Answer: Choice B
Events are not mutually exclusive
The probability of applicant meeting GPA requirement or they volunteer is 65%

===========================================================

Explanation: 

For two events to be "mutually exclusive", it means that they cannot happen at the same time. An example is pulling a black diamond card. In a deck of cards, diamonds are red. 

So the question is: "Is it possible to volunteer and meet the GPA requirements at the same time?" 
The answer is "Yes, because 250 applicants have done so"

This means that the two events "volunteer" and "meet GPA requirements" are not mutually exclusive. This boils things down between choice A or choice B

Now onto calculating the probability
Let,
A = applicant volunteers
B = applicant meets GPA requirements

P(A) = 600/2000 = 0.300
P(B) = 950/2000 = 0.475
P(A and B) = 250/2000 = 0.125

Using those values, we can say....
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
P(A or B) = 0.300 + 0.475 - 0.125
P(A or B) = 0.65
P(A or B) = 65% which is part of the answer

We got 65% so that points to choice B as the final answer

Note: another way to find P(A or B) is to note how 250 meet both requirements so 950-250 = 700 meet the GPA hurdle only, 600-250 = 350 volunteer only, so 700+350+250 = 1300 either meet one requirement or both out of 2000. So 1300/2000 = 0.65 = 65%

Jerry’s rhombus has a base of 15 inches and a height of 9 inches. Charlene’s rhombus has a base and a height that are 13 the bas
neonofarm [45]

Answer:  The area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that the exercise says "\frac{1}{3} times the base and height of Jerry’s rhombus".

The area of a rhombus can be calculated with the following formula:

A=b*a

Where "b" is the length of the base  and "a" is the altitude or the height.

Then, you can calculate the area using the formula shown above.

Therefore, you get:

1. Jerry's rhombus:

A_1=(15\ in)(9\ in)\\\\A_1=135\ in^2

2. Charlene's rhombus:

A_2=(\frac{1}{3}*15\ in)(\frac{1}{3}*9\ in)\\\\A_2=(5\ in)(3\ in)\\\\A_2=15\ in^2

Dividing the area calculated, you get:

\frac{135\ in^2}{15\ in^2}=9

Therefore, you can conclude that the area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.

Help I need to know how to solve for x
lara [203]

Answer:

the answer would be x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

the lines the have 1 line across it equal the same. same for the ones with 2. for example AB has one line across so it also equals CD because it has one line across (in the little octagonal shape). BC has two lines and so does AH so BC=AH

Solve the proportion.<br> 3/6 = 7/d
AysviL [449]

To solve this proportion:

\frac{3}{6} =\frac{7}{d}

Simplify 3/6, it reduces to 1/2

\frac{1}{2} =\frac{7}{d}

Then do the Criss cross method

1d = 7 ×2

d=14

Hope it helps!
