A survey is made to determine the number of households having electric appliances in a certain city. It is found that 75% have r

adios (R), 65% have electric irons (I), 55% have electric toasters (T), 50% have irons and radios, 40% have radios and toasters, 30% have irons and toasters, and 20% have all three. Determine the probability that a household has at least one of these appliances

Answer:

The probability that a household has at least one of these appliances is 0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of households having radios P(R) = 75% = 0.75

Percentage of households having electric irons P(I) = 65% = 0.65

Percentage of households having electric toasters P(T) = 55% = 0.55

Percentage of household having iron and radio P(I∩R) = 50% = 0.5

Percentage of household having radios and toasters P(R∩T) = 40% = 0.40

Percentage of household having iron and toasters P(I∩T) = 30% = 0.30

Percentage of household having all three P(I∩R∩T) = 20% = 0.20

Probability of households having at least one of the appliance can be calculated using the rule:

P(at least one of the three) = P(R) +P(I) + P(T) - P(I∩R) - P(R∩T) - P(I∩T) + P(I∩R∩T)

P(at least one of the three)=0.75 + 0.65 + 0.55 - 0.50 - 0.40 - 0.30 + 0.20  P(at least one of the three) = 0.95

The probability that a household has at least one of these appliances is 0.95

A survey of 1,168 tourists visiting Orlando was taken. Of those surveyed:
sesenic [268]

Answer:

624 tourists only visited the Magic Kindgom.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must build the Venn's Diagram of this set.

I am going to say that:

-The set A represents the tourists that visited LEGOLAND

-The set B represents the tourists that visited Universal Studios

-The set C represents the tourists that visited Magic Kingdown.

-The value d is the number of tourists that did not visit any of these parks, so: d = 74

We have that:

A = a + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)

In which a is the number of tourists that only visited LEGOLAND, A \cap B is the number of tourists that visited both LEGOLAND and Universal Studies, A \cap C is the number of tourists that visited both LEGOLAND and the Magic Kingdom. and A \cap B \cap C is the number of students that visited all these parks.

By the same logic, we have:

B = b + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C)

C = c + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)

This diagram has the following subsets:

a,b,c,d,(A \cap B), (A \cap C), (B \cap C), (A \cap B \cap C)

There were 1,168 tourists suveyed. This means that:

a + b + c + d + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 1,168

We start finding the values from the intersection of three sets.

The problem states that:

16 tourists had visited all three theme parks. So:

A \cap B \cap C = 16

91 tourists had visited both LEGOLAND and Universal Studios. So:

(A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 91

(A \cap B) = 91-16

(A \cap B) = 75

68 tourists had visited both the Magic Kingdom and Universal Studios. So

(B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 68

(B \cap C) = 68-16

(B \cap C) = 52

87 tourists had visited both the Magic Kingdom and LEGOLAND

(A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 87

(A \cap C) = 87-16

(A \cap C) = 71

295 tourists had visited Universal Studios

B = 295

B = b + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C)

295 = b + 52 + 75 + 16

b + 143 = 295

b = 152

266 tourists had visited LEGOLAND

A = 266

A = a + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)

266 = a + 75 + 71 + 16

a + 162 = 266

a = 104

How many tourists only visited the Magic Kingdom (of these three)?

This is the value of c, the we can find in the following equation:

a + b + c + d + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 1,168

104 + 152 + c + 74 + 75 + 71 + 52 + 16 = 1,168

c + 544 = 1,168

c = 624

624 tourists only visited the Magic Kindgom.

Find the measure of angle E
Bad White [126]

Answer:

E = 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

Exterior angle B = 116°

So ABC = 180° - 116°

= 64°

In triangle ABC , AC = BC ( given )

So angle BAC = angle ABC = 64° ( Opposite angle of two same sides of a triangle are equal )

According to Angle Sum Property of a Triangle ,

BAC + ABC + ACB = 180°

=> ACB + 64° + 64° = 180°

=> ACB = 180° - 128°

= 52°

Also , angle ACB = angle ECD = 52° ( Vertical Opposite Angles are equal )

In triangle ECD ,

EC = ED ( given )

So, angle ECD = angle EDC = 52° ( Opposite angle of two same sides of a triangle are equal )

According to Angle Sum Property of a Triangle ,

ECD + EDC + CED = 180°

=> 52° + 52° + CED = 180°

=> CED = 180° - 104°

= 76°
