The answer to your question is the last one through the method of competing the square
First, let's convert the givens to decimals to make calculations easier:
2 (3/4) = 2.75
9(5/8) = 9.625
We are given that:
Josie can hike 2.75 miles in one hour.
To know the time that Josie would take to hike 9.625 miles, we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:
2.75 miles ..........> 1 hour
9.625 miles .............> ?? hours
Time = (9.625*1) / (2.75) = 3.5 hours
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required:
Simplify
We start by opening the bracket
Collect Like Terms
Hence, the equivalent expression is
You can use this formula <span>P(AorB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AandB)
Given:
35 LG (14 F & 21 M)
44 SB (28 F & 16 M)
Req:
- the probability that it is a female (F) or a sky blue (SB)
Sol:
</span>P(F or SB) = P(F) + P(SB) - P(F and SB)
= [(14 F + 28 F)/(35 + 44)] + [(44 SB)/(35 + 44)] - [(28 F)/(35 + 44)]
= 53.16 + 55.70 - 35.44
= 73.42%
You have to deduct 28 female parakeets from 44 sky blue parakeets because the 28 parakeets are already accounted for in the female parakeets. You can also think of how many ways you can choose a female parakeet and a sky blue parakeet. Add all female parakeets (14 + 28) = 42. Sky blue parakeet equaled to 44. Minus the 28 female parakeets included in the sky blue parakeet to avoid double counting. 42 + 44 - 28 = 58 divided by 79 (35 + 44) total parakeets = 73.42%
