Fantom [35]

Answer:

$0.66$

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Suppose that in a certain county $37\%$ of voters are registered as Democrats, $29\%$ as Republicans, $7\%$ as Green party, and the rest are considered Independents. You conduct a poll by calling registered voters in the county at random.

TO FIND: Probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican.

SOLUTION:

Lets total population of county be $100x$ .

voters registered as Democrats $=37\%=\frac{37}{100}\times100x$

$=37x$

voters registered as Republicans $=29\%=\frac{29}{100}\times100x$

$=29x$

voters registered as Green party $=7\%=\frac{7}{100}\times100x$

$=7x$

Probability that first call will be to Democrats $P(A)=\frac{\text{total democrats}}{\text{total voters}}$

$=\frac{37x}{100x}=0.37$

Probability that first call will be to Republican $P(B)=\frac{\text{total republicans}}{\text{total voters}}$

$=\frac{29x}{100x}=0.29$

probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican

$=P(A)+P(B)$

$=0.37+0.29$

$=0.66$

Hence the probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican is $0.66$

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

For 11 1/2 gallons, he paid $36.80.

We need to find the cost per gallon.

First, converting 11 1/2 gallons to decimal, it is:

1/2 = 0.5

So, 11 1/2 is 11.5 gallons

So, Cost Per Gallon (last week) = $\frac{36.80}{11.5}=3.2$

There is 5% increase on this $3.20 per gallon. We find 5% of 3.2 and add it to 3.2 to find this week's cost per gallon.

5% = 5/100 = 0.05

0.05 * 3.20 = 0.16

So,

3.20 + 0.16 = $3.36 per gallon

Cost Per Gallon (this week) = $3.36

To buy 9 1/4 gallons it would take:

$3.36*9.25=31.08$

Note: 1/4 = 0.25, so 9 1/4 = 9.25

It would cost $31.08 to buy 9.25 gallons this week

Correct answer is B

The manager at Food Town estimates that the store sold 325 jars of spaghetti sauce last week. The store actually sold 297 jars o

never [62]

There is a positive, linear relationship between the correct and guessed calories. The guessed calories for 5 oz. of spaghetti with tomato sauce and the cream-filled snack cake are unusually high and do not appear to fit the overall pattern displayed for the other foods. The correlation is r = 0.825 . This agrees with the positive association observed in the plot; it is not closer to 1 because of the unusual guessed calories for spaghetti and cake. The fact that the guesses are all higher than the true calorie count does not influence the correlation. The correlation r would not change if every guess were 100 calories higher. The correlation r does not change if a constant is added to all values of a variable because the standardized values would be unchanged. The correlation without these two foods is r = 0.984 . The correlation is closer to 1 because the relationship is much stronger without these two foods.
