Answer:

A. 8%

B. 39.6%

C. 58.4%

D. 41.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Computation to determine the probability of eligible voter selected at random

First step is to Draw up a contingincy table which will include Rows = Degree/No degree

and Columns= Vote/Not vote

..............Vote..No vote

Degree 80...20...100

(80%*100=80)

(100-80=20)

No Degree 504..396..900

(1000-100=900)

(56%*900=504)

(504-900=396

Totals 584..416...1000

(80+504=584)

(20+396=416)

(900+100=1,000)

Summary

..............Vote..No vote

Degree 80...20...100

No Degree 504..396..900

Total Totals 584..416...1000

A. Calculation to determine the probability of The voter had a college degree and voted in the last presidential election.

P = 80/1,000

P=0.08*100

P=8%

Therefore the probability of The voter had a college degree and voted in the last presidential election will be 8%

B. Calculation to determine the probability of The voter did not have a college degree and did not vote in the last presidential election.

P =396/1000

P=0.396*100

P=39.6%

Therefore the probability of The voter did not have a college degree and did not vote in the last presidential election will be 39.6%

C. Calculation to determine the probability if The voter voted in the last presidential election.

P = 584/1,000

P=0.584*100

P=58.4%

Therefore the probability if The voter voted in the last presidential election will be 58.4%

D. Calculation to determine the probability if The voter did not vote in the last presidential election.

P = 416/1000

P=0.416*100

P=41.6%

Therefore the probability if The voter did not vote in the last presidential election will be 41.6%

Slope of (0,1) and (3,0)
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{  \frac{ - 1}{3}}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the points be A and B

Let A ( 0 , 1 ) be ( x₁ , y₁ ) and B ( 3 , 0 ) be ( x₂ , y₂ )

<u>Finding</u><u> </u><u>the </u><u>slope</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>the </u><u>points</u>

\boxed{ \sf{slope =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} }}

\longrightarrow{ \sf{slope =  \frac{0 - 1}{ 3 - 0}}}

\longrightarrow{ \sf{slope =  \frac{ - 1}{3}}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Which unit rate corresponds to the proportional relationship shown in the graph?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.5 cm/s​

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit rate is the same as the slope.

To find the slope, we use the slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Using our points, we have

m = (9-0)/(6-0) = 9/6 = 3/2 = 1.5 cm/s
