Surveys indicate that 5% of the students who took the SATs had enrolled in an SAT prep course. 30% of the SAT prep students were

admitted to their first choice college, as were 20% of the other students. You overhear a classmate say he got into the college he wanted. What is the probability he didn't take an SAT prep course?

Answer: The probability he didn't take an SAT prep course = 0.985

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first assume that he took SAT prep.

Surveys indicate that 5% of the students who took the SATs had enrolled in an SAT prep course. 30% of the SAT prep students were admitted to their first choice college. That is,

30/ 100 of 5 = 0.3 × 5 = 1.5

The probability he did take an SAT prep course and got admission into the college of first choice will be

P(prep) = 1.5 / 100 = 0.015

The probability he didn't take an SAT prep course will be:

P(not prep) = 1 - P(prep)

P(not prep) = 1 - 0.015

P(not prep) = 0.985

Triangle SQT is isosceles. The measure of angle STQ is 48°. Triangle S Q T is cut by perpendicular bisector T R. The lengths of
igomit [66]

Answer:

m\angle STR=24^o

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

m\angle STQ=m\angle STR+m\angle RTQ ---> by addition angle postulate

we have

m\angle STQ=48^o ----> given problem

m\angle STR=m\angle RTQ ----> given problem

substitute in the expression above

48^o=2m\angle STR

Divide by 2 both sides

m\angle STR=24^o

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of liquid water is 9605 kilo joule .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The mass of liquid water = 50 g

The initial temperature = T_1 = 15°c

The final temperature = T_2  = 100°c

The latent heat of vaporization of water = 2260.0 J/g

Let The amount of heat required to raise temperature = Q Joule

Now, From method

Heat = mass × latent heat × change in temperature

Or, Q = m × s × ΔT

or, Q =  m × s × ( T_2 - T_1 )

So, Q = 50 g × 2260.0 J/g × ( 100°c - 15°c )

Or, Q =  50 g × 2260.0 J/g × 85°c

∴   Q = 9,605,000  joule

Or, Q =  9,605 × 10³ joule

Or, Q = 9605 kilo joule

Hence The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of liquid water is 9605 kilo joule . Answer
