Answer:

Option 3 - 51%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a class of 160 students, 90 are taking math, 78 are taking science, and 62 are taking both math and science.

To find : What is the probability of randomly choosing a student who is not taking science?

Solution :

We can show this situation through Venn diagram,

Refer the attached figure below.

Take the Blue circle as the students taking math and Red circle as the student taking science.

Total number of student = 160

Let M be the student taking math M=90

S be the student taking math S=78

M\cap S=B=62

The student only take math is 90-62=28=P

The student only take science is 78-62=16=Q

Total students cover the circle is  28+62+16 = 106

Remaining students who are not in either two circles is 160-106=54

The remaining students and student taking math only is 28+54=82

So, 82 students are those who are not taking science.

The probability of student who is not taking science is

P=\frac{82}{160}=\frac{41}{80}=0.51

In percentage, 0.51=51%.

Therefore, Option 3 is correct.

The probability of student who is not taking science is 51%.

leonid [27]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>As the number of copies increases The dimension of images continues to decrease until reaching 0. </u>

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Remember, that the term dimension refers not to an unlimited/unending length but to a specific measurable length.

Therefore, as both copy machines reduces the dimensions of images that are run through the machines over time the dimensions of images would decrease until reaching 0; Implying that the dimension is so small to be invisible, in a sense becoming 0.

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

a

The Null hypothesis represented as

     H_0: \mu_1 -  \mu_2  = 0

   

The Alternative hypothesis represented as

     H_a: \mu_1 -  \mu_2  <  0

b

p-value =  P(Z <  -3.37  )  = 0.000376

c

There is insufficient evidence to conclude that graduate students score higher, on average, on the HPI than undergraduate students

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population size is  n= 650

    The  sample size for graduates is  n_1 =  300

     The sample  mean for graduates is \= x _1 =  148

      The sample  standard deviation for graduates is \sigma_1  =  16

    The  sample size for under-graduates is n _2 = 350

         The sample  mean for under-graduates is \= x _2 =  153

         The sample  standard deviation for graduates is \sigma_2  =  21

The Null hypothesis represented as

     H_0: \mu_1 -  \mu_2  = 0

   

The Alternative hypothesis represented as

     H_a: \mu_1 -  \mu_2  <  0

Where \mu_1 \ and \  \mu_2 are the population mean

  Now the test statistic is mathematically represented as

          t =  \frac{(\= x_1 - \= x_2 ) }{ \sqrt{ \frac{ (n_1 - 1 )\sigma_1 ^2 + (n_2 - 1)\sigma_2^2}{n_1 +n_2 -2} }  * \sqrt{ \frac{1}{n_1}  + \frac{1}{n_2} } }

substituting values

       t =  \frac{(148 - 153 ) }{ \sqrt{ \frac{ (300- 1 )16 ^2 + (350 - 1) 21^2}{300 +350 -2} }  * \sqrt{ \frac{1}{300}  + \frac{1}{350} } }

      t = -3.37

The p-values is mathematically evaluated as

     p-value =  P(Z <  -3.37  )  = 0.000376

The above answer is gotten using a p-value calculator  at (0.05) level of significance

     Looking the p-value we see that it is less than the level of significance (0.05)  so Null hypothesis is rejected

Hence there is insufficient evidence to conclude that graduate students score higher, on average, on the HPI than undergraduate students

Find the solution set of the following equations: <br><br>2y=2x+7<br><br>X=y+2
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The system of equations has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

2y = 2x+7

x = y+2

solving the system of equations

\begin{bmatrix}2y=2x+7\\ x=y+2\end{bmatrix}

Arrange equation variables for elimination

\begin{bmatrix}2y-2x=7\\ -y+x=2\end{bmatrix}

Multiply -y+x=2 by 2:  -2y+2x=4

\begin{bmatrix}2y-2x=7\\ -2y+2x=4\end{bmatrix}

so adding

-2y+2x=4

+

\underline{2y-2x=7}

0=11

so the system of equations becomes

\begin{bmatrix}2y-2x=7\\ 0=11\end{bmatrix}

0 = 11 is false, therefore the system of equations has no solution.

Thus,

No Solution!

Which statement identifies how to show that j(x) = 11.6ex and k(x) = In (StartFraction x Over 11.6 EndFraction) are inverse func
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

<h2>It must be shown that both j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function  j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6}, to show that both equality functions are true, all we need to show is that both  j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x,

For j(k(x));

j(k(x)) = j[(ln x/11.6)]

j[(ln (x/11.6)] = 11.6e^{ln (x/11.6)}

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6(x/11.6) (exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm)

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6 * x/11.6

j[(ln x/11.6)] = x

Hence j[k(x)] = x

Similarly for k[j(x)];

k[j(x)] = k[11.6e^x]

k[11.6e^x] = ln (11.6e^x/11.6)

k[11.6e^x]  = ln(e^x)

exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm leaving x

k[11.6e^x]  = x

Hence k[j(x)] = x

From the calculations above, it can be seen that j[k(x)] =  k[j(x)]  = x, this shows that the functions j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6} are inverse functions.

Nikita ran a 5-kilometer race in 39 minutes (0.65 of an hour) without training beforehand. In the first part of the race, her av
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
First part of the race

speed1, s1 = 8.75 km/h
distance1 = 5 km - x
time 1 = 0.65 h - t

Second part of the race

speed2, s2 = 6 km/h
distance2 = x
time2 = t

s2 = x/t = 6 ⇒ t = x / 6

s1 = [5 - x] / [0.65 - t] = 8.75

5 - x = 8.75 [0.65 - t]

5 -x = 8.75(0.65) - 8.75t

5 - x = 5.6875 - 8.75 (x/6)

5 - x = 5.6875 - 1.4583x

1.4583 x - x = 5.6875 - 5

0.4583 x = 0.6875

x = 0.6875 / 0.4583 = 1.5
