A whole number from 1 to 15 inclusive is picked at random.

Helen [10]

Answer:

a) 3/7

b) 3/5

Explanation:

The figure attached shows the Venn diagram for the given sets.

a) What is the probability that the number chosen is a multiple of 3 given that it is a factor of 24?

From the whole numbers 1 to 15, the multiples of 3 that are factors of 24 are in the intersection of the two sets: 3, 6, and 12.

There are a total of 7 multiples of 24, from 1 to 15.

Then, there are 3 multiples of 3 out of 7 factors of 24, and the probability that the number chosen is a multiple of 3 given that is a factor of 24 is:

b) What is the probability that the number chosen is a factor of 24 given that it is a multiple of 3?

The factors of 24 that are multiples of 3 are, again, 3, 6, and 12. Thus, 3 numbers.

The multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15: 5 numbers.

Then, the probability that the number chosen is a factor of 24 given that is a multiple of 3 is:

A taco costs $5
This is because there was no difference in the cost except for $5. The only item added was one taco. Drinks cost $2 each.

OLEGan [10]

Let w represent the amount the wife receives.
.. w +2*(2/3*w) = 945,000
.. 7/3w = 945,000
.. w = (3/7)*945,000 = 405,000

The wife will receive $405,000.

billy is creating a circular garden divided into 8 equal sections. The diameter of the garden is 12 feet. what is the area, in s

xxTIMURxx [149]

Area=πr^2

find the area then divide by 8

we know that diameter=2radius or diameter/2=radius so
12=diameter
12/2=radius=6
subsitute
area=π(6)^2
area=36π
divide 36π by 8
36π/8=18π/4=9π/2π=4.5π
area of one section is 4.5π square feet or if we aprox pito 3.14159 then we get
4.5(3.14159)=area=14.1372 square feet or 14.14 square feet
