You want to find P(\text{no exercise}\mid\text{woman}); that is, given that you randomly choose from the pool of women, the probability that she does not exercise.

By definition of conditional probability,

P(\text{no exercise}\mid\text{woman})=\dfrac{P(\text{no exercise AND woman})}{P(\text{woman})}

496 of the total 1026 people are woman, and 341 of the 1026 people are women and do not exercise, so

P(\text{no exercise}\mid\text{woman})=\dfrac{\frac{341}{1026}}{\frac{496}{1026}}=\dfrac{341}{496}=0.6875\approx0.688

A simpler way of doing this is to look at what's called the marginal distribution of women in the table. Basically this comes down to ignoring all but the data pertaining to the women. There's a total of 496 women, and 341 of them do not exercise. So the probability that a given woman does not exercise is 341/496.

Melissa is planning a rectangular vegetable garden with a square patch for tomatoes
astra-53 [7]

The expressions for the length and the width of the rectangular garden are <u>3x + 2 feet</u>, and <u>x + 5 feet</u> respectively where x is the length of the square patch for tomatoes.

A square is a quadrilateral with all four sides equal, and all four angles at 90°, whereas a rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite pair of sides equal, and all four angles at 90°.

In the question, we are informed that Melissa is planning a rectangular vegetable garden with a square patch for tomatoes.

The side of the square is given to be x feet.

We are asked to write expressions for the length and width of the rectangular garden.

For the length of the rectangle:-

We are informed that she wants the length of the garden to exceed three times the length of the tomato patch by 2 feet.

Thus, the length of the garden can be shown as the expression <u>3x + 2 feet</u>.

For the width of the rectangle:-

We are informed that she also wants the garden's width to exceed the width of the tomato patch by 5 feet.

Thus, the width of the garden can be shown as the expression <u>x + 5 feet</u>.

Thus, the expressions for the length and the width of the rectangular garden are <u>3x + 2 feet</u>, and <u>x + 5 feet</u> respectively where x is the length of the square patch for tomatoes.

Simplify: 3 . 3^2 + 8 ÷ 2 - (4 + 3) A: 32 B: 24 C: 23 D: 30
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

its none of these answers ;-;

Step-by-step explanation:

3^2 + 8 ÷ 2 - (4 + 3)

we do what's in parentheses first. (pemdas)

so now we have, 3^2 + 8 ÷ 2 - 7

next exponents, 3^2=9

9 + 8 ÷ 2 - 7

next division, 8÷2=4

9 + 4 - 7

next addition, 9+4=13

13-7

finally subtraction, 13-7=6

final answer: 6
