Two of the most popular options on a certain type of new car are automatic transmission and built-in GPS. Suppose that 90% of al

l buyers request automatic transmission, 82% of all buyers request built-in GPS, and 77% of all buyers request both automatic transmission and built-in GPS. Hint: It may be useful to draw Venn diagrams for these. What is the probability that the next person to purchase this car will request at least one of automatic transmission or built-in GPS

Answer:

0.95 = 95% probability that the next person to purchase this car will request at least one of automatic transmission or built-in GPS

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question treating these probabilities as Venn sets.

I am going to say that:

Event A: Requesting automatic transmission

Event B: Requesting built-in GPS

90% of all buyers request automatic transmission

This means that P(A) = 0.9

82% of all buyers request built-in GPS

This means that P(B) = 0.82

77% of all buyers request both automatic transmission and built-in GPS.

This means that P(A \cap B) = 0.77

What is the probability that the next person to purchase this car will request at least one of automatic transmission or built-in GPS

This is P(A \cup B), which is given by:

P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)

So

P(A \cup B) = 0.9 + 0.82 - 0.77 = 0.95

0.95 = 95% probability that the next person to purchase this car will request at least one of automatic transmission or built-in GPS

A survey of 100 students was taken concerning their knowledge of foreign languages. The results were as follows: 30 know French1
Sati [7]
35 students would not know any of the three languages, because if 30 know French, 19 knew German, and 16 knew Russian, that must mean that 65 students know at least one of the three languages. So you subtract 65 from 100 and end up with 35

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of linear equations 1/2x-3/4y=11/60 and 2/5x+1/6y=3/10
Leona [35]

Answer:

(\frac{2}{3} , \frac{1}{5})

Step-by-step explanation:

The fastest way to do this is to convert both equations into slope-intercept form and graph it to find the solution point. If you wanted to do this algebraically, you might want to start out by getting rid of the fractions and using either substitution or elimination to find x and y.

Simplify the problem 2/sqrt 5
AURORKA [14]
2/sqrt 5

by rationalising the denominator,

2/sqrt 5 × sqrt 5/sqrt 5

= 2(sqrt 5)/sqrt 5(sqrt 5)

= 2 sqrt 5/5

In 3 apples cost 48¢ , how many dozen apples can be bougth for $3.84?
Law Incorporation [45]

1 dozen = 12 apples.

3 apples cost 0.48, multiply that by 4 to get the price of 1 dozen.

0.48 x 4 = $1.92 per dozen.


Divide the total you can spend ( 3.84) by cost per dozen:


3.48 / 1.92 = 2


You can buy 2 dozen.
