Answer:

0.194


Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that BOTH are democrats means probability of <u>"one being democrat"</u> AND <u>"another also being democrat"</u>.

The AND means we need to MULTIPLY the individual probability of a person being democrat.

Probability that a voter is democrat is 44% (0.44) -- stated in the problem


Now, Probability BOTH being Democrats is simply MULTIPLYING 0.44 with 0.44

0.44*0.44=0.1936

Rounded to nearest thousandth, 0.194

Last answer choice is correct.

A person is standing exactly 36 ft from a telephone pole. There is a 30° angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the po
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

20.78feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The question made us to understand that the man is standing and also there is angle of elevation, then we need to draw a right triangle having a base equal to 36 feet with an angle from the base to the top of the pole which is 30 degrees.

tan= opposite side / adjacent side

Let height of the pole =h

Tan(30)= h/36

But tan 30degree= 1/√3

h= 36 × 1/√3

h= 20.78feet

Therefore, the height of the pole= 20.78feet

A Candlestick burns at a rate of 0.2 inches per hour. After 8 straight hours of burning , the candlestick is 13.4 inches tall. W
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:the original height of the candle is 14.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A Candlestick burns at a rate of 0.2 inches per hour. It means that the height of the candle is decreasing by 2 inches per hour. This decrease is in arithmetic progression. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

d = - 0.2 (it is decreasing)

n = 8

T8 = 13.4 inches

We want to determine the value of the first term, a. Therefore,

13.4 = a - 0.2(8 - 1)

13.4 = a - 1.4

a = 13.4 + 1.4 = 14.8 inches

Annie is running a trail that is 4 1/2 miles long. She ran the first 2/3 of the distance. Then the trail became very steep, so s
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Annie walked 1 11/12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Trail= 4 1/2 miles

Annie ran the first 2/3 miles

Remaining miles= Total miles - Miles covered first

= 4 1/2 - 2/3

= 9/2 - 2/3

= 27-4 / 6

= 23/6 miles

Remaining miles = 23/6 miles

Annie walked for 1/2 of the remaining distance

1/2 of the remaining miles= 1/2 × 23/6

=23 / 12

= 1 11/12

Annie walked 1 11/12 miles

19% of a certain population of students at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is affected by an autosomal dominant condition called ‘laz
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

81%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'L' be the dominant and 'l' e the recessive allele for ‘lazybuttness’.

Since ‘lazybuttness’ is an autosomal dominant condition, the 19% of students affected by the condition correspond to the  homozygous dominant (LL) and heterozygous (Ll) genotypes. Therefore, the rest of the population has the homozygous recessive genotype (ll) and is not affected. The frequency of students not affected is:

F = 100% - 19% = 81%
