Answer:  0.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T denotes tater tots and F denotes French fries .

As per given ,

The proportion of students said they liked tater tots : <em>P(T)=</em> 0.30

The proportion of of students said they like French fries : <em>P(F)</em>= 0.15

Since , every one of the students who said they like French fries also said they like tater tots.

i.e. <em>P(T∩F)</em> = 0.15

Now , using addition formula , we have

<em>P(T∪F)= P(T)+P(F)-P(T∩F)</em>

= 0.30+0.15-0.15=0.30

Hence, the proportion of the students responding to the survey said they liked at least one of the two side dishes is 0.30.

Based on the given problem above, the proportion of the students responding to the survey that said that they liked at least one of the two side dishes is 3/10. Because<span> 30% said they like tater tots and all the ones who said they liked fries are the same people then you're only looking at the 30% wherein 30/100 is 3/10 which makes 3/10 the right answer.</span>

Ritu is travelling by a car at a speed of
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

40 min is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we need to convert all the units into SI units

for ritu,

speed= 90km/hr

= 90 × 1km/ 1hour

= 90×1000/3600 m/s

= 25m/s

distance = 120×1000m

time = distance/ speed

= 120000/25

= 4800sec

= 4800/60min

= 80 min

for garima,

distance =120×1000m

speed = 60km/hr

= 60×1000/3600 m/s

=100/6 m/

time = 120000/(100÷6)

= 7200sec

= 7200÷60 min

= 120 min

time difference is 120-80 = 40 min

$2500 in saving account earing 3,5 perccent interest. what was the the total interest earnedin 6 years
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

I=\$525

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

I=P(rt)

where

I is the Final Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest  

t is Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

t=6\ years\\ P=\$2,500\\r=3.5\%=3.5/100=0.035

substitute in the formula above

I=\$2,500(0.035*6)

I=\$525
