Answer:

20 days

Step-by-step explanation:

It takes 12 men 5 days to complete a job. Work out how many days it would take 3 men to complete the same job.

12 * 5 = 60

60/3 = 20

It will take 3 men 20 days to do the same job

Out of 450 applicants for a job, 206 are male and 62 are male and have a graduate degree.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

0.3009 is the probability that the applicant has graduate degree given he is a male.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given he following in the question:

M: Applicant is male.

G: Applicant have a graduate degree

Total number of applicants = 450

Number of male applicants = 206

$n(M) = 206$

Number of applicants that are male and have a graduate degree = 62

$n(M\cap G) = 62$

$\text{Probability} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

$P(M) = \dfrac{206}{450} = 0.4578$

$P(M\cap G) = \dfrac{n(M\cap G)}{n} = \dfrac{62}{450} = 0.1378$

We have to find the probability that the applicant has graduate degree given he is a male.

$P(G|M) = \dfrac{P(G\cap M)}{P(M)} = \dfrac{\frac{62}{450}}{\frac{206}{450}} = \dfrac{62}{206} = 0.3009$

Thus, 0.3009 is the probability that the applicant has graduate degree given he is a male.

A circle is centered at the point (-7, -1) and passes through the point (8, 7).The radius of the circle is____ units. The point

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Part 1) The radius of the circle is r=17 units

Part 2) The points (-15,14) and (-15,-16) lies on this circle

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the radius of the circle

we know that

The distance between the center of the circle and any point on the circle is equal to the radius of the circle

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have

(-7, -1) and (8, 7)

substitute

$r=\sqrt{(7+1)^{2}+(8+7)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(15)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{289}$

$r=17\ units$

step 2

Find out the y-coordinate of point (-15,y)

The equation of the circle in standard form is equal to

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

where

(h,k) is the center

r is the radius

substitute the values

$(x+7)^2+(y+1)^2=17^2$

$(x+7)^2+(y+1)^2=289$

Substitute the value of x=-15 in the equation

$(-15+7)^2+(y+1)^2=289$

$64+(y+1)^2=289$

$(y+1)^2=289-64$

$(y+1)^2=225$

square root both sides

$(y+1)=(+/-)15$

$y=-1(+/-)15$

$y=-1(+)15=14$

$y=-1(-)15=-16$

therefore

we have two solutions

point (-15,14) and point (-15,-16)
