Answer:
i) Probability that both candidates employed are women = 5/14
ii) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = 5/8
iii) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman = 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the probability that a man is employed be P(M) = 3/8
Probability that a woman is employed P(W) = 5/8
a) Probability that both candidates employed are women = (5/8) × (4/7) = 5/14
b) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = (probability that first candidate is a man and second candidate is a woman) + (probability that first candidate is a woman & second candidate is a woman)
= (3/8)(5/7) + (5/8)(4/7) = (15/56) + (20/56) = 35/56 = 5/8
c) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman
Given that the second candidate was a women, means that the first candidate-women was selected among other four women.
Probability = (4/8)/(5/8) = 4/5
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
- when you divide 7/6 by 2, you have to make the 2 into a fraction; which would be 2/1.
- you would flip the 2/1 to 1/2, and make the divide sign into a multiplication sign.
- then just multiply! hope this helps! :)
Answer:
$105.25
Step-by-step explanation:
$0.35 x 115 = $40.25
$40.25 + $65 = $105.25
Have a great day!
Answer:
D. The constant 250 represents the average collection when no seniors ride.
Step-by-step explanation:
A -- the entire expression represents the driver's pay, not just the constant 250.
B -- collections continue to increase as x goes up, so 250 is the minimum, not the maximum.
C -- x is the number of seniors; 250 is in units of collections (dollars?), not numbers of seniors.
D -- indeed, 250 is the "y-intercept" of the expression, hence the collection when no seniors ride.
