In a state assembly, 35% of the legislators are Democrats, and the other 65% are Republicans. 70% of the Democrats favor raising sales tax, while only 40% of the Republicans favor the increase. If a legislator is selected at random from this group, what is the probability that they favor raising sales tax? Give your answer as a percentage rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Probability of selecting a legislator who favors rising sales tax is 0.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Percentage of legislators that are democrats = 0.35

Percentage of legislators that are Republicans = 0.70

All the democrats favor raise in sales tax , so their probability is 1

and only 40% of the Republicans favor raise in sales tax.

Probability of selecting a legislator who favors rising sales tax is

(0.35*1)+(0.70*0.40)

= 0.63

Each card in a set of cards has one of the letters from the word MATHEMATICS. The cards are shuffled. Suppose you draw a card from the set of cards, record the letter, return the card to the set, and shuffle the cards. You repeat this experiment 22 times. Would you expect the experimental probability of drawing a vowel to be the same as the theoretical probability? YES or NO and Explain you answer

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretical probability is the expected probability of anything. For example we expect a probability of 1/6 for each number when we roll a die .

Experimental Probability is the one that is obtained by the actual experimenting of rolling the die.

The theoretical probability is the example of perfect probability and experimental probability  is the example of actual occurrence.

Their formulas are

Theoretical Probability = number of possible outcomes/ total number of possible outcomes

Experimental Probability =  number of favorable outcomes/ total number of actual outcomes

If we a roll a fair die several times we may get 2 repeated number of times or any other number that is on the die.

So the experimental probability is bit different from the theoretical probability.

Now if the cards are shuffled and the experiment is repeated 22 times

experimental probability of drawing a vowel  would not  be the same as the theoretical probability because n is small.

If n→1000 or more

n→∞

According to K. Pearson or Buffon when n tends to infinity the  theoretical probability becomes equal to experimental probability.

They experimented this on a coin and put forward their results.

Answer: b) 68%

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross margin is used to calculate the amount left of revenue after the costs of goods sold is accounted for.

The formula is:

PLEASE HELP!

Answers

y= 9/4x + 5
y = 9/4(2) + 5
y = 9.5
y= between 9-10 patients, round down to 9

The function that represents the number of patients she sees is; y = 9/4x + 5 and number of patients after 2 hours is 9 patients

How to write Functions?

We are given;

Number of patients the dental hygeinist cleans before lunch = 5

Average number that she cleans after lunch = 9 patients in 4 hours

Thus, number of patients per hour is 9/4

The formula for slope intercept form is;

y = mx + c

Thus, equation to represent the situation in the question is;

y = 9/4x + 5

At 2 hours after lunch, number of patients is;

y = 9/4(2) + 5

y = 9.5

Approximately 9 patients

3x - 30 = 2(x + 10)

Mrs. McClure's famous peanut butter cookies call for 1 cup of peanut butter for every 1 2 of a cup of oil. Today, she wants to make a huge batch with 1 cup of oil. How much peanut butter should she use?

Answers

Answer:

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil = 2 cup of butter

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of butter need for 1/2 cup of oil = 1 cup

Find:

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil

Computation:

Amount of butter need for 1/2 cup of oil = 1 cup

1 cup butter = 1/2 cup oil

So,

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil = 1 / [1/2]

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil = 1 / [0.5]

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil = 2 cup of butter

x = 2

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = -2, then 2y = -2 - 2x

3x - 2y = 12, then 2y = 3x - 12

so:

-2 - 2x = 3x - 12

add 2x and 12 to each side of the equation:

5x = 10

divide both sides by 5:

x = 2

2y = 3(2) - 12

2y = -6

divide both sides by 2:

y = -3

=695 m³

Answer:

695 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

With this object, there are three rectangular prisms. The equation to find the volume of them is L*W*H.

So, with the small one in the front, the sides are 8, 4, and 5, so do:

8*4*5 ---> 160

Next, with long middle one, the sides are 5, 5, and 15, so do:

5*5*15 --->375

Then, with small one in the back, 8, 4, and 5 again, so do:

8*4*5 ---> 160

To finish it off, add them all together.

160 + 375 + 160 = 695 m^3

Brennan is wrapping a birthday present for his sister. He starts with 2 yards of ribbon. Then, he cuts off 9 inches to decorate the present. How many inches of ribbon does he have left now?

Answers

Answer:

63 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Brennan is wrapping a birthday present for his sister. He starts with 2 yards of ribbon.

Step 1

We convert from yards to inches

1 yard = 36 inches

2 yards = x

Cross Multiply

x = 2 × 36 inches

x = 72 inches

Step 2

Then, he cuts off 9 inches to decorate the present.

The number of inches of ribbon he has left now is calculated as:

72 inches - 9 inches

= 63 inches

Therefore, he has 63 inches of ribbon left

A competitive diver dives from a 33-foot high diving board. The height of the diver in feet after 't' seconds is given by u(t) = −16t^2 + 4t + 33. At the moment the diver begins her dive, another diver begins climbing the diving board ladder at a rate of 2 feet per second. At what height above the pool deck do the two divers pass each other? Please answer it quickly, it's for my homework.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t = 0.375s[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]h(t) = -16t^2 + 4t + 33[/tex] --- driver 1

[tex]Rate = 2ft/s[/tex] -- driver 2

[tex]height = 33ft[/tex]

Required

The time they passed each other

First, we determine the function of driver 2.

We have that:

[tex]Rate = 2ft/s[/tex] and [tex]height = 33ft[/tex]

So, the function is:

[tex]h_2(t) = Height - Rate * t[/tex]

[tex]h_2(t) = 33 - 2t[/tex]

The time they drive pass each other is calculated as:

[tex]h(t) = h_2(t)[/tex]

[tex]-16t^2 + 4t + 33= 33 - 2t[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]-16t^2 + 4t + 2t= 33 - 33[/tex]

[tex]-16t^2 + 6t= 0[/tex]

Divide through by 2t

[tex]-8t + 3= 0[/tex]

Solve for -8t

[tex]-8t = -3[/tex]

Solve for t

[tex]t = \frac{-3}{-8}[/tex]

[tex]t = 0.375s[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given measure of the angles formed are;

m∠AED = 48°, m[tex]\widehat{AG}[/tex] = 175°

According to circle theorem, the angle formed by a chord and a tangent of a circle is given by half of the measure of the arc intercepted by the chord in the direction of the angle;

Therefore;

m∠AED = (1/2) × m[tex]\widehat{ABE}[/tex]  = 48°

∴ m[tex]\widehat{ABE}[/tex] = 2 × 48° = 96°

m∠AEF = (1/2) × m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex]

m[tex]\widehat{ABE}[/tex] + m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex] = 360° (angle round a circle)

∴ m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex] = 360° - m[tex]\widehat{ABE}[/tex] = 360° - 96° = 264°

m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex] = m[tex]\widehat{AG}[/tex] + m[tex]\widehat{EG}[/tex]

∴ m[tex]\widehat{EG}[/tex] = m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex] - m[tex]\widehat{AG}[/tex] = 264° - 175° = 89°

m[tex]\widehat{EG}[/tex] = 89°.
