Answer:
The probability of selecting two democrats is 1/380
Step-by-step explanation:
- Probability is the branch of mathematics that deals with numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur.
- Probability of an event = Number of favourable outcomes / Total number of outcomes.
Here we are given the people as,
8 democrats, 8 republicans and 6 independent.
So total number of people are: 8+6+6=20
Probability of choosing first democrat = 1/20
Probability of choosing first democrat = 1/19
Thus P( two democrats in succession ) = 1/20 ×1/19
= 1/380

<span>Z + 1/z = 2
Multiply 1 by both sides
z+z=2
Add z and z together
2z=2
Divide both sides by 2
Final Answer: z= 1</span>
Answer:
$ 7.50
Step-by-step explanation:
50 ----- 100%
x ------ 15%
x=50*15/100= 7.5

first I made the fraction have equal denominators which was 6 by doing that I multiplyed the numerator and the denominator
1/2
1×3=3
2×3=6
therefore 1/2 being equivalent to 3/6
1/3
1×2=2
3×2=6
therefore 1/3 being equivalent to 2/6
now you would be able to add the numerators, so 2+3=5
therefore being 5/6 of the paper is devoted to news and pictures
