1. The Eco Pulse survey from the marketing communications firm Shelton Group asked individuals to indicate things they do that m

ake them feel guilty (Los Angeles Times, August 15, 2012). Based on the survey results, there is a .39 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about wasting food and a .27 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room. Moreover, there is a .12 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for both of these reasons.
a. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both (to 2 decimals)?

b. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons (to 2 decimals)?

2. Which NCAA college basketball conferences have the higher probability of having a team play in college basketball's national championship game? Over the last 20 years, the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) ranks first by having a team in the championship game 10 times. The Southeastern Conference (SEC) ranks second by having a team in the championship game 8 times. However, these two conferences have both had teams in the championship game only one time, when Arkansas (SEC) beat Duke (ACC) 76–70 in 1994 (NCAA website, April 2009). Use these data to estimate the following probabilities.

a. What is the probability the ACC will have a team in the championship game (to 2 decimals)?

b. What is the probability the SEC will have a team in the championship game (to 2 decimals)?

c. What is the probability the ACC and SEC will both have teams in the championship game (to 2 decimals)?

d. What is the probability at least one team from these two conferences will be in the championship game? That is, what is the probability a team from the ACC or SEC will play in the championship game (to 2 decimals)?

e. What is the probability that the championship game will not have a team from one of these two conferences (to 2 decimals)?

Answer:

1.) 0.54 ; 0.46

2.) 0.50 ; 0.40 ; 0.05 ; 0.85 ; 0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

A = feel guilty about wasting food ; P(A) = 0.39

B = feel guilty leaving lights on ; P(B) = 0.27

Probability of feeling guilty for doing both = 0.12

P(AnB) = 0.12

1a.) What is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both (to 2 decimals)?

P(AuB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AnB)

= 0.39 + 0.27 - 0.12

= 0.54

1b.) What is the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons (to 2 decimals)?

P(AuB)' = 1 - P(AuB)

P(AuB)' = 1 - 0.54

P(AuB)' = 0.46

2.)

n(ACC) = 10

n(SEC) = 8

n(total) = 20

n(ACC n SEC) = 1

a. What is the probability the ACC will have a team in the championship game (to 2 decimals)?

n(ACC) / n(Total) = 10 /20 = 0.50

b. What is the probability the SEC will have a team in the championship game (to 2 decimals)?

n(SEC) / n(Total) = 8/20 = 0.40

c. What is the probability the ACC and SEC will both have teams in the championship game (to 2 decimals)?

1 /20 = 0.05

d.)

P(AuB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AnB)

= 0.50 + 0.40 - 0.05

= 0.85

e.)

P(AuB)' = 1 - P(AuB)

P(AuB)' = 1 - 0.85

= 0.15

IL is a diameter, which is a straight line, which is equal to 180 degrees.

The arc of IL would be 180 degrees

You are told the arc of KL is 30 degrees.

The major arc of ILK would be 180 + 30 = 210 degrees.

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 2 and a y intercept of -5?
Elanso [62]

Answer:

y=2x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is how you move so you could also call it m

The y intercept is where you begin so you could call it b

So every time you need to find the equation or which one is like the slope just remember m=move b= begin

y=mx+b
