Exams are approaching and Helen is allocating time to studying for exams. She feels that with the appropriate amount of studying

, she has an 80% chance of getting an A in Marketing. She also feels that she has a 60% chance of getting an A in Spanish with the appropriate amount of studying. Given the demands on her time, she feels that she has only a 45% chance of getting an A in both classes. What is the probability that Helen does not get an A in either class?

Answer: 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = Event of getting an A in Marketing class.

S = Event of getting an A in Spanish class,

i.e. P(M) = 0.80 , P(S) = 0.60 and P(M∩S)=0.45

Required probability = P(neither M nor S)

= P(M'∩S')

= P(M∪S)'                                 [∵P(A'∩B')=P(A∪B)']

=1- P(M∪S)                               [∵P(A')=1-P(A)]

= 1- (P(M)+P(S)- P(M∩S))   [∵P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)]

= 1- (0.80+0.60-0.45)

= 1- 0.95

= 0.05

hence, the probability that Helen does not get an A in either class= 0.05

Alice has a 4-inch by 5-inch photo of your school’s championship girls’ ice hockey team. To celebrate their recent
Pachacha [2.7K]

Alice should pick the enlarged-photo with dimensions of 8-inch by 10-inch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In order for a part of the photo to not be cut off, the enlarged photo's dimensions should be of a constant ratio with the original photo's dimensions.

We divide the dimensions of the enlarged-photo with the dimensions of the original photo to check which has a constant ratio.

Step 2:

The original photo was a 4-inch by 5-inch photo.

Option 1 is 7-inch by 9-inch, so the ratios are

\frac{7}{4} = 1.75, \frac{9}{5} = 1.8. The ratios are different so this cannot be the enlarged photo's dimensions.

Option 2 is 8-inch by 10-inch, so the ratios are

\frac{8}{4} = 2, \frac{10}{5} = 2. The ratios are the same so this can be the enlarged photo's dimensions.

Option 3 is 12-inch by 16-inch, so the ratios are

\frac{12}{4} = 3, \frac{16}{5} = 3.2. The ratios are different so this cannot be the enlarged photo's dimensions.

So the enlarged-photo with dimensions of 8-inch by 10-inch should be picked.

We know that
A barber shop produces 96 haircuts a day----------> <span>8 hours per day
so
96/8--------> 12 haircuts per hour

if </span><span>if the shop's productivity is 2 haircuts per hour of labor

The heights of 82 roller coasters have a mean of 285.2 feet and a population standard deviation of 59.3 feet. Find the standardi
taurus [48]

Answer:

0.7673

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following:

The null and alternative hypothesis is,

H0: m = 290

Ha: m> 290

x = 285.2

m = 290

sd = 59.3

n = 82

is m the mean, sd the standard deviation and n the population size

Now we calculate the value of z like this:

z = (x - m) / sd / (n ^ (1/2))

z = (285.2 - 290) / 59.3 / (82 ^ (1/2))

z = -0.73

now

P (z> -0.73) = 1 - P (z <-0.73)

we look at the normal distribution table

P = 1 - 0.2327 = 0.7673

Therefore the value of p is equal to 0.7673
