Answer:
number 1 + number 2 + number 3 = 15
Number 1 = x + 12
Number 2 = x - 12
Number 3 = x
(x + 12) + (x - 12) + x = 15
x + 12 + x - 12 + x = 15
x + x + x +12 -12 = 15
3x = 15
x = 15/3 = 5
Check:
Number 1 = 17
Number 2 = 5 -12 = -7
Number = 5
number 1 + number 2 + number 3 = 15
17 + (-7) + 5 = 15
10 + 5 = 15
15 = 15
Answer is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer for this question is "y = -5/3 and x = 8/3"
Answer:
A) attached below
B) 0.61
C) 0.47
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Total number of lizards infected = 38
Of the 15 species B lizards 40% survived
For specie C one more survived than died
Out of the 24 lizards that died 1/3 were species A
<u>A) contingency table </u>
attached below
<u>B) Determine the proportion of these lizards in this study that were either specie A or Specie B </u>
P ( A or B ) = ( 8 + 15 ) / 38 = 0.605 ≈ 0.61
<u>C) determine the probability that specie C lizard did not study </u>
P ( not surviving | C ) = 7 / 15 = 0.466 ≈ 0.47
