Answer:

93% probability of a student taking a calculus class or a statistics class

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this problem building the Venn's diagram of these probabilities.

I am going to say that:

A is the probability that a student takes a calculus class.

B is the probability that a student takes a statistics class.

We have that:

A = a + (A \cap B)

In which a is the probability that a student takes calculus but not statistics and A \cap B is the probability that a student takes both these classes.

By the same logic, we have that:

B = b + (A \cap B)

The probability of taking a calculus class and a statistics class is 0.07

This means that A \cap B = 0.07

The probability of taking a statistics class is 0.90

This means that B = 0.9. So

B = b + (A \cap B)

0.9 = b + 0.07

b = 0.83

The probability of a student taking a calculus class is 0.10

This means that A = 0.1

A = a + (A \cap B)

0.1 = a + 0.07

a = 0.03

What is the probability of a student taking a calculus class or a statistics class

A \cup B = a + b + A \cap B = 0.03 + 0.83 + 0.07 = 0.93

93% probability of a student taking a calculus class or a statistics class

The Pythagorean theorem formula for a triangle is A^2 + B^2 = C^2 where A and B are the sides and C is the hypotenuse.

The sides of the triangle shown are AB and BC and the hypotenuse is AC,

so the correct answer would be:

(AB)2 + (BC)2 = (AC)2, because 25 + 144 = 169

HELP PLEASE!!!!! 50 POINTS!!!!!!!!
ryzh [129]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= -0.08x(x^2-11x+18)

Factor

f(x)= -0.08x(x-9)(x-2)

Using the zero product property to find the zeros

0= -0.08x(x-2)(x-9)

-0.8x =0    x-2 =0  x-9 =0

x=0            x=2           x=9

Multiply out

f(x) =  -0.08 x^3 + 0.88 x^2 - 1.44 x

The highest power is x^3

f(-∞) = -0.08( -∞)^3 = - ( -∞) = ∞

As x goes to -∞  f(x) goes to +∞

f(∞) = -0.08( ∞)^3 = - ( ∞) = -∞

As x goes to ∞  f(x) goes to -∞

Of the students in Jill's grade, 41 students have a pet and the other 7 students do not. What is the ratio of the number of stud
quester [9]

Answer:

The answer is 7 : 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you can to calculate how many students are there in Jill's grade by adding the number of students who have pet with the students without pets :

total = 41 + 7 = 48

Next, you have to find the ratio of students without pets to total students :

7 : 48
