(3) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that ∆ADE is similar to ∆ABC. As such, the ratios of their legs are equal. Also note that AD = AB + BD.

BC/AB = DE/AD

BC/10 = 12/(10 + 5) = 12/15 = 4/5

or

BC = 10(4/5) = 8

Sophie [7]

Answer:

P(3) = 0.0244

P(3) = 2.44%

the probability that all three selected have driven while under the influence of alcohol is 2.44% or 0.0244

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The probability that they have driven while under the influence of alcohol is;

P = 29% = 0.29

the probability that all three selected have driven while under the influence of alcohol is;

P(3) = P × P × P

P(3) = 0.29 × 0.29 × 0.29

P(3) = 0.024389

P(3) = 0.0244

P(3) = 2.44%

the probability that all three selected have driven while under the influence of alcohol is 2.44% or 0.0244
