Answer:  0.31

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A denotes the event that the students report drinking alcohol and B denotes the students report using some type of tobacco product .

Given : P(A) =0.84   ; P(B)=0.33    and        P(A∪B)=0.86

We know that P(A\cap B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cup B)

Then, the probability that the student both drunk alcohol and used tobacco in the past month is given by :-

 P(A\cap B)=0.84+0.33-0.86=0.31

Hence, the probability that the student both drunk alcohol and used tobacco in the past month = 0.31

Math help will give brainliest what is X and M angle A
Anna [14]
Supplementary = 180 degrees...

A + B = 180

3x + 12 + 7x + 38 = 180

10x + 50 = 180

10 x = 130

x = 13 

To find the A just substitute x in...

 
3 ( 13) + 12  

A = 51

To check substitute the x..

A + B = 180

3(13) + 12 + 7(13) + 38 = 180
        51 + 129 = 180
            180 = 180
