Remember that, for independent events, the probability that both occurr is the product of the individual probabilities.
a) Probability of being contacted: 78% = 0.78
Probaility of refusing: 1 - 22% = 1 -0.22 = 0.78
Combined probability: 0.78*0.78 = 0.6084
b) The probability of failing to contact or making contact and not geeting them to agree 1 - the probability of contacting and getting them to agree.
The probabilityof contacting and getting them to agree is 0.78*0.22 = 0.1716
The the answer to this question is 1 - 0.1716 = 0.8284
Answer:
The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20
The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Explanation</u>:-
Let 'x' be the width
Given data the length of a rectangular patio is 8 feet less than twice its width
2x-8 = length
The area of rectangle = length X width
Given area of rectangle = 280 square feet
x(2x-8) = 280
2(x)(x-4) =280
x(x-4) =140
x^2 -4x -140=0
x^2-14x+10x-140=0
x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0
(x+10)(x-14) =0
x = -10 and x = 14
we can choose only x =14
The width of the rectangle 14
The length of the rectangle 2x-8 = 2(14)-8 = 28 -8 =20
The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20
The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
The answer to the question
