Answer:

27.19% probability that a female driver was involved in an accident

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

74,250 car accidents. Of those, in 20,187, the driver was a female.

Based on this, what is the probability that a female driver was involved in an accident?

p = 20187/74250 = 0.2719

John's commute to work is 20kmhr while Sheri's commute is 500mmin. Who has the fastest commute to work in mihrif 1.61km=1mi? A S

Andreyy89

Answer:

A) Sheri has the faster commute by 6.2 miles/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

John's commute to work $=20\ km/hr$

Sheri's commute to work $=500\ m/min$

$1.61\ km = 1\ mile$

John's commute to work in miles per hour = $\frac{20\ km}{1 hr}\times \frac{1\ mile}{1.61\ km}= 12.42\ miles/hr$

Sheri's commute to work in miles per hour = $\frac{500\ m}{1\ min}\times \frac{1\ km}{1000\ m}\times \frac{1\ mile}{1.61\ km}\times \frac{60\ min}{1\ hr}= 18.63\ miles/ hr$
