Answer:

90%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of households with one TV = 35% or 0.35

Probability of households with two sets = 39% or 0.39

Probability of households with three or more = 16% or 0.16

The probability of a household with no TV set = 0.10 or 10% (1 - 0.35 - 0.39 - 0.16)

Therefore, the probability of a household with at least one or more sets = 90% (35% + 39% + 16%) or 100% - 10%.

Probability is the chance that something may occur out of many events.  To calculate probability, we divide the number of events by the number of possible outcomes.

Use substitution to solve each system of equations <br> Y=2x-2<br> Y=x+2
Alik [6]
Y = 2x - 2 ⇒ 2x - y = 2  ⇒ 2x - y = 2
y = x + 2  ⇒ x - y = -2   ⇒ <u>2x - 2y = -4</u>
                                                 <u>3y</u> = <u>6</u>

                                                   y = 2

Create a quadratic trinomial with zeros equal to 4 and 5
Ilya [14]

Answer:

x^2 - 9x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 4)(x - 5) (have to do the opposite for it to be positive)

FOIL method: X x X = x^2

-5 x X = -5x

-4 x X = -4x

x^2 - 5x - 4x + 20

-5 - 4 = -9 so...

x^2 - 9x +20 is the answer

A circle has a circumference of 28.26 units. What is the diameter of the circle?
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The diameter of the circle is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because circumference is equal to \pi * d, we can backtrack and use this equation to find diameter. Let's say \pi is equal to 3.14.

28.26 = 3.14d

Divide both sides by 3.14.

9 = d


The diameter of the circle is 9.
