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.

Answer:

235.2

Step-by-step explanation:

147 * 1.60 -> this way is an all in one calculation but to double check you can take 60% of 147 (147 * .60 = x ) and add that value to 147 so... 88.2+147=235.2

A worker can assemble 3 shelf units each hour. During the fifth hour of the shift, there were 115 shelf units in the warehouse.
nasty-shy [4]
A worker can assemble 3 shelf units each hr. During the 5th hr...so the shift has been going on for 5 hrs...at 3 units per hr = (3 * 5) = 15 units assembled during the shift....and if there was 115 units in the warehouse, then that means before the shift, there were (115 - 15) = 100 units assembled <=

The legs of an isosceles right triangle are 5 inches long. What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle to the nearest i
In-s [12.5K]
The legs are 5 inches long.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:
5^2+5^2=c^2 \\&#10;25+25=c^2 \\&#10;50=c^2 \\&#10;c=\sqrt{50} \\&#10;c=\sqrt{25 \times 2} \\&#10;c=5 \sqrt{2} \\&#10;c \approx 7

The length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is approximately 7 inches long.
