Answer:

3. 60% probability the student is over the age of 21.4

4. 4.17% probability Biff was selected if you know the student selected was over the age of 21.

5. 0% probability Biff was selected if you know the student selected was 21 or younger

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcoes.

In this question:

40 students

24 over the age of 21.

16 are 21 or younger.

3. Find the probability the student is over the age of 21.

24 of the 40 students are over the age of 21.

24/40 = 0.6

60% probability the student is over the age of 21.4

4. Find the probability Biff was selected if you know the student selected was over the age of 21.

24 students over the age of 21, one of which is Biff.

1/24 = 0.0417

4.17% probability Biff was selected if you know the student selected was over the age of 21.

5. Find the probability Biff was selected if you know the student selected was 21 or younger

Biff is not 21 or younger, he is over 21, so there are no desired outcomes.

So, 0% probability Biff was selected if you know the student selected was 21 or younger

Find the Domain and Range of the following: (6.-1) (-2.2) (18,-1) (-2,3) Domain: Range: Is this relation a function?​
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Domain: {-2,6,18}

Range: {-1,2,3}

This relation is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is all of the x values given listed in order from least to greatest and not repeating any numbers. The range is the same thing, but with the y values given. This is not a function because multiple ordered pairs have more than one output for the input. Let's take -2 in these ordered pairs. It has two different outputs, 3 and 2. Because of this, it is not a function.

Hope this helps!!

Hannah earned $1536 in 8 years on an investment at a 4% annual simple interest rate. How much was Hannah’s investment? $4800 $30
Nonamiya [84]

Simple interest calculates interest on initial amount only. The investment by Hannah was : Option A: $4800

<h3>How to calculate simple interest amount if rate of interest is R% annually?</h3>

Suppose that the initial amount of investment is P

And the rate of simple interest is R% annually,

And the time of investment is T years.

Then, the amount of simple interest is calculated as:

I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}

For the given case, let the initial investment Hannah made was of $P

Then, the time of investment is T = 8 years, R% = 4%, and given that Hannah earned interest I = $1536

Putting values in the above formula, we get;

I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}\\\\1536 = \dfrac{P \times 8 \times 4}{100}\\\\P = \dfrac{153600}{32} = 4800

Thus,

The investment by Hannah was : Option A: $4800
