Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose the first one is x. so the other one should be 6x-94 (as said).

so : x+6x-94 = 956 . then 7x -94 = 956 . then 7x = 1050 . so x = 1050/7 . then

x = 150

Write an expression that is equivalent to 4n – 12 + 8y + (-3n).

Dimas [21]

It would be 1n - 12 + 8y.
4n - 3n = 1n
12 + 8y don’t mix so we can leave it.
Therefore: 1n - 12 + 8y

Suppose that in a senior college class of 500500 students, it is found that 179179 smoke, 228228 drink alcoholic beverages, 1

olga2289 [7]

Answer: a) 0.16, b) 0.058, and c) 0.856.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students = 500

Number of students smoke = 179

Number of students drink alcohol = 228

Number of students eat between meals = 119

Number of students eat between meals and drink alcohol = 59

Number of students eat between meals and smoke = 72

Number of students engage in all three = 30

a) Probability that the student smokes but does not drink alcohol is given by

$P(S-A)=P(S)-P(S\cap A)\\\\P(S-A)=\dfrac{179}{500}-\dfrac{99}{500}\\\\P(S-A)=\dfrac{179-99}{500}\\\\P(S-A)=\dfrac{80}{500}\\\\P(S-A)=0.16$

b) eats between meals and drink alcohol but does not smoke.

$P((M\cap A)-S)=P(M\cap A)-P(M\cap S\cap A)\\\\P((M\cap A)-S)=\dfrac{59}{500}-\dfrac{30}{500}\\\\P((M\cap A)-S)=\dfrac{59-30}{500}\\\\P((M\cap A)-S)=\dfrac{29}{500}\\\\P((M\cap A)-S)=0.058$

c) neither smokes nor eats between meals.

$P(S'\cap M')=1-P(S\cup M)\\\\P(S'\cap M')=1-\dfrac{72}{500}\\\\P(S'\cap M')=\dfrac{500-72}{500}\\\\P(S'\cap M')=\dfrac{428}{500}=0.856$

Hence, a) 0.16, b) 0.058, and c) 0.856.
