Answer:

P(A∩B) = 0.522

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the event that a puppy is adopted and B the probability that a puppy live 7 or more years

So, the probability P(A∩B) that a randomly selected puppy in the shelter will get adopted and live 7 or more years is:

P(A∩B) = P(A)*P(B/A)

Because A and B are not independents.

Then, the probability P(A) that a puppy is adopted is 58% and the probability P(B/A) that a puppy live 7 or more years given that the puppy is adopted is 90%.

Finally, replacing the values, we get:

P(A∩B) = 0.58*0.9 = 0.522

It means that the 52.2% of the puppies are adopted and live 7 or more years.

Find the distance between points P(2, 2) and Q(7, 4) to the nearest tenth.
kirill115 [55]

The formula of a distance between two points:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

We have the points P(2, 2) ans Q(7, 4). Substitute:

|PQ|=\sqrt{(7-2)^2+(4-2)^2}=\sqrt{5^2+2^2}=\sqrt{25+4}=\sqrt{29}\approx5.4

<h3>Answer: PQ = 5.4</h3>

Select the situation in which one quantity is changing at a constant rate in relation to the other quantity.
arsen [322]
Choice A is the only one that is changing at a constant rate. The reason is that for all three other choices the new rate is based on a different amount after the percent has been applied or the doubling of the ants has been applied. The price per day for the lunch Is constant because whatever the number of days is the amount would always stay the same for each of those days.

Find the common factor and rewrite. Type your answer in the box. Do not use any spaces.
finlep [7]

Common factor is 4X

Rewriting the term we get: 4X(Y + 2Z)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the common factor of the expression: 4XY + 8XZ

A common factor is the term that is common in all the terms of the expression.

In the given expression the common factor is: 4X because it is common in both terms

4XY + 8XZ

=4X(Y + 2Z)

So, Common factor is 4X

Rewriting the term we get: 4X(Y + 2Z)
