Answer:

0.74

Step-by-step explanation:

Of the 30% of boys, 60% arrive by car, that is

60% of 30% = 0.6 × 0.3 = 0.18

Since 30% of the children at school are boys, then 70% are girls.

Of the 70% of girls, 80% arrive by car, that is

80% of 70% = 0.8 × 0.7 = 0.56

Probability of choosing a child from the school is

P( boy ) or P(girl) = 0.18 + 0.56 = 0.74

Answer:

.74

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you know that 30% are boys and 70% are girls. Then, take 60% of 30% and  70% of 80%. From there you get .74 as the probability of a randomly chosen child having taken a car to school.

The first thing we should know is the definition of commutative property.
 Commutative property:
 The distributive property of multiplication over addition in elementary algebra is that in which the result of a number multiplied by the sum of two or more addends is equal to the sum of the products of each summand by that number. In algebraic terms we have then:
 4 * ((2 * 0.75) + (3)) = (8 * 0.75) + (4 * 3) = 6 + 12 = 18 $
 answer:
 the total cost of these parts is $ 18

Make denomenators the same
common denom is 2n²

multiply 3/2n by n/n
mulitply 1/n² by 2/2

we get
\frac{3n}{2n^2}+\frac{2}{2n^2}=\frac{n-2}{2n^2}
combine fractions
\frac{3n+2}{2n^2}=\frac{n-2}{2n^2}
multiply both sides by 2n²
2n+2=n-2
minus n both sides
n+2=-2
minus 2 both sides
n=-4
