The two conditional relative frequency tables below show the results of a survey asking students whether they are taking a forei

gn language or not.
Which table could be used to answer the question "Assuming a student is taking a foreign language, what is the probability the student is also in high school?”

A) Table A, because the given condition is that the student is in high school.

B) Table A, because the given condition is that the student is taking a foreign language.

C) Table B, because the given condition is that the student is in high school.

Answer:

option: B

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find out which table could be used to answer:

" What is the probability that the student is in high school given that he is taking a foreign language "

The answer is option: B

Since we are given a condition that the student is taking a foreign language and we need to find the probability that he is in high school.

  • <em>so P(High school)+P(Not in high school i.e. in Middle school)=1 ( where P denote the probability of an event)</em>

Such a condition is satisfied in Table A but not in Table B.

Hence, Option B is correct( Table A, because the given condition is that the student is taking a foreign language)

Jeff earned his pilot's license and flew to visit his brother 200 miles away. A headwind of 20 mph slowed down the plane's speed
lora16 [44]
<h2>Plane's speed without wind i s 117.68 mph</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have speed of plane without wind is x.

Distance to brothers place = 200 miles.

A headwind of 20 mph slowed down the plane's speed on the first leg of the trip

Speed to brothers place = x - 20

We have

         Distance = Speed x Time

         200=(x-20)\times t_1\\\\t_1=\frac{200}{x-20}

A tailwind of 20 mph sped up the plane on the return trip

Speed of return trip = x + 20

We have

         Distance = Speed x Time

         200=(x+20)\times t_2\\\\t_2=\frac{200}{x+20}

The entire trip took 3.5 hours.

That is

            t_1+t_2=3.5\\\\\frac{200}{x-20}+\frac{200}{x+20}=3.5\\\\200x+4000+2000x-4000=3.5(x-20)(x+20)\\\\400x=3.5x^2-1400\\\\7x^2-800x-2800=0\\\\\texttt{x = 117.68mph or x =-3.40mph}

Plane's speed without wind i s 117.68 mph

attashe74 [19]

Answer: \frac{11}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that:

- 2/5 of the spice mixture was oregano.

- 1/3 of the spice mixture was basil.

Then, to find the fraction of the total amount of spice mixture that was oregano and basil, you must add both fractions, as following:

- Find the least common multiply of the denominators:

LCM=5*3=15

- Divide the LCM by each original denominator and multiply the result by each numerator.

- Make the addition.

Then, the result is:

\frac{(2*3)+(1*5)}{15}=\frac{6+5}{15}=\frac{11}{15}

Mrs. Adams deposited $12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of 3.25%. She makes no other deposits or
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<em>Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

In simple interest, the money earns interest at a fixed rate, assuming no new money is coming in or out of the account.

We can calculate the interests earned by an investment of value A in a period of time t, at an interest rate r with the formula:

I=A.r.t

Mrs. Adams deposited an amount of A=$12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of r=3.25%. We must find the interest earned in t=8 years. The interest rate is converted to decimal as:

r=3.25/100=0.0325

The interest is then calculated:

I=12,000\cdot 0.0325\cdot 8=3,120

Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.
