X= 6/17or the alternative form is 0.352941
Check the picture below.
since the focus point is above the directrix, that simply means the parabola is a vertical one, and therefore the square variable is the "x".
keeping in mind that, there's a distance "p" from the vertex to either the focus point or the directrix, that puts the vertex half-way between those fellows, in this case at 0, right between 1 and -1, as you see in the picture, and the parabola looks like so.
since the parabola is opening upwards, the value for "p" is positive, thus
Answer:
The probability that a book picked at random is either a work written by an author who writes only nonfiction or a work written by a man is 75.8%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability, in this case, has to be calculated using the sum rule because the events are independent.
P = P(men) + P(non-fiction) - P(men non-fiction); where P is the probability. It means the probability that the random book was written by a man plus the probability that the random book was non-fiction minus the probability that the random book was written by a man who writes non-fiction. The probability that the random book was written by a man who writes non-fiction has to be subtracted, if not you will be duplicating it.
Facts:
P(men) = 60% = 99/165
P(non-fiction) = 40% = 66/165
P(men non-fiction) = 40/165
P = P(men) + P(non-fiction) – P(men non-fiction)
P = 99/165 + 66/165 – 40/165
P = 125/165
P = 0.758 or 75.8%
