The figure attached shows the <em>Venn diagram </em>for the given sets.

<em><u>a) What is the probability that the number chosen is a multiple of 3 given that it is a factor of 24?</u></em>
<em />
From the whole numbers 1 to 15, the multiples of 3 that are factors of 24 are in the intersection of the two sets: 3, 6, and 12.
There are a total of 7 multiples of 24, from 1 to 15.
Then, there are 3 multiples of 3 out of 7 factors of 24, and the probability that the number chosen is a multiple of 3 given that is a factor of 24 is:
- 3/7
<em><u /></em>
<em><u>b) What is the probability that the number chosen is a factor of 24 given that it is a multiple of 3?</u></em>
The factors of 24 that are multiples of 3 are, again, 3, 6, and 12. Thus, 3 numbers.
The multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15: 5 numbers.
Then, the probability that the number chosen is a factor of 24 given that is a multiple of 3 is:
- 3/5

Answer:
The Point C shows the location of 5-2i in the complex plane: 5 points to the right of the origin and 2 points down from the origin.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the complex number 5-2i and we have to show the location of the point that represents that number in the complex plane
In the complex plane the real numbers are located in the horizontal axis, increasing to the right. The positives real numbers are at the right of the origin and the negatives to the left.
The complex numbers are located in the vertical axis, with the positives over the origin and the negatives below the origin.
This complex number 5-2i is the sum of a real part (5) and a imaginary part (-2i), so the point will be 5 units rigth on the horizontal axis (for the real part) and 2 units down in the vertical axis (for the imaginary part).
