Answer:

The probability that they will both be on time is 12/25.

Step-by-step explanation:

John is late 20% of the time.

So, he is prompt 80% of the time.

Ted is late 40% of the time.

So, he is prompt 60% of the time.

Since, both the events are independent,

p(John be on time ∩ Ted be on time) = p(John be on time) × p(Ted be on time)

= \frac{80}{100} × \frac{60}{100}

= 0.80 × 0.60

= 0.48 or 48%

=\frac{12}{25}

Hence, the probability that they will both be on time is 12/25.

on a lake, Carol rowed a boat for 1/8 mile. Then luke rowed the boat for 3/8 mile. how far did carol and like row in all? simpli
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Total = \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Carol = \frac{1}{8}

Luke = \frac{3}{8}

Required

How far did they row together

To do this, we simply add the distance they both covered.

Total = Carol + Luke

This gives;

Total = \frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{8}

Take LCM

Total = \frac{1+3}{8}

Total = \frac{4}{8}

Simplify

Total = \frac{1}{2}

<em>Hence, they both rowed 1/2 mile</em>

ASAP!! Three consecutive numbers have a sum of 156. What are the 3 numbers?
ryzh [129]

For this problem, all you need to do is find the three #'s that add up to 156.

So, lets look at the answers and add them up.

A. 50, 52, 54

50 + 52 + 54 = 156

B. 51,52,53

51 + 52 + 53 = 156

C. 49,50,51

49 + 50 + 51 = 150

D. 49,51,53

49 + 51 + 53 = 153

We get the answers (50,52,54) and (51,52,53)

Now, consecutive numbers are numbers that in order, like 1,2,3.

Therefore, the answer is (51,52,53)
