Answer:
i) Probability that both candidates employed are women = 5/14
ii) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = 5/8
iii) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman = 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the probability that a man is employed be P(M) = 3/8
Probability that a woman is employed P(W) = 5/8
a) Probability that both candidates employed are women = (5/8) × (4/7) = 5/14
b) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = (probability that first candidate is a man and second candidate is a woman) + (probability that first candidate is a woman & second candidate is a woman)
= (3/8)(5/7) + (5/8)(4/7) = (15/56) + (20/56) = 35/56 = 5/8
c) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman
Given that the second candidate was a women, means that the first candidate-women was selected among other four women.
Probability = (4/8)/(5/8) = 4/5
Answer:
3.066543
Step-by-step explanation:
This number is between 3.077243 and 3.0721
<span>Let the extension of the length and width be x.
The new dimensions are: Length = 8+x
Width =3+x
Area = 104 ft squared
Area of a rectangle = Length x Width
Therefore,
(8+x)(3+x) = 104
x^2 +11x +24=104
x^2 +11x +24-104=0
x^2 +11x-80=0
Factorize using splitting the middle term method.
X^2 +16x-5x-80=0
x(x+16)-5(x+16)=0
(x-5)(x+16)=0
either x-5 = 0 or x+16=0
x=5 or x=-16
length and width measure cannot be negative.
Therefore, the extension of the length and width is 5 feet each.</span>
