You were on the right track. Here are two ways to go about it.
• By definition of conditional probability,
Pr[A | B] = Pr[A and B] / Pr[B]
Out of the total 100 participants in the survey, there are 18 people that both have a positive attitude and are over 35, so
Pr[positive and over 35] = 18/100
Out of the 100 pariticipants, 40 are over 35, so
Pr[over 35] = 40/100
Then the conditional probability you want is (18/100) / (40/100) = 18/40 = 9/20.
• There are 40 people over 35 in the survey. You want the probability that someone randomly chosen from this group has a positive attitude, of which there are 18. Hence the probability is 18/40 = 9/20.
Answer: 22 minutes
Step-by-step explanation: 500-170 means that he drained 330 gallons of water so 330 divided by 15 gallons a minute so you get 22 so it takes 22 minutes to have 170 gallons left in the pool
Answer:
225 necklaces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that they have the necessary amount of straws to match the beads then we can use the following simple equation to solve this problem.
t = b/12 ... where t is the total amount of necklaces and b is the number of beads you have
t = 2700 / 12
225 necklaces.
For 225 necklaces you would also need 1125 straws since each necklace requires 5 straws to be fully made. Therefore if you have this amount you should not run into any problems.
<span>100% of $X plus 100% of $Y equals $1000
4% of $X plus 6% of $Y equals $58
To solve that clear the second equation of decimals by
multiplying through by 100:
Solve that by either substitution or by elimination:
X = $100 at 4% and $900 at 6%</span>
