Hey there!

Before you start solving anything, you need to identify which situation you want to call event A and which you want to call event B. I usually just do it in the order of the events as they're given to me in the question, so:

A = S<span>tudent participates in student council
B = S</span><span>tudent participates in after school sports

Any problems that contain the word "given" in the question portion will want you to refer to </span>P(A | B)<span> = P(</span>A ∩ B)/P(B). P(A | B) literally means "probability of event A, given that event B has occurred." P(A ∩ B) is the probability of event A and B happening, and P(B) is just the probability of event B happening. We've been given all of that, so:

P(A | B) = P(A ∩ B)/P(B)
P(A | B) = 11% / 62%
P(A | B) = 0.11 / 0.62
P(A | B) = 0.18

There will be about an 18% chance that <span>a student participates in student council, given that the student participates in after school sports. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)</span>

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

At Monroe High School, 62% of all students participate in after school sports and 11% participate in both after school sports and student council.

A: students participate in after school sports

P(A)=0.62

B:students participate in student council

A∩B:students participate in  both after school sports and student council.

P(A∩B)=0.11

B/A: student participates in student council given that the student participates in after school sports

baye's theorem says that

P(A∩B)=P(B/A)×P(A)

0.11=P(B/A)×0.62

⇒ P(B/A)=0.18

Hence, probability that  student participates in student council given that the student participates in after school sports is:

  0.18

Adam, imran and shakeel we're playing a card game. Adam scored × points Imran scored 3 points fewer than Adam Shakeel scored twi
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

During the card game, the number of points that Adam scored is x. Imran scored 3 points fewer than Adam. It means that the number of points that Imran scored is

(x - 3) points

I)Shakeel scored twice as many points as imran. It means that the expression for the number of points that Shakeel scored is

2(x - 3) points

Ii) Together they scored 39 points. Therefore, the equation which may be used to find the value of × would be

x + x - 3 + 2(x - 3) = 39

x + x - 3 + 2x - 6 = 39

x + x + 2x - 3 - 6 = 39

4x - 9 = 39

The equation y = 1.55x + 110,419 approximates the total cost, in dollars, of raising a child in the united states from birth to
Andru [333]

Answer:

The correct option is A). $112295.05

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for approximating the total cost is given to be :

y = 1.55x + 110419 , where x is the annual household's income and y is the total cost in dollars of raising a child in the united states from birth to 17 years

We need to calculate the total cost of raising a child in the united states from birth to 17 years if the annual household's income is given to be $1211

So, for this we will use the given equation and substitute x = 1211 and find the value of y which will be our total cost

⇒ Total cost , y = 1.55 × 1211 + 110419

⇒ y = 1877.05 + 110419

⇒ y = 112296.05 ≈ 112295.05

Hence, The approximate total cost of raising a child from birth to 17 years in a household with a weekly income of $1211 = $112295.05

Therefore, The correct option is A). $112295.05

A country's population in 1993 was 94 million. in 1999 in was 99 million. estimate the population in 2005 using the exponential
Jet001 [13]
The initial population is
P₀ = 94 million in 1993

The growth formula is
P(t) = P_{0}e^{kt}
where P(t) is the population (in millions) after t years, measured from 1993.
k = constant.

Because P(5) = 99 million (in 1999), 
94e^{5k} = 99 \\e^{5k}=1.0532 \\ 5k = ln(1.0532) \\ k = 0.010367

In the year 2005, t = 12 years, and
P(12)=94e^{0.010367*12} = 106.45

Answer: 106 million (nearest million)
