Answer:

P(B)= 17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The audience of the magic show is conformed by a total of 120 people, 52 of which are female and 68 are men.

Within the audience there is a school class of 37, of these students, 17 are female and 20 are male.

If a random member of the audience is selected as a volunteer:

Let "A" represent the event that "the selected volunteer is a student of the class"

And "B" the event that "the selected student is female"

You have to calculate the probability of the selected volunteer being female, given that it is a member of the school class.

Symbolically:

P(B|A)

Using the formula of conditional probabilities you can calculate it as:

P(B|A)= \frac{P(AnB)}{P(A)}

P(A∩B)= P(A)*P(B)= (\frac{37}{120} )*(\frac{17}{20} )= \frac{629}{2400}= 0.26

P(A)= \frac{37}{120} = 0.308

P(B|A)= \frac{P(AnB)}{P(A)}= \frac{629/2400}{37/120} = \frac{17}{20} = 0.85

As you can see the probability of the event "The volunteer is female given that it was a student of the school class" means that you already know the selected volunteer was a student and only needed to calculate the probability of that student being female.

P(B)= 17/20

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Angle ABF is 120°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are used to get the measure of angle ABG (3x) and FBE (2x) and all of those added together are 180. Then you use PEMDAS to get x. Then you find ABF by multiplying 3 by 30 (what you get when you use PEMDAS to find x) then you add 30 to that and you get 120.

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the mean of the data

3+4+4+5 = 16

16/4 = 4

Find the distance of each data to the mean

4-3 =  1

5-4= 1

4-4 = 0

4-4 = 0

Now find the mean of those

1+1+0+0 = 2

2/4

MAD = 0.5

What is the x and y intercept of the parabola y=x^2-6x+10 and ow do you graph the equation
Mazyrski [523]
The x- intercept is where y = 0 on the graph and the y- intercept is where x= 0 on the graph. When X=0, all the terms, except for the constant are equal to zero, thus the y- intercept is the constant. y=10 when x=0. Use the quadratic formula to find the x value where y=0. 
x= (-b +or- sqrt(b^2 -4ac))/2a

y=ax^2 +bx +c

The answer for the x- int is imaginary. This happens because 10 is the parabola's minimum value and it never touches the x- axis. y-int is 10
