Lets discern the infomation:
number_men = 165*0.6 = 99
so there are 99 men
non_fiction = 165 * 0.4 = 66
so 66 authors write non-fiction.
men writing non-fiction are 40, so 59 men write fiction, and 26 women write non-fiction.
probability of author non-fiction or man?
non-fiction: 40 men + 26 women = 66 total
man writers = 99
so in total 99 man + 26 women = 115 authors
hence the probability is:
115/165 = 69.6%
Answer:x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
So 36% of x is 18
percent is parts out of 100
36%=36/100=0.36
'of' can be translated as muitiply
0.36 times x=18
divide both sdies by .36
x=50
the number is 50
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for number line
Required
Determine the model
From the attachment, we can see that each partition is 1/3
The gray rectangle covers 11 partitions.
So:


Express as a mixed number

The black rectangle covers 8 partitions
So:


Express as a mixed number

So, the model is:

Where Total is the point where the black rectangle stops

The value is -8 of the expression
