Answer:
129 points
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L and C represent the scores of Luke and Caleb, respectively.
L = 2C -15 . . . . . Luke scored 15 less than twice the number Caleb did
L +C = 201 . . . . . they scored 201 points altogether
Add twice the second equation to the first:
2(L +C) + (L) = 2(201) + (2C -15)
3L +2C = 387 +2C . . . . simplify
3L = 387 . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 2C
L = 387/3 = 129 . . . . . . .divide by 3
Luke scored 129 points.

(a) The probability that an automobile being filled with gasoline will also need an oil change is 0.35; the probability that it
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

0.714 ; 0.556 ; (A1 n A2 n A3) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

P(oil) = 0.35

P(filter) = 0.45

P(oil n filter) = 0.25

1)

P(filter | Oil) = P(oil n filter) / P(oil)

P(filter | Oil) = 0.25 / 0.35 = 0.714

11)

P(Oil | filter) = P(oil n filter) / P(filter)

P(Oil | filter ) = 0.25 / 0.45 = 0.556

Number of red aces = 2

Queen or king = 4 + 4 = 8

Number on card greater than 3 and less than 8 = {4,5,6,7} = 4 card ; for 4 suits = 4 * 4 = 16

Total number of cards in deck = 52

Choosing without replacement :

Hence,

A1 = 2 / 52

A2 = 8 / 51

A3 = 16 / 50

(A1 n A2 n A3) ;this means card common to all three events.

However, (A1 n A2 n A3) = 0 because ;

1.) No red ace card is greater than 3 and less than 8.

11.) An ace card can neither be a king nor a queen
