Response:

sample response: Sari made a reasonable guess for the task. However, it was incorrect for her to claim that her estimate was just above the actual figure. The approximated dividend, 120, is marginally under 120.76, while the rounded divisor, 10, is a bit more than 9.9, leading to an estimate that would be lower than the true quotient.

Detailed explanation:

I completed the practice test on edge:>

Response:

Indeed, her projection exceeds the true answer. 120.78 divided by 9.9 equals 12.2. Given that 12.2 (the actual result) is more than her estimate of 12, she is correct.

Detailed explanation:

Zina [12379]

Response:

a. 0.76

b. 0.23

c. 0.5

d. p(B/A) signifies the likelihood that a student with a visa card also possesses a MasterCard.

p(A/B) indicates the probability that a student with a MasterCard also has a visa card.

e. 0.35

f. 0.31

Detailed explanation:

a. p(AUBUC) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) - P(AnB) - P(AnC) - P(BnC) + P(AnBnC)

        = 0.6 + 0.4 + 0.2 - 0.3 - 0.11 - 0.1 + 0.07 = 0.76

b. P(AnBnC') = P(AnB) - P(AnBnC)

        = 0.3 - 0.07 = 0.23

c. P(B/A) = P(AnB)/P(A)

        = 0.3/0.6 = 0.5

e. P((AnB)/C) = P((AnB)nC)/P(C)

        = P(AnBnC)/P(C)

        = 0.07/0.2 = 0.35

f. P((AUB)/C) = P((AUB)nC)/P(C)

        = (P(AnC) U P(BnC))/P(C)

        = (0.11 + 0.1)/0.2

        = 0.21/0.2 = 0.31
