b. P(Republican or term expires in 2013)
c. P(Republican given term expires in 2017)
2017
The answers to all the subparts are:
(A) P(Democrat and term expires in 2015) = 20/78(B) P(Republican or term expires in 2013) = 57/78(C) P(Republican given term expires in 2017) = 13/14(D) The two events are not independent.A table is drawn according to the given information.
(Refer to the table below)
So,
let d be the event that the person is a Democrat.let r be the event that the person is republican.let 2013 be the event that the person retires 2013.let 2015 be the event that the person retires 2015.let 2017 be the event that the person retires in 2017.From the table:
p(d) = 42 / 78 because there are 42 democrats out of a total of 78 senators who retired in either 2013 or 2015 or 2017.p(r) = 36 / 78 because there are 36 republicans out of a total of 78 senators who retired in either 2013 or 2015 or 2017.p(2013) = 29 because there are 29 senators who retired in 2013 out of a total of 78 senators who retired in all 3 yearsp(2015) = 35 because there are 35 senators who retired in 2015 out of a total of 78 senators who retired in all 3 years.p(2017) = 14 because there are 14 senators who retired in 2017 out of a total of 78 senators who retired in all 3 years.Then,
Our universe is 78 senators who retired in all 3 years (2013, 2015, 2017).
42 are democrats and 36 are republicans.29 retired in 2013 and 35 retired in 2015 and 14 retired in 2017.(A) From the table, we can see that there are 20 democrats who retired in 2015.
p(d and 2015) = 20/78.(B) This one is asking for p(r or 2013)
The formula to use here is p(r or 2013) = p(r) + p(2013) - p(r and 2013).
From the table, we can see that:
p(r) = 36/78p(2013) = 29/78p(r and 2013) = 8So, p(r or 2013) is equal to p(r) + p(2013) - p(r and 2013) which is equal to 36/78 + 29/78 - 8/78 = 57/78.
(C) This is one is asking for p(r given 2017).
The formula to use here is p(r given 2017) = p(r and 2017) / p(2017).
From the table, you can see that:
p(2017) = 14/78p(r and 2017) = 13/78So, p(r given 2017) = p(r and 2017) / p(2017) = (13/78) / (14/78) = 13/14.
(D) if they were independent, then p(r and 2017) would be equal to p(r) * p(2017).
Therefore p(r given 2017) would be equal to p(r and 2017) / p(2017) which would be equal to p(r) * p(2017) / p(2017) which would be equal to p(r).From the table, you can see that p(r) = 36/78.From the table, you can see that p(r and 2017) = 13/78) and p(2017) = 14/78.Therefore p(r given 2017) = p(r and 2017) / p(2017) = (13/78) / (14/78) which is equal to 13/14 which is not equal to p(r) = 36/78Therefore the two events are not independent.Therefore, the answers to all the subparts are:
(A) P(Democrat and term expires in 2015) = 20/78(B) P(Republican or term expires in 2013) = 57/78(C) P(Republican given term expires in 2017) = 13/14(D) The two events are not independent.Know more about the random selection here:

Explain how to find 27% of 16 using multiplication by
decimal. Then explain how to use estimation to chec
your answer.
Answer:
4.32
Step-by-step explanation:
You can multiply 16 by 0.27 to get the answer.
16*0.27=4.32
You can check your work with estimation because 27% is about 1/4 of the number, and just by looking at the number, 4 is 1/4 of the number.
Answer:
4.32
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert 27% to the equivalent decimal 0.27. Multiply 16 by 0.27 to get 4.32. Use estimation to check the answer by choosing the friendly percent 25%. 25% of 16 is equal to 16 ÷ 4 = 4. The answer is reasonable.

In my bingo game you have to match 3 balls to win.
20 balls are drawn from a 60 ball total.
I’m able to deduce that I have a 1 / 34,220 chance of winning.
However, I win more like 1 / 100 attempts.
Please identify where my maths is going wrong:
My maths:
For the first ball there are 60 options.
For the second ball there are 59 options.
For the third ball there are 58 options.
I need to multiply these 3 options:
60 x 59 x 58 = 205,320
1 / 205,320.
However, the order of the numbers doesn’t matter, so we’ll exclude permutations from the total combinations:
Permutations = 3! = 3x2 = 6
205,320 / 6 = 34220
So to win a this game I have a 1 / 34,220 chance.
Why then am I winning 1/100 attempts? Something is very wrong.
Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that you are going to win approximately 3.33% of the time. The reason for the difference is that you considered that only 3 balls would be drawn, and not 20.
What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?The formula is:
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
The parameters are:
x is the number of successes.N is the size of the population.n is the size of the sample.k is the total number of desired outcomes.For this problem, the parameters are given as follows;
N = 60, k = 3, n = 20.
You win if you have the 3 correct balls, hence the probability is P(X = 3), found as follows:
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = h(3,60,20,3) = \frac{C_{3,3}C_{60,20}}{C_{60,20}} = 0.0333[/tex]

5. Sasha is signing her daughter up for dance classes. There is a one-time
costume fee of $35 and each dass costs $15. Sasha paid a total of $155.
how many classes did she sign up for?
Answer:
She paid for 8 classes
Step-by-step explanation:
Take away $35 from $155 because it was a one time custom fitting. And they’re asking for how many classes. So 35-155=120. Now you didvide 15 (charge per class) by 120 (total for all classes). And your answer is 8 classes. Hope this helped :)
Given x=1/2 and y=-x, what is the value of x-y
Answer:1
Step-by-step explanation:x=1/2 , y =-1/2
X-y = 1/2-(-1/2)=1
Answer:
x-y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Question: Given x = 1/2 and y = -x, what is the value of x - y?
Step-by-step:
We know that x = 1/2 and y = -x but we need to find out what -x is equal to.
To find the value of -x, we need to multiple -1 on both sides of the equation: x = 1/2
(You can think of it like -1 acts like an invisible number)
x*-1 = 1/2*-1 which is -x = -1/2
Since y is equal to -x, y = -1/2
We need to find x - y which is 1/2 - (-1/2)
Because the negative and subtraction signs cancel out, we add instead. The equation becomes 1/2 + 1/2
One half + half = 1
Therefore, x-y = 1
A new process for producing a type of novolac resin is supposed to have a mean cycle time of 3.5 hours per batch. Six batches are produced, and their cycle times, in hours, were 3.45 3.47 3.57 3.52 3.40 3.62. Can you conclude that the mean cycle time is greater than 3.5 hours
Answer:
Yes, the mean cycle time is greater than 3.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us try to calculate the mean cycle time here. Consider the given cycle times. To obtain the mean cycle time, we have.
3.45 + 3.47 + 3.57 + 3.52 + 3.40 + 3.62/6 = 3.505 hours
Hence the difference 3.505 -3.5 = 0.005
Hence mean cycle time is greater than 3.5 by 0.005
The following is a listing of the amount of sugar in six popular snacks found on a high school campus:
34g 34g 42g 50g 52g 58g
What is the median?
Answer:
The median is 46 g
Step-by-step explanation:
The median of a data set is the middle value. Since there are six snacks, which is an even number, you can't pick out a single middle value. Instead, to get the middle value you have to add the middle 2 numbers together and then divide them by 2 for the median.
Line g is dilated by a scale factor of 3 from the origin to create line g'. Where are points E' and F' located after dilation, and how are lines g and g' related? coordinate plane with point E at negative 4 comma 0 and point F at 0 comma 2, line g intersects points E and F The locations of E' and F' are E' (−4, 0) and F' (0, 2), and lines g and g' are the same line. The locations of E' and F' are E' (−2, 0) and F' (0, 1), and lines g and g' intersect at point F. The locations of E' and F' are E' (−1, 0) and F' (0, 0), and lines g and g' are not related. The locations of E' and F' are E' (−12, 0) and F' (0, 6), and lines g and g' are parallel.
Dilation involves changing the size of a shape.
The true statement is that the locations of E' and F' are E' (−12, 0) and F' (0, 6), and lines g and g' are parallel.
The given parameters are:
[tex]k =3[/tex] --- the scale factor
[tex]E = (-4,0)[/tex]
[tex]F =(0,2)[/tex]
Multiply the coordinates of point E and F by the scale factor (k), to determine the new coordinates of E and F.
[tex]E' = E \times k[/tex]
[tex]E' = (-4,0) \times 3[/tex]
[tex]E' = (-12,0)[/tex]
[tex]F' = F \times k[/tex]
[tex]F' = (0,2) \times 3[/tex]
[tex]F' = (0,6)[/tex]
Given that line g is represented by points E and F; line g' would be represented by points E' and F'
So, both lines would be parallel.
Hence, the true option is (d)
