Answer:

54% probability that a person likes Italian food, but not Chinese food.

82% probaility that a person likes at least one of these foods

79% proability that a person likes at most one of these foods

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 person likes Italian food.

B is the probability that a person likes Chinese food.

We have that:

A = a + (A \cap B)

In which a is the probability that a person likes Italian food but not Chinese and A \cap B is the probability that a person likes both Italian and Chinese food.

By the same logic, we have that:

B = b + (A \cap B)

The probability that a person likes both foods is 0.21.

This means that A \cap B = 0.21

The probability that a person likes Chinese food is 0.28

This means that B = 0.28

So

B = b + (A \cap B)

0.28 = b + 0.21

b = 0.07

The probability that a person likes Italian food is 0.75

This means that A = 0.75

So

A = a + (A \cap B)

0.75 = a + 0.21

a = 0.54

Determine the probability that a person likes Italian, but not Chinese

This is a.

54% probability that a person likes Italian food, but not Chinese food.

Determine the probaility that a person likes at least one of these foods

P = a + b + (A \cap B) = 0.54 + 0.07 + 0.21 = 0.82

82% probaility that a person likes at least one of these foods

Determine the proability that a person likes at most one of these foods

Either a person likes at most one of these foods, or it likes both. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1.

0.21 probability it likes both.

Then

0.21 + p = 1

p = 0.79

79% proability that a person likes at most one of these foods

According to the Rational Root Theorem, which function has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x) = 3x^5
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is:

According to the Rational Root Theorem, which function has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x) = 3x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 12?

A).f(x) = 3x5 – 2x4 – 9x3 + x2 – 12

B).f(x) = 3x6 – 2x5 + 9x4 – x3 + 12x

C).f(x) = 12x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 3

D).f(x) = 12x5 – 8x4 + 36x3 – 4x2 + 48

Solution:

The function given to us is:

3x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 12

Find the factors of 12 and consider it as 'p'

The factors of 12 are:

p = +/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6

Now find the factors of 3 and consider it as 'q'

The factors of 3 are:

q = +/- 1 , +/- 3

We know that we write rational terms in p/q form.

Therefore the Rational roots are given by p/q

+/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6 , +/- 1/3 , +/- 2/3 , +/- 4/3

Now we will solve the first function given in part A.

f(x) = 3x^5 – 2x^4 - 9x^3 + x^2 - 12

Again find the factors of 12 and consider it as 'p'

The factors are:

p = +/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6

Now find the factors of 3 and consider it as 'q' .

q = +/- 1 , +/- 3

Rational root are given by p/q

+/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6 , +/- 1/3 , +/- 2/3 , +/- 4/3

Therefore the rational roots of the given function matches the rational roots of the given equation.

Hence the correct option is A

Reduce fraction: a^3+a^2b/5a times 25/3b+3a
Margaret [11]

ANSWER

\frac{5a}{3}

EXPLANATION

The given fractions are:

\frac{{a}^{3}  +  {a}^{2} b}{5a}  \times  \frac{25}{3b + 3a}

We factor to obtain:

\frac{{a}^{2}(a  +   b)}{5a}  \times  \frac{25}{3(a + b)}

We cancel the common factors to get:

\frac{{a}(1)}{1}  \times  \frac{5}{3(1)}

We multiply the numerators and also multiply the denominators to get:

\frac{5a}{3}

Therefore the two fractions simplifies to \frac{5a}{3}
