Answer: C) P(blue) = 70%, P(green) = 30%, P(blue and green) = 21%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given probabilities P(A) AND P(B) are independent, the probability that both events to occur is given by:
P(A)∩P(B)
thus from the example, independent events will be:
P(blue)=70%, P(green)=30%, P(blue and green)=21%
Because:
P(blue)∩P(green)=0.7×0.3=0.21=21%
Answer: 240 people get the news from social media
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the number of people who get their news from social media to the number of people who their news elsewhere is 3:7
Total ratio is the sum of the proportion of those that get their news from social media and those that got their news elsewhere.
It becomes 3+7 = 10
Total number of people in the town is 800
To determine the number of people that got their news from social media, we will divide the proportion of those that get their news from social media by the total ratio and multiply by the total number of people in the town. It becomes
3/10 × 800 = 240
Because this is a second degree equation you will have 2 solutions. When you take the square root of a number you have to account for both the positive and negative roots. Since the square root of 289 is 17 then your solutions are +17 and -17.
