A = event the person got the class they wanted
B = event the person is on the honor roll
P(A) = (number who got the class they wanted)/(number total)
P(A) = 379/500
P(A) = 0.758
There's a 75.8% chance someone will get the class they want
Let's see if being on the honor roll changes the probability we just found
So we want to compute P(A | B). If it is equal to P(A), then being on the honor roll does not change P(A).
---------------
A and B = someone got the class they want and they're on the honor roll
P(A and B) = 64/500
P(A and B) = 0.128
P(B) = 144/500
P(B) = 0.288
P(A | B) = P(A and B)/P(B)
P(A | B) = 0.128/0.288
P(A | B) = 0.44 approximately
This is what you have shown in your steps. This means if we know the person is on the honor roll, then they have a 44% chance of getting the class they want.
Those on the honor roll are at a disadvantage to getting their requested class. Perhaps the thinking is that the honor roll students can handle harder or less popular teachers.
Regardless of motivations, being on the honor roll changes the probability of getting the class you want. So Alex is correct in thinking the honor roll students have a disadvantage. Everything would be fair if P(A | B) = P(A) showing that events A and B are independent. That is not the case here so the events are linked somehow.
Answer:
1. 64
2. 72 square feet
3. 31.5 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first one use the equation A=bh.
Plug in your values: A=12.8*5.
Solve: A=64
For the second one multiply 8*3 which gives you 24. Next multiply that by 3 to give you 72 square feet.
For the third one multiply 9 by 3.5 to get 31.5 square feet.
Answer:
40 min
Step-by-step explanation:
find unit rateeee p=problems
8 p= 2 min
8/2=4
so Alison can do 4 math problems per minute
so 160/4= 40 minutes
hope this helps
Answer:
Geometric relationships control the orientation of an element with respect to another element or reference plane. For example, you can define a tangent relationship between a line and an arc. ... For example, a connect relationship and a tangent relationship can be used where an arc meets a line. (make me brainliest)
