Answer:

Dan = 68

bobbi = 62

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Bobbi's height = b

Let Dan's height = d

the following equations can be determined from the question

b + d = 130  eqn 1

3b - d = 118  eqn 2

Multiply eqn 1 by 3

3b + 3d = 390  eqn 3

Substract eqn 2 from 3. this gives

4d = 272

d = 68

Substitute for d in eqn 1

b + 68 = 130

b = 62

Ok I'm doing home work and need to show why 1/2 of 60 is not the same as 1/2 of 24 please help! It will give you 24 points.
Tems11 [23]
Simple,

1/2 of 60

re-write it as 0.5 of 60 aka 0.5*60

which is 0.5*60=30

Do the same with 1/2 of 24.

0.5 of 24

0.5*24=12.

Thus, it's not the same because they are different numbers and different number give you different answers.

Leokris [45]

Answer:

480 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation where x is the number of people surveyed:

180 = (x)(0.375)

Solve for x:

180 = (x)(0.375)

480 = x

So, Annette surveyed 480 people

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

a) 0.54 = 54% probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both.

b) 0.46 = 46% probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons

Step-by-step explanation:

We use Venn's Equations for probabilities.

I am going to say that:

P(A) is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about wasting food.

P(B) is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room.

0.12 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for both of these reasons.

This means that P(A \cap B) = 0.12

0.27 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room.

This means that P(B) = 0.27

0.39 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about wasting food

This means that P(A) = 0.39

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)?

P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) = 0.39 + 0.27 - 0.12 = 0.54

0.54 = 54% probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both.

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

p = 1 - P(A \cup B) = 1 - 0.54 = 0.46

0.46 = 46% probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons
