Answer:

Option E

Step-by-step explanation:

The volunteers held spider for 15 minutes

90% of participants confessed that they were cured from the fear of spider

The available statement describes the 90% of the participants claimed they were cured of their fear of spiders. The statement also states that the participants held spider for 15 minutes only. These two parameters are only combined in one answer, option E which captures both. Therefore, we can rightfully conclude that the results can be generalized to the population of all people who have a fear of spiders.

For this case we have the following complex number:
 1 + i
 Its equivalent pair is given by:
 root (2) * (cos (pi / 4) + i * sin (pi / 4))
 Rewriting we have:
 root (2) * (root (2) / 2 + i * (root (2) / 2))
 (2/2 + i * (2/2))
 (1 + i)
 Answer:

NemiM [27]

Quantity of dolls and horses are 10 and 5 respectively .

Selling prices of dolls and horses are $7 and $ 9 respectively .

And the commission on them are $2 and $ 3 respectively .

So net price = 10*(7-2) + 5(9-3) = 10+5 + 5*6 = 50+30 = 80

So the total value of the merchandise using net realizable value is $ 80. Therefore out of the given options, correct option is the last option .

A marble is selected at random from a jar containing 3 red​ marbles, 4 yellow​ marbles, and 6 green marbles. What is the probabi
alexgriva [62]

Answer:  a) \dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of red marbles = 3

Number of yellow marbles = 4

Number of green marbles = 6

Total number of marbles = 3 +4 +6 = 13

​a) the marble is​ red? ​

Probability of getting a red marble = \dfrac{3}{13}

b) the marble is not​ yellow?

Probability of not getting yellow = \dfrac{3+6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}

​c) the marble is either red or ​green?

Probability of getting either red or green = P(red) + P(green) =\dfrac{3}{13}+\dfrac{6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}

d) the marble is neither red nor ​green?

Probability of getting neither red nor green = P(getting yellow) = \dfrac{4}{13}

Hence, a) \dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}
