The proportions of blood phenotypes, A, B, AB, and O, in the population of all Caucasians in the United States are approximately

.41, .10, .04, and .45, respectively. A single Caucasian is chosen at random from the population. a List the sample space for this experiment. b Make use of the information given above to assign probabilities to each of the simple events. c What is the probability that the person chosen at random has either type A or type AB blood

Answer:

a. S = {A,B,AB,O}

b. P(A) = 0.41, P(B) = 0.1, P(AB) = 0.04, P(O) = 0.45

c. 0.45 = 45% probability that the person chosen at random has either type A or type AB blood

Step-by-step explanation:

a List the sample space for this experiment.

All possible blood types(A, B, AB or O). So

S = {A,B,AB,O}

b Make use of the information given above to assign probabilities to each of the simple events.

The proportions of blood phenotypes, A, B, AB, and O, in the population of all Caucasians in the United States are approximately .41, .10, .04, and .45, respectively.

So

P(A) = 0.41, P(B) = 0.1, P(AB) = 0.04, P(O) = 0.45

c What is the probability that the person chosen at random has either type A or type AB blood

P(A) + P(AB) = 0.41 + 0.04 = 0.45

0.45 = 45% probability that the person chosen at random has either type A or type AB blood

flvs hope If $x^2+bx+16$ has at least one real root, find all possible values of $b$. Express your answer in interval notation.
Galina-37 [17]
If x^2+bx+16 has at least one real root, then the equation x^2+bx+16=0 has at least one solution. The discriminant of a quadratic equation is b^2-4ac and it determines the nature of the roots. If the discriminant is zero, there is exactly one distinct real root. If the discriminant is positive, there are exactly two roots. The discriminant of <span>x^2+bx+16=0 is b^2-4(1)(16). The inequality here gives the values of b where the discriminant will be positive or zero:
                                           b^2-4(1)(16) ≥ 0
                                                  </span><span>b^2-64 ≥ 0
                                             (b+8)(b-8) </span><span>≥ 0
The answer is that all possible values of b are in the interval (-inf, -8]∪[8,inf) because those are the intervals where </span>(b+8)(b-8) is positive.

A rectangle is 6 units wide and x-8 units long. It has the same area as a triangle with the height of 7 units and a base of x-3
Snowcat [4.5K]
AREA OF A RECTANGLE IS 42 UNITS

Rectangle:                             Triangle: 
A = L * W                             A = hb / 2
A = (x-8) * 6                         A = (7(x-3)) / 2
A = 6x - 48                            A = (7x - 21) / 2

Since the problem states that both rectangle and triangle have the same area.Then:

6x - 48 = (7x - 21) / 2

1) Eliminate the denominator 2 by multiplying both sides by 2.

2 * (6x - 48) = 2 * ((7x - 21) / 2)
12 x - 96 = 7x - 21

Find x. Transfer like numbers and change their signs.

12x - 7x = 96 - 21
5x = 75
5x / 5 = 75 / 5
x = 15

Substitute x by its value:

Rectangle:                            Triangle
A = (x-8) * 6          -                A = (7(x-3)) / 2                      Areas of both Rectangle
A = (15 -8 ) * 6                       A = (7(15-3)) / 2                      and Triangle is the same.
A = 7 * 6                                  A = (7 * 12) / 2
A = 42 units                            A = 84 / 2
                                               A = 42 units
