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

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Option C The parties with a larger number of customers are associated with the longer times elapsed until the party left the restaurant.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient 0.78 shows that positive association between two variables number of customers and elapsed time until party left restaurant.

The positive association means that as the number of customers in a party increases the elapsed time also increase. So, we can say that the parties with a larger number of customers are associated with the longer times elapsed until the party left the restaurant.

The graph is attached.

We first graph the point where his catch reached the surface, (35, 0).  Since it travels upward at a constant rate, the graph will be linear.  We also need to know where it starts (what depth it is at when he begins reeling it in).  We can use the formula d=rt as a template for our function.  d would be distance (in our case, depth), r is the rate (speed) and t is the amount of time.

To find how far the catch had to travel to reach the surface, we set up our equation as:
d = 0.1(35) 

This will tell us how much distance it traveled in 35 seconds.  0.1(35)=3.5, so the catch started 3.5m under water.  It then travels up at 0.1 m per second.
