

(b) Find the probability that a randomly selected resident who opposes the casino does not strongly oppose the casino.

In this case, you just want the complement of the probability that <em>a radomly selected resident who opposes the casino does strongly oppose the casino</em>, which is 1 - P(B/A) = 1 - 8/10 = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2.

(c) Would it be unusual for a randomly selected resident to oppose the casino and strongly oppose the casino?

You are being asked about the joint probability (PA∩B), which you found in the part (a) and it is 0.48.

That is almost 0.50 or half of the population, so you conclude it is not unusual for a radomly selected resident to oppose the casino and strongly oppose the casino.

The circle below is centered at the origin and has a radius of 4. What is its equation?

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

C) x^2 + y^2 = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>Find the equation </u></h2>

since the radius is 4 this means that anywhere from the center of the circle to the edge of the circle is 4. hence :

place the horizontal line of the radius where y = 0 .

this means that if y = 0 , then x = 4

therefore :

x^2 + y^2

4^2 + 0^2

= 16

<h3><u>hence the answer is C ) x^2 + y^2 = 16</u></h3>

Some carpet cleaning costs are 1 room for $125, 2 rooms for $175, 3 rooms for $225. and 4 rooms for $275.00.Find and interpret t

Free_Kalibri [48]

First calculate the hourly rate, which is the difference of cleaning 2 and 1 rooms:
175-125=50

then calculate the initial value by subtracting the hourly rate from the "1 room" cost:
125-50=75

The initial cost might be something like driving to the place (which is only necessary once), while the rate covers work time or cleaning utensils used.
