Exams are approaching and Helen is allocating time to studying for exams. She feels that with the appropriate amount of studying

, she has an 80% chance of getting an A in Marketing. She also feels that she has a 60% chance of getting an A in Spanish with the appropriate amount of studying. Given the demands on her time, she feels that she has only a 45% chance of getting an A in both classes. What is the probability that Helen does not get an A in either class?

Answer: 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = Event of getting an A in Marketing class.

S = Event of getting an A in Spanish class,

i.e. P(M) = 0.80 , P(S) = 0.60 and P(M∩S)=0.45

Required probability = P(neither M nor S)

= P(M'∩S')

= P(M∪S)'                                 [∵P(A'∩B')=P(A∪B)']

=1- P(M∪S)                               [∵P(A')=1-P(A)]

= 1- (P(M)+P(S)- P(M∩S))   [∵P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)]

= 1- (0.80+0.60-0.45)

= 1- 0.95

= 0.05

hence, the probability that Helen does not get an A in either class= 0.05

Use the matrix tool to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair.3x + 5y = 42 6x + 5y = 54
kobusy [5.1K]
Solutions  

In Matrix we use initially based on systems of linear equations.The matrix method is similar to the method of Elimination as but is a lot cleaner than the elimination method.Solving systems of equations by Matrix Method involves expressing the system of equations in form of a matrix and then reducing that matrix into what is known as Row Echelon Form.<span> 

Calculations 

</span>⇒ <span>Rewrite the linear equations above as a matrix 
</span>
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&42\\6&5&54\\\end{array}\right] 

⇒  Apply to Row₂ : Row₂ - 2 <span>Row₁ 
</span>
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&42\\0&-5&-30\\\end{array}\right] 

⇒ <span>Simplify rows
</span>
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&42\\0&1&6\\\end{array}\right] 

Note: The matrix is now in echelon form.
<span>The steps below are for back substitution.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 and 4/5 of pounds of chicken for serving of 4.

We can also write this as 4.8 pounds of chicken.

To find how much pound of chicken will be needed for a single serving we have to divide 4.8 by 4.

\frac{4.8}{4}  = 1.2 \: pounds \: of \: chicken
