8 0

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify the first expression.

Distribute.

1/4(8y-12) = 1/4 * 8y + 1/4 * -12

8y * 1/4 = 8y / 4 = 2y

-12 * 1/4 = -12 / 4 = -3

1/4(8y-12) = 2y - 3

2y - 12 != 2y - 3

So it is not equivalent.

2. In a given country, records show that of the registered voters, 45% are Democrats, 35% are Republicans, and 20% are independe
Kitty [74]

Answer:

P(R) = 0.14

P(I) = 0.16

P(D) = 0.315

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Democrat = D

Republican = R

Independent = I

If 45% are Democrats, 35% are Republicans, and 20% are independents, then

Total registered voters = 100

 In an election, 70% of the Democrats, 40% of the Republicans, and 80% of the independents voted in favor of a parks and recreation bond proposal. That is,

D = 0.7 × 45 = 31.5

R = 0.4 × 35 = 14

I = 0.8 × 20 = 16

 If a registered voter chosen at random is found to have voted in favor of the bond, what is the probability that the voter is

a Republican:

P(R) = 14 /100 = 0.14

an Independent

P(I) = 16/100 = 0.16

a Democrat

P(D) = 31.5/100 = 0.315
