For purposes of making on-campus housing assignments, a college classifies its students as Priority A (seniors), Priority B (jun

iors), and Priority C (freshmen and sophomores). Of the students who choose to live on campus, 22% are seniors, 29% are juniors, and the rest are underclassmen. The most desirable dorm is the newly constructed Gold dorm, and 71% of the seniors elect to live there. 19% of the juniors also live there, along with only 5% of the freshmen and sophomores. What is the probability that a randomly selected resident of the Gold dorm is a senior? Show as much work as possible.

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected resident of the Gold dorm is a senior is 0.1562

Step-by-step explanation:

The given percentage of each class of student is presented as follows;

Priority A (seniors) = 22%, ∴ P(s) = 0.22

Priority B (juniors) = 29%, ∴ P(j) = 0.29

Priority C (freshmen and sophomores) = (100 - 22 - 29)% = 49%, ∴ P(fs) = 0.49

The percentage of the seniors that elect to live at the Gold dorm, = 71%, ∴ P(sG) = 0.71

The percentage of the juniors that live at the Gold dorm = 19%, ∴ P(jG) = 0.19

The percentage of the freshmen and sophomores that live in the Gold dorm = 5%, ∴ P(fsG) = 0.05

The probability that a randomly selected resident of the Gold dorm is a senior = P(s∩sG) = P(s) × P(sG)

∴ P(s∩sG) = 0.22 × 0.71 = 0.1562

Therefore;

The probability that a randomly selected resident of the Gold dorm is a senior = P(s∩sG) = 0.1562.

Answer: 1. 2nd endpoint  (24,-18)       2. 2nd endpoint: (-19,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.   \frac{-10+x}{2} = 7  x = 24

    \frac{6+y}{2} = -6    y= -18

2nd endpoint: (24,-18)

   

2.  \frac{-1+x}{2} = -10   x= -19  

   \frac{0+y}{2} =  2     y= 4

HELP!!! I need help in simplifying this question.
kherson [118]

Answer: x^{-4}=\frac{1}{x^{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following expression:

(\sqrt[3]{x^{2}} \sqrt[6]{x^{4}})^{-3}

Which can also be written as:

(x^{\frac{2}{3}} x^{\frac{4}{6}})^{-3}

Since we have exponents with the same base x inside the parenthesis, we can sum both exponents:

(x^{\frac{4}{3}})^{-3}

Now, we have to multiply the exponent out of the parenthesis with the inner exponent and have the following result:

x^{-4}=\frac{1}{x^{4}}
