Answer:

To find the answer we only need to know,

Total no.of girls and Total no.of right handed girls.

So,

Total no.of right handed girls = 7/8

Total no.of girls                        = 8/8 (as given in question)

Total no.of left handed girls is,

(Fraction of total no.of girls) - (Fraction of total no.of left handed girls)

= 8/8 - 7/8

= 1/8

∴ 1/8 of the girls in the school are left handed.

Solve and will mark brainliest
Sergeu [11.5K]

There is a 60 minute gap between the two clocks.

These 60 minutes result of a 1 min advance in one for each hour and a 2 min loss in the other.

if we are going 2 mins back and 1 min in

We have a 3 min gap/hour

then to reach a 1 hour gap we would need to go for 2+1+2+1+2+1+2....(20 hours)

since each 3 represent an hour,

to get 60 min gap>60/3=20 hours

Take clock 1 for example, which read 12:00, in reality the time is (12:00-20 minutes)=11:40

or

Take clock 2 for example, which read 11:00, in reality the time is (11:00+20×2 minutes)=11:40

Now go back 20 hours from that;

11:40-20=00:40-9=15:40

There's ur answer 15:40 :)

Grumpy Corp drug tests all of the recent college graduates it hires each year. The drug test currently used correctly determines
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Hence, the probability of a Negative test is P(T^C)=0.5904.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Let D= Drug user and T= Test positive

Probability of drug users P(D)=36\%=0.36

                                    P(\frac{T}{D})=96\%=0.96

                                   P(\frac{T^c}{D^c})=90\%=0.90

(b)

Find the Probability of a Negative test,

     P(T^C)=P(\frac{T^C}{D^C})\cdot P(D^C)+P(\frac{T^C}{D})\cdot P(D)

\Rightarrow P(T^C)=0.9\cdot(1-0.36)+(1-0.96)\cdot 0.36

\Rightarrow P(T^C)=0.9\cdot 0.64+0.04\cdot 0.36

\Rightarrow P(T^C)=0.576+0.0144

\Rightarrow P(T^C)=0.5904
