An airline gathers data on late departures and early arrivals over a month. It finds that the probability of a late departure is

12 percent, the probability of an early arrival is 27 percent, and the probability of both a late departure and an early arrival is 4 percent. Which equation shows how to correctly calculate the probability of a late departure or an early arrival?
P(late departure or early arrival) = 0.12 + 0.04

P(late departure or early arrival) = 0.12 + 0.27

P(late departure or early arrival) = 0.12 + 0.27 – 0.04

P(late departure or early arrival) = 0.27 + 0.04 – 0.12


Answer is C: P(late departure or early arrival) = 0.12 + 0.27 – 0.04

Answer: P(late departure or early arrival) = 0.12 + 0.27 – 0.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability of a late departure is 12 %t, the probability of an early arrival is 27%.

i.e. P(late departure)=0.12

P(an early arrival)=0.27

The probability of both a late departure and an early arrival is 4 percent.

P(late departure and early arrival) =0.04

Now, using formula the probability of union of two dependent events A and B:-

\text{P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B)}

i.e. P(late departure or early arrival) = P(late departure)+P(an early arrival)-P(late departure and early arrival)

=0.12+0.27-0.0.04

Hence, the required equation : P(late departure or early arrival) = 0.12 + 0.27 – 0.04

To answer this question, an assumption must be made, that Eva spends 8 hours a day working. If this is the case, then Eva will complete jobs w, x, and v on day one, for a total of six hours. Since the next job (y) requires 4 hours, she will spend two hours working that day, leaving 2 more hours to go on that job. The next day she will spend 2 hours finishing job y, completing it, and finish the longest job z (hours) that day. This means she had 4 jobs on day one, and 2 jobs on day 2 for and average of 3 jobs per day.  
This answer assumes an 8 hour work day, and that Eva can start a job she cannot finish that day.

How are the two functions f(x) = 0.7(6)x and g(x) = 0.7(6)–x related to each other?
Harlamova29_29 [7]
The answer
f(x) = 0.7(6)x = <span>f(x) = 0.7(6)^x, and  </span><span>g(x) = 0.7(6)–x= </span>g(x) = 0.7(6)^-x=1/<span>0.7(6)^x
so </span>
g(x) =1/<span>0.7(6)^x=1 /</span><span><span>f(x)

</span> the relationship between f and g are </span>g(x) =1 /<span>f(x) or </span><span>g(x) . <span>f(x) = 1</span> </span>

A large city in the ancient world was square-shaped. measured in miles, its area numerically exceeded its perimeter by about 132
melisa1 [442]
Area = perimeter + 132.  

Let  each side of the city be x miles long, then:-

x^2 = 4x  + 132
x^2 - 4x - 132 = 0

x  =  [-(-4) +/- sqrt((-4)^2 - 4 * 1 *-132)] / 2

x = 13.66, -9.66   We ignore the negative

So the city  has dimension of 13.66 * 13.66

13.7 * 13.7   to nearest 10th

aksik [14]
Fixed costs:
$350 + $120 + $170 = $640
Variable costs:
x * ( $6.50 + $3.64 ) = x * 10.14
Sales income ( total ):
x * $36.40
FC + FV - Income = 0
640 + 10.14 x - 36.40 x = 0
640 - 26.26 x = 0
26.26 x = 640
x = 640 : 26.26 = 24.37
Answer:
The minimum number of passengers needed per cruise, so that the cruise company can be sure it will make a profit is 25.

2 A pharmacist has a 13 % alcohol solution and another 18 % alcohol solution. How much of each must he use to make 50 grams of a
nalin [4]
<h2>Therefore he took 40 gram of 1^{st} type solution and 10 gram of 2^{nd} type solution.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that , A pharmacist 13% alcohol solution another 18% alcohol solution .

Let he took x gram solution of 1^{st} type solution

and he took (50-x) gram of 2^{nd} type solution.

Total  amount of alcohol =[x\times\frac{13}{100}] +[(50 -x) \times\frac{18}{100} ] gram

Total amount of solution = 50 gram

According to problem

⇔\frac{ [x\times\frac{13}{100}] +[(50 -x) \times\frac{18}{100} ]}{50}= \frac{14}{100}

⇔\frac{13x +900-18x}{100\times50} =\frac{14}{100}

⇔- 5x= 700 - 900

⇔5x = 200

⇔x = 40 gram

Therefore he took 40 gram of 1^{st} type solution and (50 -40)gram = 10 gram of 2^{nd} type solution.
