A university organization shows that 108 of the university's 253 assistant professors were women, along with 97 of the 301 associate professors and 78 of the 350 full professors. (a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen university professor (of any rank) is a woman

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]Probability = 0.3131[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Determine the probability of selecting a woman

The given data can be represented to show women distribution as:

-------------------------------------- Women ------------------- Total

Assistant Professors ----------- 108 ----------------------253

Associate Professors ---------97 -------------------------301

Full Professors -----------------78---------------------------350

First, we calculate the number of women

[tex]Women = 108 + 97 + 78[/tex]

[tex]Women = 283[/tex]

Next, we calculate the total number of professors

[tex]Professors = 253 + 301 + 350[/tex]

[tex]Professors = 904[/tex]

Probability of selecting women is then calculated as:

[tex]Probability = \frac{Women}{Professors}[/tex]

[tex]Probability = \frac{283}{904}[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 0.31305309734[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 0.3131[/tex] -- (approximated)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

abc=80, abm= 100

acb= 40, acn= 140

angle a = 60

x=80, y=40

Answer:

x = 80° y = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC = 80°  ACB = 40°

ABC+ACB+A = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle = 180°)

80+40+A = 180°

A = 60°  (sum of angles in a triangle = 180°)

X = 80° (ALTERNATE ANGLES, angles x is alternate to angle ABC = 80° )

y = 40°  (alternate angles, angle y is alternate to angle ACB = 40°)

to cross-check : sum of angles on a straight line = 180°  

x+ y + A = 180sum of angles on a straight line = 180°

80+40+60 = 180°

ABM = 100°  = (sum of angles on a straight line = 180°)

80° + 100°  = 180°

ACN = 140° (sum of angles on a straight line = 180°)

40° + 140° = 180°

1. Their ages are:

Steve's age = 18

Anne's age = 8

2. Their ages are:

Max's age = 17

Bert's age = 11

3. Their ages are:

Sury's age = 19

Billy's age = 9

4. Their ages are:

The man's age = 30

His son's age = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We make the assumption that:

S = Steve's age

A = Anne's age

In four years, we are going to have:

S + 4 = (A + 4)2 - 2 = 2A + 8 - 2

S + 4 = 2A + 6 .................. (1)

Three years ago, we had:

S - 3 = (A - 3)3

S - 3 = 3A - 9

S = 3A - 9 + 3

S = 3A – 6 …………. (2)

Substitute S from (2) into (1) and solve for A, we have:

3A – 6 + 4 = 2A + 6

3A – 2A = 6 + 6 – 4

A = 8

Substitute A = 8 into (3), we have:

S = (3 * 8) – 6 = 24 – 6

S = 18

Therefore, we have:

Steve's age = 18

Anne's age = 8.

2. We make the assumption that:

M = Max's age

B = Bert's age

Five years ago, we had:

M - 5 = (B - 5)2

M - 5 = 2B - 10 .......................... (3)

A year from now, it will be:

(M + 1) + (B + 1) = 30

M + 1 + B + 1 = 30

M + B + 2 = 30

M = 30 – 2 – B

M = 28 – B …………………… (4)

Substitute M from (4) into (3) and solve for B, we have:

28 – B – 5 = 2B – 10

28 – 5 + 10 = 2B + B

33 = 3B

B = 33 / 3

B = 11

If we substitute B = 11 into equation (4), we will have:

M = 28 – 11

M = 17

Therefore, their ages are:

Max's age = 17

Bert's age = 11.

3. We make the assumption that:

S = Sury's age

B = Billy's age

Now, we have:

S = B + 10 ................................ (5)

Next year, it will be:

S + 1 = (B + 1)2

S + 1 = 2B + 2 .......................... (6)

Substituting S from equation (5) into equation (6) and solve for B, we will have:

B + 10 + 1 = 2B + 2

10 + 1 – 2 = 2B – B

B = 9

Substituting B = 9 into equation (5), we have:

S = 9 + 10

S = 19

Therefore, their ages are:

Sury's age = 19

Billy's age = 9.

4. We make the assumption that:

M = The man's age

S = His son's age

Therefore, now, we have:

M = 3S ................................... (7)

Five years ago, we had:

M - 5 = (S - 5)5

M - 5 = 5S - 25 ................ (8)

Substituting M = 3S from (7) into (8) and solve for S, we have:

3S - 5 = 5S – 25

3S – 5S = - 25 + 5

-2S = - 20

S = -20 / -2

S = 10

Substituting S = 10 into equation (7), we have:

M = 3 * 10 = 30

Therefore, their ages are:

The man's age = 30

His son's age = 10

Answers

Answer:

y = 98

z = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

in the picture, y and 82 are supplementary angles because the are same side interior angles. This means that we can create this equation:

y = 180 - 82

we get y = 98

<Y and <4z + 14 are vertical angles, so we can also say that they are equal to each other. So we can create this equation:

4z + 14 = 98

subtract 14 from both sides:

4z = 84

divide both side by 4 to find z:

z = 21

Answer:

y = 82

z  = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

You can get y almost immediately.

82 and y are supplementary. Interior angles on the same side of the transversal = 180

82 + y = 180              Subtract 82 from both sides

y = 180 - 82

y = 98

y and 4z + 14 are equal.

y = 4z + 14                Substitute for y    

98 = 4z  +  14           Subtract 14 from both sides.

98-14 = 4z

84 = 4z                     Divide by 4

84/4 = 4z/4

21 = z

MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER Jack has decided to advertise the sale of his car by placing flyers in the student union and the dining hall of the college. He estimates that there is a probability of 0.4 that a potential buyer will read the advertisement and that, if it is read, the probability that the reader will buy his car will be 0.1. Using these estimates, find the probability that a potential buyer will read the ad and will buy Jack's car.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a potential buyer will read the advert and will buy Jack's car is 0.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimate 1:  There's a 0.4 probability that a potential buyer will read the advert.

Estimate 2:  There's a 0.1 probability that whoever reads the advert will buy his car.

- As you can see, the probability of success of this event decreases; from the point of Jack placing an advert, to the point of someone purchasing his car.

- That someone reads the advert does not mean that he or she would be interested in or capable of purchasing the car.

- That someone has the capacity to buy the car (potential buyer) does not mean they'll eventually buy it.

- So altogether, there is a low probability of each reader purchasing the car, and that's 0.1

In the calculation of probability, "and" represents multiplication. Hence,

0.4 × 0.1  = 0.04

Answer:

We start with 550 pieces of candy.

We know that for each kid that comes, the total number of candy will be reduced in 5 units.

Then if there are x children that came to take candy, the total number of candy left will be:

f(x) = 550 - 5*x

That is the function that represents this situation.

Now we want to find the zero of this function, this will be the value of x such that f(x) = 0.

So we only need to solve the equation:

f(x) = 0 = 550 - 5*x

      5*x = 550

         x = 550/5 = 110

The x-intercept will be (110, 0)

In this particular case, the information on the zero represents the number number of kids that must come and take candy in order to have no more pieces left in the bowl.

A1 is 64° more than A2, so A1 + 64 = A2
Input that into the equation.
A1 + A1 + 64= 180
2A1 = 116
A2 = 58
A1 = 58+64, 122

There is a cool trick you can do. Lets take 28 and square it.

First you round the number up. 28 rounded is 30. You rounded up by 2 (30-28=2) so you minus 2 from 28.

You are left with these two numbers, 26 and 30. Add a zero to the 26.

You now have 260 and 3 (you remove 0 on the 30 since you added it to the 26)

Then you multiply by 3.

260x3=780

Then you add the square of the number you rounded up too, which is 2.

You are left with this equation.

(2^2)+780= 784

28x28=784.

This works for numbers below 100 and integers

The formula for the lateral area of a right cone is LA = πrs, where r is the radius of the base and s is the slant height of the cone. Which are equivalent equations? Select two correct answers.

a) s = s equals StartFraction L A Over pi r EndFraction.

b) s = s equals StartFraction pi r Over L A EndFraction.

c) s = LAr

d) r = r equals StartFraction L A Over pi s EndFraction.

e) r = LAs

Answer:

a) s equals StartFraction L A Over pi r EndFraction.

d) r = r equals StartFraction L A Over pi s EndFraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Lateral Surface Area of a right cone is given in the question as:

LA = πrs

Where

r is the radius of the base and s is the slant height of the cone.

From the options given,

We can make s the subject of the formula.

Hence:

Making s the subject of the formula

LA = πrs

Divide both sides by πr

s = LA/πr

Hence: Option a) s equals StartFraction L A Over pi r EndFraction. Is correct.

Step 2

Making r the subject of the Formula

LA = πrs

Divide both sides by πs

r = LA/πs

Hence: Option d) r equals StartFraction L A Over pi s EndFraction. Is correct.
