Using proportions, it is found that there is a 0.54 = 54% probability that a randomly selected household owns a cat.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of total amount.
In this problem, the proportions associated with owning a cat are given by:
- 70% of 60%(also have a dog).
- 30% of 40%(do not have a dog).
Hence:
p = 0.7(0.6) + 0.3(0.4) = 0.42 + 0.12 = 0.54.
0.54 = 54% probability that a randomly selected household owns a cat.

Step-by-step explanation:
3(5x - 4) = 2(7x)
=> 15x - 12 = 14x
=> x = 12

Answer:
The solutions of a quadratic equation on a graph is the point where the graph cuts across the x and y axes. The maximum number of solutions given by solving a quadratic equation is 2 solutions because the maximum power in a quadratic equation is power 2
Answer:
a. 1/10 or 10%
b. 1/2 or 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the combination of machines 1, 2 and 3 produce 100% of the total output when added together, then the probability of choosing a bolt at random that is defective is: 5 + 2 + 3 = 10% out of 100% or 10/100, which is 1/10 or 10%.
If the bolt that is choosen at random is defective, than the probability that it came from machine 1 is 5/10 or 1/2 which is also 50%.
