Response:

The probability that a student has a pet, given they do not have any siblings is:

Option: D ( 60%)

Step-by-step breakdown:

Let A represent the situation where a student lacks a sibling.

Let B signify the occurrence that a student has a pet.

Consequently, A∩B refers to the event in which a student is without siblings but possesses a pet.

Let P denote the chance of an event happening.

We need to determine:

P(B|A)

From our knowledge:

$P(B|A)=\dfrac{P(A\bigcap B)}{P(A)}$

From the data provided:

P(A)=0.25

and P(A∩B)=0.15

Thus,

$P(B|A)=\dfrac{0.15}{0.25}\\\\P(B|A)=\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\P(B|A)=0.6$

which expressed as a percentage is:

$0.6\times 100=60\%$

Therefore, the probability is:

60%

Each year Lizzie's school purchases student agenda books, which are sold in the schooTstore. This year, the school purchased 350

AnnZ [9099]

The outcome is $7.54 for each book.

By adding 1137.5 and 1500, you obtain 2637.5.
Then, dividing 2637.5 by 350 gives 7.54.

Verifying the result
350 multiplied by 7.54 equals $2639.

Subtracting $1137.5 from $2639 results in $1501.5 (profit).

The quotient of 9 3/4 and 5/8

AnnZ [9099]

Answer:

15.6

Step-by-step explanation:

$9\frac{3}{4} = \frac{39}{4}$
Insert 39/4: 39/4 ÷ 5/8
39/4 ÷ 5/8 = 39/4 × 8/5
39/4 × 8/5 = 312/20
$\frac{312}{20} = 15.6$

Explain how you can determine the number of real number solutions of a system of equations in which one equation is linear and t

babunello [8412]

Answer:

To find the number of genuine solutions for a system of equations consisting of a linear equation and a quadratic equation

1) With two variables, say x and y, rearrange the linear equation to express y, then substitute this y in the quadratic equation

After that, simplify the resulting equation and determine the number of real roots utilizing the quadratic formula, $x = \dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a\cdot c}}{2\cdot a}$ for equations of the type 0 = a·x² - b·x + c.

When b² exceeds 4·a·c, two real solutions emerge; if b² equals 4·a·c, there will be a single solution.

Drag and drop an answer to each box to correctly complete the explanation for deriving the formula for the volume of a sphere.

lawyer [9240]

The formula for the volume of a sphere can be derived as follows. We will approach this through calculus, utilizing the concept of a solid of revolution; this is a three-dimensional shape formed by rotating a two-dimensional curve around a straight line (the axis of revolution) that lies within the same plane. From calculus, we know that we will generate a shape by rotating the specified circumference. Next, we isolate y and utilize certain limits for this integral.

A gazebo is being built near a nature trail. An equation of the line representing the nature trail is y = 13x−4. Each unit in th

PIT_PIT [9117]

Respuesta:

126 pies

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que:

Ecuación de la línea que representa el sendero de naturaleza:

y = 13x - 4

Distancia del gazebo respecto al sendero de naturaleza:

Cada unidad en el plano de coordenadas = 10 pies

Por lo tanto,

y = 13(10) - 4

y = 130 - 4

y = 126 pies
