Answer:

Hello  your questions is incomplete attached below is the missing part of the question

answer : A )  0.647 ,  (B) 0.353,  (C) students are more likely to spend the money than to have kept it

Step-by-step explanation:

from the attached table below

Given data :

Total number of students = Number of students who spent money + number of students who kept money

Total number of students = (33+13 ) + (18 + 27 ) =  91

p(Number of students given four quarters) = (33 +18 ) / 91 = 51/91

p( number of students who spent money ) = ( 33 +13 ) / 91 = 46/91

p( number of students who saved money ) = (18 +27 ) / 91 = 45 /91

p( number of students who spent money and given four quarters ) = 33/91

p( number of students who saved money and given four quarters ) = 18/91

A) The probability of randomly selecting a student who spent the money and also given four quarters

= p ( 33/91 | 51/91 )

= 33/91 * 91/51

= 33/51 = 0.647

B ) The probability of randomly selecting a student who kept the money and given that the student was given four quarters

= p ( 18/91 | 51/91 )

= 18/91 * 91/51

= 18 /51 = 0.353

C) students are more likely to spend the money than to have kept it

Ostrovityanka [42]
110 horses can be found in one day with 44 bales of hay.  If each horse needs 2/5 bales of hay each day, just convert 2/5 into a decimal (0.4) and divide 44 by 0.4 to get 110.  (That's a lot of horses!)

Which strategy best explains how to solve this problem?
Rufina [12.5K]
This is a geometric sequence because each term is twice the value of the previous term.  So this is what would be called the common ratio, which in this case is 2.  Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:

a(n)=ar^(n-1), a(n)=nth value, a=initial value, r=common ratio, n=term number

In this case we have r=2 and a=1 so

a(n)=2^(n-1)  so on the sixth week he will run:

a(6)=2^5=32

He will run 32 blocks by the end of the sixth week.

Now if you wanted to know the total amount he runs in the six weeks, you need the sum of the terms and the sum of a geometric sequence is:

s(n)=a(1-r^n)/(1-r)  where the variables have the same values so

s(n)=(1-2^n)/(1-2)

s(n)=2^n-1 so 

s(6)=2^6-1

s(6)=64-1

s(6)=63 blocks

So he would run a total of 63 blocks in the six weeks.
