Answer:

The probability that if a person is chosen at random has run to red light in the last year is 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a group of people were asked if they had run a red light in the last year, and 456 responded "yes", and 304 responded "no", to find the probability that if a person is chosen at random, they have run a red light in the last year, the following calculation must be performed:

456 + 304 = 760

760 = 100

456 = X

456 x 100/760 = X

45600/760 = X

60 = X

Therefore, the probability that if a person is chosen at random has run to red light in the last year is 60%.

Answer: $30

Step-by-step explanation:

She has the money in her account for 24 months which is 2 years.

Simple interest is formula is:

A = P (1 + rate * no. of periods)

= 750 * ( 1 + 2% * 2)

= $780

She started with $750 and now has $780.

Earnings in simple interest :

= 780 - 750

Elden [556K]

Answer:

<h2>1 </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A data arranged in descending order is a data arranged from the biggest to the smallest. The medisn of the data sets is the value at the middle of the dataset after rearrangment.

For the dataset {8, x, 4,1}, the median will be x and 4. Since we have two median values, we will take their average as shown

Median(1) = \frac{x+4}{2}... 1

Simialrly for dataset {9, y, 5,2}, the median will be y and 5.

Median(2) = \frac{y+5}{2} ...2

Since the medians of  the two given datasets are equal, we will equate equation 1 and 2 and calculate for y-x as shown;

\frac{x+4}{2} = \frac{y+5}{2}

x+4 = y+5\\x-y = 5-4\\x-y = 1\\y-x = -1

Therefore y-x = -1

(y-x)² = (-1)²

= 1
