Answer:

0.0326 = 3.26% probability that she is a student.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Woman developer

Event B: Student

Probability that the developer is a woman:

7.4% of 25.8%(students).

76.4% of 100 - 25.8 = 74.2%(not students). So

P(A) = 0.074*0.258 + 0.764*0.742 = 0.58598

Student and woman developer.

7.4% of 25.8%(students), so

P(A \cap B) = 0.074*0.258 = 0.019092

If we encounter a woman developer, what is the probability that she is a student

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.019092}{0.58598} = 0.0326

0.0326 = 3.26% probability that she is a student.

8. A can do a piece of work in 16 days, B in 10 days. A and B work at it together for 6 days and then C finishes it in 3 days. I
cupoosta [38]

Answer: 120 days

Step-by-step explanation:

A can complete it in 16 days.

=100/16 =6.25%/day.

B has ten days to do it.

10% every day is equal to 100/10.

So they would each contribute 16.25 percent per day as a group.

then for six days,

16.25*6 =97.50percent

97.50% of the work has been finished, in other words.

The amount of work left is now 100-97.5 = 2.5.

C finishes up the remaining job in 3 days

3.5% in 3 days, to be exact.

Consequently, he will finish his entire project in 120 days.

[2.5 * 40 = 100 percent; 40 * 3 = 120 days]

Please help me!! Use the identities
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

tan 5π/24.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the identity:

tan (A - B) =   (tan A - tan B) / (1 + tan A tan B)

so the first expression simplifies to

tan ( π/3 -  π/8)

= tan 5π/24.

Classify the polygon as regular or irregular, and concave or convex.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

This would be a regular polygon.

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular polygon has congruent sides and interior angles.

An irregular polygon does not have congruent sides and all interior angles.

A convex polygon does not have a interior angle greater than 180°.

Lastly, a concave polygon has only one interior angle greater than 180°.

Using the process of elimination, it would not be a convex or concave polygon. Now we have either a regular or irregular polygon. This polygon can not be a irregular polygon because all the sides are congruent. This means that this polygon is a regular polygon!
