George believes the Art Club students at his school have an unfair advantage in being assigned to the art class they request. He

asked 500 students at his school the following questions: "Are you in the Art Club?" and "Did you get the art class you requested?" The results are shown in the table below:
Art Club Not in Art Club Total
Received art class requested 100 265 365
Did not get art class requested 65 70 135
Total 165 335 500


Help George determine if all students at his school have an equal opportunity to get into the art class they requested. Show your work, and explain your process for determining the fairness of the class assignment process.

Answer:

  class assignment seems to discriminate against Art Club members

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting the requested assignment given that the student was in Art Club was ...

  P(got class | art club) = P(got class & art club)/P(art club)

  P(got class | art club) = (100/500)/(165/500) ≈ 60.6%

__

  P(got class | not club) = P(got class & not club)/P(not club)

  P(got class | not club) = (265/500)/(335/500) ≈ 79.1%

It looks like George's theory may be incorrect, as a significantly greater percentage of non-club students got their requested class than did club students. The class assignment process and art club membership are not independent, suggesting an unfair disadvantage for club students.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

$20.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the Bayside Bugle charges $18 for the first 20 words and there is more than 20 words in the ad you take 27-20 and you get 7 additional words.

Now we know that we already have to pay $18 for the first $20 words.

Since we have 7 additional words we multiply that by 0.35 cents and you get $2.45.

Next we add up our two numbers (2.45+18) we get the total of $20.45 fro a 27-word ad.

I hope this helps :)

umka21 [38]
If Keith is represented by x, and Joe is three less than Keith, Troy is represented by x-3. 
Then, we know that Joe exercises for twice the amount of time as Troy, we multiply the expression for Joe by two. 

Keith = x
Troy = x-3
Joe = 2(x-3)

Please help i have to get my grades up before Monday so i can go to public school (they are bad cause of moving)

D. Expenses for a birthday party are not a fixed expense.

By definition, a fixes expense is a bill or something that won't change in the amount of payment. A car payment will always be the same each month; the mortgage will always be the same and car insurance will always be the same each month.
