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

What is the slope of<br> the line parallel to 3x +<br> y = 12?
Doss [256]

Answer:

slope = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Rearrange eqn into slope intercept form

slope intercept form: y = mx + b

where...

m = the slope

b = the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y axis)

3x + y = 12

y = -3x+12

2) Know parallel rule. A line that runs parallel has the same slope but a different y-intercept

So the slope is: -3
