Find P (Junior|Girl) Hint: P(A and B)

Mathematics

<h3>Answer:  1/6</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

There are two methods to approach this type of problem.

-------------------------------------

Method 1

A = junior

B = girl

P(A) = probability of selecting a junior

P(B) = probability of selecting a girl

P(B) = (number of girls)/(number total)

P(B) = (4+7+3+4)/(4+4+5+7+2+3+1+4)

P(B) = 18/30

P(B) = 9/15

P(A and B) = probability of selecting a girl who is a junior

P(A and B) = (number of girl juniors)/(number total)

P(A and B) = 3/30

P(A and B) = 1/10

P(A given B) = P(A and B)/P(B)

P(A given B) = (1/10) divided by (9/15)

P(A given B) = (1/10) times (15/9)

P(A given B) = (1*15)/(10*9)

P(A given B) = 15/90

P(A given B) = 1/6

-------------------------------------

Method 2

This method doesn't involve dividing two fractions which could get messy, which is why I find this the easier route. Since we are given the person is a girl, this means we only need to focus on the "girls" column. There are 3 who are juniors out of 4+7+3+4 = 18 total. The probability of selecting a girl junior is 3/18 = 1/6

Find the value of X, Z and Y.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

x = 5; y = 138, z= 42

Step-by-step explanation:

4x- 17 = 3 [ opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal]

4x = 3+ 17 = 20; X= 20/4 = 5

138 + Z = 180( angle on a straight line)

Z is an alternate angles to the remaining angle off 138 forming the straight line.

z= 180-138 = 42 degrees

Y = 138 [ opposite angles of a regular quadilareral been equal]
