Answer:

a) 0.06 = 6% probability that a person has both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

b) 0.94 = 94% probability that a person does NOT have both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to solve this question treating these events as Venn probabilities.

I am going to say that:

Event A: Person has type A blood.

Event B: Person has Rh- factor.

43% of people have type O blood

This means that P(A) = 0.43

15% of people have Rh- factor

This means that P(B) = 0.15

52% of people have type O or Rh- factor.

This means that P(A \cup B) = 0.52

a. Find the probability that a person has both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

This is

P(A \cap B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cup B)

With what we have

P(A \cap B) = 0.43 + 0.15 - 0.52 = 0.06

0.06 = 6% probability that a person has both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

b. Find the probability that a person does NOT have both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

1 - 0.06 = 0.94

0.94 = 94% probability that a person does NOT have both type O blood and the Rh- factor.

15x+5y=30 with y by itself​
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

15 x 1 + 5 x 3 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

If you turn the x into a one then it multiplies 15 by one and then it remains at 15, then you multiply 5 and 3 so that's 15 and then 15 + 15 is 30.
