Answer:
(E) 0.71
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call A the event that a student has GPA of 3.5 or better, A' the event that a student has GPA lower than 3.5, B the event that a student is enrolled in at least one AP class and B' the event that a student is not taking any AP class.
So, the probability that the student has a GPA lower than 3.5 and is not taking any AP classes is calculated as:
P(A'∩B') = 1 - P(A∪B)
it means that the students that have a GPA lower than 3.5 and are not taking any AP classes are the complement of the students that have a GPA of 3.5 of better or are enrolled in at least one AP class.
Therefore, P(A∪B) is equal to:
P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)
Where the probability P(A) that a student has GPA of 3.5 or better is 0.25, the probability P(B) that a student is enrolled in at least one AP class is 0.16 and the probability P(A∩B) that a student has a GPA of 3.5 or better and is enrolled in at least one AP class is 0.12
So, P(A∪B) is equal to:
P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)
P(A∪B) = 0.25 + 0.16 - 0.12
P(A∪B) = 0.29
Finally, P(A'∩B') is equal to:
P(A'∩B') = 1 - P(A∪B)
P(A'∩B') = 1 - 0.29
P(A'∩B') = 0.71
The expression of the problem is, 8x.
where "x" stands for the number of dogs. so you would then substitute x with 12. Then you would solve the problem to get your answer.(8•12)
Answer:
x = 11.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles of any triangle must add up to 180°. Since we have the expressions for each angle: 5x, 8x, and (2x +9), we can solve for the variable of 'x' by adding the expressions together and setting them equal to 180:
5x + 8x + (2x +9) = 180
Combine like terms: 15x + 9 = 180
Use inverse operations: 15x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9
15x = 171 or x = 11.4
Check: 5(11.4) + 8(11.4) + 2(11.4) + 9 = 57 + 91.2 + 22.8 + 9 = 180
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up as a proportion:
, insert given values
, cross multiple
36*?=30*12
36*?=360, divide both sides by 36 to get the missing side (?) by itself
?=10
