Answer:
sister = 6 years
John=18 years
Step-by-step explanation:
A(S) + 12 = 3 * A(S), subtracting A(S) from both sides one gets 12 = 2 * A(S). Now dividing both sides by 2 we get A(S) = 12/2 = 6 . Therefore, the age of the sister is 6 years when her brother John is three times as old, that is 18 years.
Answer:
9/12 or 75%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first add the choices all up.
5+4+3= 12.
We have 12 movie choices in total.
Now, we know that we have 3 drama movie choices...so the chance we will choose drama is 3/12, but we are not finding that. We want the chance she will NOT choose drama, so that would be 9/12.
*Since the chance she will choose drama is 3/12, the chance she will not choose is 9/12. 9+3 is 12, the total amout.*
Answer:
0.3875
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that in a group of college students, the ratio of men to women is 3:1 (i.e., 3 to 1). In a recent survey, 40% of the men in this group selected hiking as their favorite outdoor activity whereas 35% of the women in the group selected hiking as their favorite outdoor activity
From the above information we find that
P(Men) = 0.75 and P(women) = 0.25 (since men:women = 3:1)
Out of men prob for not selecting hiking as their favorite outdoor activity

Out of women prob for not selecting hiking as their favorite outdoor activity

Prob for a randomly selected person that hiking is not his/her favorite outdoor activity = Prob (man and not selected activitiy) + P(women and not selected activity) (since men and women are mutually exclusive and exhaustive)

Answer:
g = 
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 3g + 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
x - 2 = 3g ( divide both sides by 3 )
= g
