Suppose that 62 percent of the graduates from your high school go on to four-year colleges, 15 percent go on to two-year college
inn [45]

Answer:

b) .474

Step-by-step explanation:

If 62% go to a four-year college, that means that those who don't represent 38% of the high-school graduates.

You pick up someone who is NOT going to a four-year college (so, he's among the 38%)... what's the chance he's in the 18% of the whole high-school graduates population that found a job?

To calculate that probability, we have to divide 18% by 38%.

P = 18% / 38% = 0.4736, so 0.474

Since we are sure he doesn't go to a four-year college, there's 47.4% of chances he finds a job.

A 10ft by 20ft rectangular swimming pool is surrounded by a walkway of uniform width. If the total area of the walkway is 216ft^
Dmitry [639]

check the picture below.


so, we know the dimensions of the pool, is a 20x10, so its area is simply 200 ft², and we know the walkway is 216 ft², so the whole thing, including pool and walkway is really 200 + 216 ft².


now, as you see in the picture, the dimensions for the combined area is 20+2x and 10+2x, since the walkway is "x" long, therefore,


\bf \stackrel{length}{(20+2x)}\stackrel{width}{(10+2x)}=200+216\implies \stackrel{FOIL}{4x^2+60x+200}=200+216 \\\\\\ 4x^2+60x=216\implies \stackrel{dividing~by~4}{x^2+15x=54} \\\\\\ x^2+15x-54=0\implies (x+18)(x-3)=0\implies x= \begin{cases} -18\\ \boxed{3} \end{cases}


notice, it cannot be -18, since is a positive length unit.

A music website charges x dollars for individual songs and y dollars for an entire album. Person A pays $25.92 to download 6 ind
EleoNora [17]
Amount charged for downloading individual songs = x dollars
Amount charged for downloading an entire song album = y dollars
Person A:
6x + 2y = 25.92
3x + y = 12.96
y = 12.96 - 3x
Person B:
4x + 3y = 33.93
Putting the value of y from the first equation in the second we get
x = 0.99 dollars
Putting the value of x in the first equation we get
y = 12.96 - 3x
= 12.96 - 2.97
= 9.99 dollars
