A university has 24000 undergraduate and 6500 graduate students. A survey of student opinion concerning health care benefits for
domestic partners of students selects 2400 of the 24000 undergraduate students at random and then separately selects 650 of the 6500 graduate students at random. The 3100 students chosen make up the sample. (a) What is the probability that any of the 24000 undergraduates is in your random sample of 2400 undergraduates selected?(b) What is the probability that any of the 6500 graduate students is in your random sample of 650 graduate students selected?

All exercises involve the same concept, so I'll show you how to do the first, then you can apply the exact same logic to all the others.
The first thing you need to know is that, when a certain quantity multiplies a parenthesis, you can distribute that number to every element in the parenthesis. This means that
So, is multiplying the parenthesis involving
and
, and we distributed it:
multiplies both
and
in the final result.
Secondly, you have to know how to recognize like terms, because they are the only terms you can sum. Two terms can be summed if they have the same literal expression. So, for example, you cannot sum , and neither
exponents count.
But you can su, for example,
or
So, take for example exercise 9:
We distribute the 1.2 through the first parenthesis:
And you can distribute the negative sign through the second parenthesis (it counts as a -1 to distribute):
So, the expression becomes
Now sum like terms:

Step-by-step explanation:
Two years ago, Sally had 5,000 dogs in her dog shelter. Now she has 24,575 dogs. The rate of change is 391.5 % increase
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that Two years ago, Sally had 5,000 dogs in her dog shelter
Now she has 24,575 dogs
To find: rate of change
A rate of change is a rate that describes how one quantity changes in relation to another quantity
<h3><u>Steps to follow:</u></h3>- First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.
- Increase = New Number - Original Number.
- Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.
- % change = Increase ÷ Original Number x 100
Thus the rate of change is 391.5 % increase
