Solnce55 [7]

Answer: Around two gallon cans

Step-by-step explanation: One gallon can of paint covers up to 400 square feet, which is enough to cover a small room, like a bathroom. Two gallon cans of paint cover up to 800 square feet, which is enough to cover an average size room.

According to a survey, 60 % of the residents of a city oppose a downtown casino. Of these 60 % about 8 out of 10 strongly opp

katrin [286]

Answer:

(a) 0.48

(b) 0.20

(c) it is not unusual for a radomly selected resident to oppose the casino and strongly oppose the casino.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Find the probability that a randomly selected resident opposes the casino and strongly opposes the casino.

The probability that a radomly selected resident opposes the casino and strongly opposes the cassino is the product of the two probabilities, that a resident opposes the casino and that it strongly opposes the casino (once it is in the first group) as it is shown below.

Use this notation:

Probability that a radomly selected resident opposes the casino: P(A)

Probability that a resident who opposes the casino strongly opposes it: P(B/A), because it is the probability of event B given the event A

i) Determine the probability that a radomly selected resident opposes the casino, P(A)

Probability = number of favorable outcomes / number of possible outcomes

P(A) is given as 60%, which in decimal form is 0.60

ii) Next, determine,the probability that a resident who opposes the casino strongly opposes it, P(B/A):

It is given as 8 out of 10 ⇒ P(B/A) = 8/10

iii) You want the probability of both events, which is the joint probability or intersection: P(A∩B).

So, you can use the definition of conditional probability:

P(B/A) = P(A∩B) / P(A)

iv) From which you can solve for P(A∩B)

P(A∩B) = P(B/A)×P(A) = (8/10)×(0.60) = 0.48

(b) Find the probability that a randomly selected resident who opposes the casino does not strongly oppose the casino.

In this case, you just want the complement of the probability that a radomly selected resident who opposes the casino does strongly oppose the casino, which is 1 - P(B/A) = 1 - 8/10 = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2.

(c) Would it be unusual for a randomly selected resident to oppose the casino and strongly oppose the casino?

You are being asked about the joint probability (PA∩B), which you found in the part (a) and it is 0.48.

That is almost 0.50 or half of the population, so you conclude it is not unusual for a radomly selected resident to oppose the casino and strongly oppose the casino.

Helppp meeeeeeee plsssssss you got till nine

Answer:

3/20 of the cover page is text about endangered species.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 3/8th of the page is text, and 2/5ths of that text is about endangered species.

So all we have to do is find out how much 2/5ths of 3/8ths are, which can be done simply via fraction multiplication.

3/8 * 2/5 = ?

For multiplying fractions, we multiply the top parts together, and then the bottom parts together. So 3/ 8 * 2/5 would be equal to (3*2) / (8*5). This gives us 6 / 40 which can be simplified to 3/20.

So 3/20ths of the cover page is about endangered animals.
