Among 500 freshmen pursuing a business degree at a university, 311 are enrolled in an economics course, 243 are enrolled in a ma

thematics course, and 135 are enrolled in both an economics and a mathematics course. What is the probability that a freshman selected at random from this group is enrolled in each of the following?
a) an economics and/or a mathematics course.
b) exactly one of these two courses.
c) neither an economics course nor a mathematics course.

Solution :

Let A = Economics, B = Mathematics

n(A) = 311, n(B) = 243, $n(A \cap B) = 135$

a). So, $n(A \cup B) = n(A) +n(B) - n(A \cap B)$

                     = 311 + 243 - 135

                     = 419

b). n(A only) = 311 - 135

                   = 176

     n(B only) = 243 - 135

                   = 108

Exactly one of these two courses

  $=\frac{176+108}{500}$

  = 0.568

c). Neither economics nor mathematics

    $=\frac{500-419}{500} $

  $=\frac{81}{500}$

 = 0.162

Answer:

We are given that the two triangles are approximately equal or similar thus

angle M=angle Z = 124

angle L = angle X = 33

angle N= angle Y  = ?

The total angles is 180, thus angle N or Y is 180- (124+33) = 23

What is 10^-10 in decimal form?
S_A_V [24]
10^-10 in decimal form is 0.000000001. Because the exponent is negative, you move the decimal point ( decimal point is at the end of 0 of the base number 10) 10 place to the right of 10 and u get the answer above. I discarded the 0 later in the answer because now that you've moved the decimal, that 0 have no value. But when forming it in decimal you have to use that 0 or you will get a wrong answer, instead of eight 0's, you will end up with nine 0's.

What is the slope and y-intercept of line q graphed below?
beks73 [17]

The correct answer is C) 1/3 and (0, 1)

The y-intercept part is somewhat simple. In order for it to be a y-intercept, the x value of the ordered pair must be 0. That is only true in B and C, therefore they are the only possible answers.

To find the slope, we must choose two points on the line and use the slope formula. We can start by using the y-intercept (0, 1) and also (3, 2). Now we use the slope formula.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

In this equation m is equal to slope, the first point is (x1, y1) and the second point is (x2, y2)

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (2 - 1)/(3 - 0)

m = 1/3

Now knowing the slope, you can match this with answer C.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The angle around the centre O of the circle = 360°, then

∠ AOB = 360° - 260° = 100°

Δ AOB is isosceles ( the radii OA and OB are congruent )

The altitude from O bisects ∠ AOB , thus

y = 50°

Since the triangle is isosceles the 2 base angles are congruent, so

x = \frac{180-100}{2} = \frac{80}{2} = 40°

(b)

∠ POR = 360° - 254° = 106°

Δ POR is isosceles (the radii OP and OR are congruent ) , then

the 2 base angles are congruent , thus

a = \frac{180-106}{2} = \frac{74}{2} = 37°
