The share of Natasha is £ 42
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
£70 is divided between Natasha, Richard & Stephen
Total amount = 70
Let the share of natasha be "x"
Let the share of richard be "y"
Let the share of stephen be "z"
Natasha gets twice as much as Richard
x = 2y ------ eqn 1
Richard gets three times as much as Stephen
y = 3z
----- eqn 2
Total amount = 70
share of natasha + share of richard + share of stephen = 70
x + y + z = 70
Substitute eqn 1 and eqn 2
Substitute y = 21 in eqn 1
x = 2y = 2(21) = 42
x = 42
Thus natasha gets £ 42
Answer:
P(a junior or a senior)=1
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the probability is given by:
Where P(A) is the probability of occurring an event A, n(A) is the number of favorable outcomes and N is the total number of outcomes.
In this case, N is the total number of the students of statistics class.
N=18+10=28
The probability of the union of two mutually exclusive events is given by:
Therefore:
P(a junior or a senior) =P(a junior)+P(a senior)
Because a student is a junior or a senior, not both.
n(a junior)=18
n(a senior)=10
P(a junior)=18/28
P(a senior) = 10/28
P(a junior or a senior) = 18/28 + 10/28
Solving the sum of the fractions:
P(a junior or a senior) = 28/28 = 1
