2 would most like be doubled and be 4 I think...

Mrs. Daly's reading classes were surveyed about their reading preferences. The data is summarized in the table below.

Answer:

Required probability is 0.19

Step-by-step explanation:

The two-way table for the given data is,

Fiction Non-Fiction Total

9th grade 35 8 43

10th grade 52 12 64

Total 87 20 107

It is required to find the probability of the students who prefer to read non-fiction novels, given that they are in 9th grade.

That is, to find the conditional probability $P(Non-fiction| 9th\ grade)$ .

Now, $P(A|B)=\dfrac{P(A\bigcap B)}{P(B)}$

So, we get,

$P(Non-fiction| 9th\ grade)=\dfrac{(Non-fiction\bigcap 9th\ grade)}{P(9th\ grade)}\\\\P(Non-fiction| 9th\ grade)=\dfrac{8}{43}\\\\P(Non-fiction| 9th\ grade)=0.19$

<h3>Thus, the required probability is 0.19.</h3>

Simplify this please

Answer:

$\frac{12q^{\frac{7}{3}}}{p^{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some rules you need to simplify this expression:

Distribute exponents: When you raise an exponent to another exponent, you multiply the exponents together. This includes exponents that are fractions. $(a^{x})^{n} = a^{xn}$

Negative exponent rule: When an exponent is negative, you can make it positive by making the base a fraction. When the number is apart of a bigger fraction, you can move it to the other side (top/bottom). $a^{-x} = \frac{1}{a^{x}}$ , and to help with this question: $\frac{a^{-x}b}{1} = \frac{b}{a^{x}}$ .

Multiplying exponents with same base: When exponential numbers have the same base, you can combine them by adding their exponents together. $(a^{x})(a^{y}) = a^{x+y}$

Dividing exponents with same base: When exponential numbers have the same base, you can combine them by subtracting the exponents. $\frac{a^{x}}{a^{y}} = a^{x-y}$

Fractional exponents as a radical: When a number has an exponent that is a fraction, the numerator can remain the exponent, and the denominator becomes the index (example, index here ∛ is 3). $a^{\frac{m}{n}} = \sqrt[n]{a^{m}} = (\sqrt[n]{a})^{m}$

$\frac{(8p^{-6} q^{3})^{2/3}}{(27p^{3}q)^{-1/3}}$ Distribute exponent

$=\frac{8^{(2/3)}p^{(-6*2/3)}q^{(3*2/3)}}{27^{(-1/3)}p^{(3*-1/3)}q^{(-1/3)}}$ Simplify each exponent by multiplying

$=\frac{8^{(2/3)}p^{(-4)}q^{(2)}}{27^{(-1/3)}p^{(-1)}q^{(-1/3)}}$ Negative exponent rule

$=\frac{8^{(2/3)}q^{(2)}27^{(1/3)}p^{(1)}q^{(1/3)}}{p^{(4)}}$ Combine the like terms in the numerator with the base "q"

$=\frac{8^{(2/3)}27^{(1/3)}p^{(1)}q^{(2)}q^{(1/3)}}{p^{(4)}}$ Rearranged for you to see the like terms

$=\frac{8^{(2/3)}27^{(1/3)}p^{(1)}q^{(2)+(1/3)}}{p^{(4)}}$ Multiplying exponents with same base

$=\frac{8^{(2/3)}27^{(1/3)}p^{(1)}q^{(7/3)}}{p^{(4)}}$ 2 + 1/3 = 7/3

$=\frac{\sqrt[3]{8^{2}}\sqrt[3]{27}p\sqrt[3]{q^{7}}}{p^{4}}$ Fractional exponents as radical form

$=\frac{(\sqrt[3]{64})(3)(p)(q^{\frac{7}{3}})}{p^{4}}$ Simplified cubes. Wrote brackets to lessen confusion. Notice the radical of a variable can't be simplified.
