Edison Research gathered exit poll results from several sources for the Wisconsin recall election of Scott Walker. They found th

at 56% of the respondents voted in favor of Scott Walker. Additionally, they estimated that of those who did vote in favor for Scott Walker, 36% had a college degree, while 43% of those who voted against Scott Walker had a college degree. Suppose we randomly sampled a person who participated in the exit poll and found that he had a college degree. What is the probability that he voted in favor of Scott Walker?

Answer: Our required probability is 0.515.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that the respondents voted in favor of Scot Walker P(F) = 56%

Probability that the respondent voted in not favor of Scot Walker = 100-56 = P(F')=44%

Probability of those who did vote in favor had a college degree = 36% = P(C|F)

Probability of those who did vote against had a college degree = 44% = P(C|F')

So, we will use "Conditional Probability":

probability that he voted in favor of Scott Walker given that they had a college degree is given by

P(F|C)=\dfrac{0.56\times 0.36}{0.56\times 0.36+0.44\times 0.43}\\\\P(F|C)=0.515

Hence, our required probability is 0.515.

Solve 2x2 8x - 12 = 0 by completing the square. show step-by-step solution
malfutka [58]
Group x terms
(2x^2+8x)-12=0
undistribute 2
2(x^2+4x)-12=0
take 1/2 of 4 and square it, add negative and positive of it insde (2^2=4)
2(x^2+4x+4-4)-12=0
factor perfect square
2((x+2)^2-4)-12=0
distribute
2(x+2)^2-8-12=0
2(x+2)^2-20=0
add 20 to both sides
2(x+2)^2=20
divide both sides by 2
(x+2)^2=10
sqrt both sides, remember to take positive and negative root
x+2=+/-√10
minus 2 both sides


x=-2+√10 and -2-√10
