Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 16 oz in 1 lb, to find the amount in 3 lbs, you would just multiply it by 3

16 · 3 = 48

to find the price you divide the total price by number of oz.

6.95 ÷ 48 ≈ 0.1448

since money is measured in hundreths, you would round up (because thats how money works) so it would be roughly 15 cents. unless your teacher wants you to round down to 14 cents

Answer: x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5(x-2)=1/10(x+6)

1/5x -2/5=1/10x + 6/10

+2/5 +2/5

1/5x =1/10x + 1

-1/10 -1/10

1/10x= 1 divide both sides by 1/10

x= 10

Answer:

a) $(f\ has\ a\ relative \ minimum \ at\ x_{0} )$ ∧ $(f\ is\ differenciable\ at\ x_{0} )$ ⇒ $f^{'} (x_{0} )=0$ .

b) $(n\ is\ prime)$ ⇒ $(n=2)$ ∨ $(n\ is \ odd)$ .

c) $R\ is \ irreflexive\$ ⇒ $(R\ is\ symmetric)$ ∧ $(R\ is\ transitive)$ .

d) $detB=0$ ⇒ $(B \ is\ square)$ ∧ $(B\ is\ not\ invertible)$ .

e) $f\ has\ a\ critical\ point\ at \ x_{0}$ ⇔ $(f^{'}(x_{0})=0)$ ∨ $() \ f^{'}(x_{0}) \ does\ not\ exist$ .

f) $2n$ ∨ $n>4$ ⇒ $2$ .

g) $6\geq n-3$ ⇔ $n>4$ ∨ $n>10$ .

h) $x \ is \ cauchy$ ⇒ $x\ is\ convergent$ .

i) $\lim_{x \to \ x_{0}} f(x)=f(x_{0})$ ⇒ $f\ is\ continous\ at \ x_{0}$ .

j) $(f\ is\ diferenciable\ at\ x_{0})$ ∧ $(f\ is\ increasing\ at\ x_{0})$ ⇒ $f^{'}(x_{0})>0$ .

Have Retirement Benefits

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

(a) The probability of the intersection of events "man" and "yes" is 0.55.

(b) The probability of the intersection of events "no" and "man" is 0.10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is:

Yes No Total

Men 275 50 325

Women 150 25 175

Total 425 75 500

(a)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected employee is a man and a has retirement benefits as follows:

$P(M\cap Y)=\frac{n(M\cap Y)}{N}=\frac{275}{500}=0.55$

Thus, the probability of the intersection of events "man" and "yes" is 0.55.

(b)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected employee does not have retirement benefits and is a man as follows:

$P(N\cap M)=\frac{n(N\cap M)}{N}=\frac{50}{500}=0.10$

Thus, the probability of the intersection of events "no" and "man" is 0.10.

(c)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected employee is a woman or has no retirement benefits as follows:

$P(W\cup N)=P(W)+P(N)-P(W\cap N)=\frac{175}{500}+\frac{75}{500}-\frac{25}{500}=0.45$

Thus, the probability of the union of events "woman" or "no" is 0.45.
