-7x + 6 = 27

Subtract 6.

-7x = 21

Divide -7 by both sides.

x = -3

in 2019 there were 16 named storms, of which 8 grew into hurricanes and 5 were major. What fraction of hurricanes were major?

olga2289 [7]

There were 16 total storms, meaning our denominator is 16. Since 8 grew into hurricanes, we can leave that alone. Since 5 out of 16 storms were major, 5 is our numerator.

5/16 storms were major because 8 were hurricanes and the other 3 were other kinds of storms. As a decimal conversion, about 31% of these storms were major.

How to find the percentage conversion:

Step 1: We take the fraction 5/16.

Step 2: Since our numerator is 5 and the default denominator is a maximum of 100, we can multiply 5 by 100.

5 x 100 = 500

Step 3: We can divide 100 by 16 to get our decimal conversion.

100 divided by 16 will give us 31.25, which also is representative of 31 and 1/4 added together.

Your final answer: With there being 16 storms, 5 of these storms are major (5/16). In terms of if there were 100 total storms, about 3/10 of these storms were major.

1500 customers hold a VISA card; 500 hold an American Express card; and, 75 hold a VISA and an American Express. What is the pro

alex41 [277]

Answer:

There is 15% probability that a customer chosen at random holds a VISA card, given that the customer has an American Express card.

$P(VISA \:| \:AE) = 15\%\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of customers having a Visa card = 1,500

Number of customers having an American Express card = 500

Number of customers having Visa and American Express card = 75

Total number of customers = 1,500 + 500 = 2,000

We are asked to find the probability that a customer chosen at random holds a VISA card, given that the customer has an American Express card.

This problem is related to conditional probability which is given by

$P(A \:| \:B) = \frac{P(A \:and \:B)}{P(B)}$

For the given problem it becomes

$P(VISA \:| \:AE) = \frac{P(VISA \:and \:AE)}{P(AE)}$

The probability P(VISA and AE) is given by

P(VISA and AE) = 75/2000

P(VISA and AE) = 0.0375

The probability P(AE) is given by

P(AE) = 500/2000

P(AE) = 0.25

Finally,

$P(VISA \:| \:AE) = \frac{P(VISA \:and \:AE)}{P(AE)}\\\\P(VISA \:| \:AE) = \frac{0.0375}{0.25}\\\\P(VISA \:| \:AE) = 0.15\\\\P(VISA \:| \:AE) = 15\%\\$
