Answer:

The correct option is B. 23%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event that patient brushes his teeth at least twice a day is denoted by A

So, P(A) = 0.83

Let the event that patient flosses daily is denoted by B

So, P(B) = 0.47

Now, it is given that 19 percent patients brush at least twice a day and floss daily.

⇒ P(A and B) = 0.19

Now, we need to find conditional probability of occurring event B given A has occurred.

\implies P(B|A) =\frac{P(A\: and\: B)}{P(A)}\\\\\implies P(B|A) = \frac{0.19}{0.83}\\\\\implies P(B|A) = 0.2289\approx 0.23

Hence, Nearest required percentage = 23%

Therefore, The correct option is B. 23%

what are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle in which one acute angle measures 19° and the hypotensue is 15 units long?
givi [52]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Given:
m∠A = 19°
c = 15

By definition,
sin A = a/c
Therefore
a = c*sin A = 15*sin(19°) = 4.8835

cos A = b/c
Therefore
b = c*cos A = 15*cos(19°) =14.1828

Answer:
The lengths are 4.88, 14.18, and 15.00  (nearest hundredth)
