In a survey of a town, 56% of residents own a car, 21% of residents now a truck, and 4% of residents own both a car and a truck.

What is the conditional probability that a person also owns a truck, given that they own car? Round to the nearest whole percent.

Answer:

P(A given B)=0.190

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that In a survey of a town, 56% of residents own a car, that is P(A)=0.56

21% of residents now a truck, that is P(B)=0.21

and 4% of residents own both a car and a truck that is P(A∩B)=0.04

Now, the conditional probability that a person also owns a truck, given that they own car is:

P(A given B)=\frac{P(A{\cap}B)}{P(B)}

P(A given B)=\frac{0.04}{0.21}

P(A given B)=0.190

Thus, the conditional probability that a person also owns a truck, given that they own car is 0.190.

Find the product (4x-3) (3x+8)
m_a_m_a [10]

Hi there!

Assuming "Find the product" means multiplying (4x-3) by (3x+8) and factor to it's simplest form the answer would be:

12x²+23x-24

The way you solve this is by using the distributive property of multiplication as shown below:

Start by multiplying -3 from (4x-3) by everything in (3x+8)

3x*(-3) = -9x

8*(-3) = -24

Once you've done that you then multiply everything 4x

4x*8 = 32x

4x*3x = 12x²

(Note: when multiplying two of the same variables like x it means you are multiplying x by itself which is the same as x²)

When you put all of this together it looks like this

12x²+32x-9x-24

from there we combine like terms

32x-9x = 23x

to get

12x²+23x-24

I hope this helps!

God bless,

Help me solve these two questions please!

They are simple linear equations with one unknown, lets tackle them, one step at the time solving for the unknown:
4x - 2(x - 5) = x + 13
4x - 2x + 10 = x + 13
2x + 10 = x + 13
2x - x = 13 - 10
x = 3
that is the solution.

3(6 - x) - 4 = 5x + 2(7x + 3)
18 - 3x - 4 = 5x + 14x + 6
14 - 3x = 19x + 6
14 -  6 = 19x + 3x
8 = 22x
x = 8/22 = 4/11

Find the value of x
marin [14]

Answer:

x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is a right triangle, meaning it is a triangle with a right angle, this is indicated by the box around one of the angles. When given a right triangle, one can use the right triangle trigonometric ratios. These ratios describe the relationship between an angle in a right triangle, and the sides in a right triangle. Such ratios are as follows,

sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\cos(\theta)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\\tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

Bear in mind that the way one names the sides, in the sense of (opposite or adjacent) will change based on the angle one uses to describe the triangle. However, the hypotenuse is the same no matter the angle, as the hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle.

In this case, one is given one of the angles, and the side opposite the angle. One is asked to find the hypotenuse of the triangle. One can use the sine (sin) ratio to achieve this.

sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Substitute,

sin(30)=\frac{7}{x}

Inverse operations,

x=\frac{7}{sin(30)}

Simplify,

x=14
