Color blindness is an inherited characteristic that is more common in males than females. Let F represent female, and C represen

t red-green color blindness.
P(C) = 0.039 P(F and C) = 0.004 P(F or C) = 0.548

2. Use the Addition Rule or the "OR" formula for probability, substitute the values given, and solve for the probability of a Female.

P(F or C) = P(F) + P(C) - P(F and C)

Answer:

0.513 = 51.3% probability of being a female.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following formula:

$P(F \cup C) = P(F) + P(C) - P(F \cap C)$

In which:

Event F: Female

Event C: Red-green color blindness.

Probability of a Female

We have to find P(F), which is given by:

$P(F) = P(F \cup C) + P(F \cap C) - P(C)$

We are given by:

$P(C) = 0.039, P(F \cap C) = 0.004, P(F \cup C) = 0.548$

So

$P(F) = P(F \cup C) + P(F \cap C) - P(C) = 0.548 + 0.004 - 0.039 = 0.513$

0.513 = 51.3% probability of being a female.

Find the area of the composite figure.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The Area of the composite figure would be 76.26 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>According to the Figure Given:</u>

Total Horizontal Distance = 14 in

Length = 6 in

<u>To Find :</u>

The Area of the composite figure

<u>Solution:</u>

Firstly we need to find the area of Rectangular part.

So We know that,

$\boxed{ \rm \: Area \: of \: Rectangle = Length×Breadth}$

Here, Length is 6 in but the breadth is unknown.

To Find out the breadth, we’ll use this formula:

$\boxed{\rm \: Breadth = total \: distance - Radius}$

According to the Figure, we can see one side of a rectangle and radius of the circle are common, hence,

$\longrightarrow\rm \: Length \: of \: the \: circle = Radius$

Since Length = 6 in ;

$\longrightarrow \rm \: 6 \: in = radius$

Hence Radius is 6 in.

So Substitute the value of Total distance and Radius:

Total Horizontal Distance= 14
Radius = 6

$\longrightarrow\rm \: Breadth = 14-6$

$\longrightarrow\rm \: Breadth = 8 \: in$

Hence, the Breadth is 8 in.

Then, Substitute the values of Length and Breadth in the formula of Rectangle :

Length = 6
Breadth = 8

$\longrightarrow\rm \: Area \: of \: Rectangle = 6 \times 8$

$\longrightarrow \rm \: Area \: of \: Rectangle = 48 \: in {}^{2}$

Then, We need to find the area of Quarter circle :

We know that,

$\boxed{\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = \cfrac{\pi{r} {}^{2} }{4}}$

Now Substitute their values:

r = radius = 6
π = 3.14

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = \cfrac{3.14 \times 6 {}^{2} }{4}$

Solve it.

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = \cfrac{3.14 \times 36}{4}$

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = \cfrac{3.14 \times \cancel{{36} } \: ^{9} }{ \cancel4}$

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle)} =3.14 \times 9$

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = 28.26 \: {in}^{2}$

Now we can Find out the total Area of composite figure:

We know that,

$\boxed{ \rm \: Area_{(Composite Figure)} =Area_{(rectangle)}+ Area_{ (Quarter Circle)}}$

So Substitute their values:

$\rm Area_{(rectangle)}$ = 48
$\rm Area_{(Quarter Circle)}$ = 28.26

$\longrightarrow \rm \: Area_{(Composite Figure)} =48 + 28 .26$

Solve it.

$\longrightarrow \rm \: Area_{(Composite Figure)} =\boxed{\tt 76.26 \:\rm in {}^{2}}$

Hence, the area of the composite figure would be 76.26 in² or 76.26 sq. in.

$\rule{225pt}{2pt}$

The question in the image.

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

500 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>hey there,</em>

<em />

< Since "p" stands for profits, change "p" to 0 (since the question says 0 profits).

Here is how your equation would look like:

$0 = -n^2 + 300n + 100000$

Pretend like "n" is "x" since that is the variable we are trying to find here.

Solve for "n". Move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero. Then set each factor equal to zero.

"n" actually ends up equaling 500, -200.

Obviously, negative can't be the answer because you can't have a negative amount of boxes. So 500 boxes would be your answer. 200 CAN'T be your answer <em>either </em>because it is a negative!! >

<u>Hope this helped! Feel free to ask anything else.</u>

L = $20 r = 4% t = 2 years

Annette [7]

I'm guessing this is a question about interest rates? If you have $20 that increases by 4% in one year, you need to multiply 20 by 1.04. This gets you $20.8.

If you are talking about compound interest, we will take this number and multiply it again by 1.04 for the second year. 20.8 x 1.04 = $21.632.

If it is instead simple interest, we will simply add another .8 dollars for each year, instead of getting 4% interest compounded every year onto the new value. This gets you $21.6.

1. mucus - a slimy substance produced in the nose and throat to moisten and protect them
2. sterile - free from germs
3. enables - gives ability, power, or means to; makes able
4. specialize - to develop in a special way
5. critical - being important to the outcome of a situation

For #6-10, the word in italics is the one most similar to the first word.

6. scarce | plenty | many | <em>rare</em>
7. critical | <em>important</em> | useful | relaxed
8. sterile | dirty <em>| germ-free</em> | bacteria
9. enables | teaches | makes empty | <em>allows</em>
10. specialize | stretch | <em>adapt</em> | organize

I can't help you with the last one, because that's specific to you. If you have questions on how to work on that one specifically, though, feel free to message me or post a question about it. :)
