Answer: probability =  0.506

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have is:

Total people: 205 + 160 + 40 = 405

prefer cats: 205

prefer dogs: 160

neither: 40

The probability that a person chosen at random prefers cats is equal to the number of people that prefer cats divided the total number of people:

p = 205/405 = 0.506

in percent form, this is 50.6%

What is the product in simplest form x^2+9x+18/x+2 times x^2-3x-10/x^2+2x-24
german
\dfrac{x^2+9x+18}{x+2}\cdot\dfrac{x^2-3x-10}{x^2+2x-24}=\dfrac{x^2+6x+3x+18}{x+2}\cdot\dfrac{x^2-5x+2x-10}{x^2+6x-4x-24}\\\\=\dfrac{x(x+6)+3(x+6)}{x+2}\cdot\dfrac{x(x-5)+2(x-5)}{x(x+6)-4(x+6)}

=\dfrac{(x+6)(x+3)}{x+2}\cdot\dfrac{(x-5)(x+2)}{(x+6)(x-4)}=\dfrac{(x+3)(x-5)}{x-4}\\\\=\dfrac{x^2-5x+3x-15}{x-4}=\dfrac{x^2-2x-15}{x-4}
