Let
x---------> <span>The probability that a student takes Spanish 
y-------> </span><span>the probability that a student takes Drivers Education given that the Student is taking Spanish
z-------> </span><span>The probability that a student at school takes Drivers Education and Spanish 

we know that
z=x*y------> solve for y
y=z/x
z=87/1000
x=68/100
substitute
y=(87/1000)/(68/100)-----------> y=87/680

the answer is
87/680</span>

Answer: The probability is P = 0.128

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have is:

The probability of a student to take drivers education and Spanish is 87/1000.

The probability that a student takes Spanish is 68/100.

Now, remember that if for event 1 we have the probability p1, and for event 2 we have the probability p2, the probability of both events happening is:

P = p1*p2

This is the case for the student that takes the two classes, but when we assume that the student takes Spanish, we can remove the probability of that event (because we are already looking at the 68/100 of the cases where the student selected Spanish)

So given that a student is tanking Spanish, the probability of him to take drivers ed is:

(Probability of both classes)/(probability of tanking Spanish)

P = (87/1000)*(100/68) = 0.128

Science textbooks are ordered every 10 years math textbooks are ordered every 5 years if new science and math textbooks were ord
Musya8 [376]
10 years, because In 5 years after 2008, 2013 you get new math books 5 more years you get another set of math books-2018, but 2008 plus 10 years you get science books which is also 2018 which is also when you get another set of math books. So the next year you get math books and science books shipped the same year is 2018. 2018-2008=10 so 10 years pass

4688-3) -30X-5 CX-5)
pshichka [43]

Answer:

x = 13/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4(8x-3) - 30x = 5(x-5)

Distribute

32x - 12 - 30x  = 5x -25

Combine like terms

2x -12 = 5x-25

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-12-2x = 5x-2x -25

-12 = 3x-25

Add 25 to each side

-12+25 = 3x-25+25

13 = 3x

Divide each side by 3

13/3 = x

Triangle DEF (not shown) is similar to ABC shown, with angle B congruent to angle E and angle C congruent to angle F. The length
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Area of ΔDEF is 45\ cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

ΔABC and  ΔDEF is similar and ∠B ≅ ∠E.

Length of AB = 2\ cm and

Length of DE = 6\ cm

Area of ΔABC = 5\ cm^2

Solution,

Since, ΔABC and  ΔDEF is similar and ∠B ≅ ∠E.

Therefore,

\frac{Area\ of\ triangle\ 1}{Area\ of\ triangle\ 2} =\frac{AB^2}{DE^2}

Where triangle 1 and triangle 2 is  ΔABC and  ΔDEF respectively.

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the area of both triangles is proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.

\frac{5}{Area\ of\ triangle\ 2} =\frac{2^2}{6^2}\\ \frac{5}{Area\ of\ triangle\ 2}=\frac{4}{36}\\ Area\ of\ triangle\ 2=\frac{5\times36}{4} =5\times9=45\ cm^2

Thus the area of  ΔDEF is 45\ cm^2.
