(c) The probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list is 0.9185.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Of the entering class at a college, 71% attended public high school, 21% attended private high school, and 8% were home schooled. Of those who attended public high school, 16% made the Dean's list, 19% of those who attended private high school made the Dean's list, and 15% of those who were home schooled made the Dean's list.

a) Find the probability that the student made the Dean's list.

b) Find the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list.

c) Find the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list.

Solution:

Denote the events as follows:

A = a student attended public high school

B = a student attended private high school

C = a student was home schooled

D = a student made the Dean's list

The provided information is as follows:

P (A) = 0.71

P (B) = 0.21

P (C) = 0.08

P (D|A) = 0.16

P (D|B) = 0.19

P (D|C) = 0.15

(a)

The law of total probability states that:

[tex]P(X)=\sum\limits_{i} P(X|Y_{i})\cdot P(Y_{i})[/tex]

Compute the probability that the student made the​ Dean's list as follows:

[tex]P(D)=P(D|A)P(A)+P(D|B)P(B)+P(D|C)P(C)[/tex]

         [tex]=(0.16\times 0.71)+(0.19\times 0.21)+(0.15\times 0.08)\\=0.1136+0.0399+0.012\\=0.1655[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the student made the​ Dean's list is 0.1655.

(b)

Compute the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list as follows:

[tex]P(B|D)=\frac{P(D|B)P(B)}{P(D)}[/tex]

             [tex]=\frac{0.21\times 0.19}{0.1655}\\\\=0.2410876\\\\\approx 0.2411[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list is 0.2411.

(c)

Compute the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list as follows:

[tex]P(C^{c}|D^{c})=1-P(C|D^{c})[/tex]

               [tex]=1-\frac{P(D^{c}|C)P(C)}{P(D^{c})}\\\\=1-\frac{(1-P(D|C))\times P(C)}{1-P(D)}\\\\=1-\frac{(1-0.15)\times 0.08}{(1-0.1655)}\\\\=1-0.0815\\\\=0.9185[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list is 0.9185.

A. The parents of a baby wish to establish a college fund for their child. They deposit
$100 every month into an account for 18 years. The money earns 6 3/8% interest
compounded monthly. Find the future value of this account.

Answers

Answer:

FV= $38,735.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Monthly deposit= $100

Number of periods= 18*12= 216 months

The interest rate is confusing. I will assume an interest rate of 6%. If it is not correct, just change it in the formula.

Monthly interest rate= 0.06/12= 0.005

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {100*[(1.005^216) - 1]} / 0.005

FV= $38,735.32

Solve by Elimination:
4x + 8y = 20
-4x + 2y = 10
(-1,3)
(3,4)
(3,-1)
(4,3)

Answers

Answer:

(-1,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Elimination makes solving for the system of equations much easier if it is the faster route. In this case, it is already done for you, and no multiplication is required.

First, we want to eliminate the x values completely because they are opposites and therefore cancel out. Next, you want to add the y-values and sum (20 and 10) so that you get the new equation [tex]10y=30[/tex]. To isolate you need to divide by 10 on each side which will give you [tex]y=3[/tex].

Now that you have your y-value, you can plug in your value to either of the equations and find what x is. I will use the equation 4x + 8y = 20 to solve for x. We first want to substitute in our y-value so that we get [tex]4x+8(3)=20[/tex] which is simplified to [tex]4x+24=20[/tex] now subtract by 24 on both sides to get 4x by itself to get [tex]4x=-4[/tex]. Lastly, isolate x by dividing by 4 on each side to get [tex]x=-1[/tex]

From house to his job as a janitor, you can walk in a straight line. In the afternoon he has to stop twice on his way home. His first stop is at the bodega to get something to eat. The bodega is exactly halfway between his house and the school. The second stop will be at OWL Barbershop for his haircut. The OWL Barbershop location partitions the way from Wilfred’s house and job in the ratio 3:1. The coordinates of his house are H (-3, -4) and his job coordinates are J(5, 0). Please use B to represent the Bodega and O to represent OWL Barbershop.

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of Bodega is B(1,-2)

The coordinates of OWL Barbershop is O(3,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of House H = (-3,-4)

Coordinates of Job J= (5,0)

His first stop is at the bodega to get something to eat. The bodega is exactly halfway between his house and the school.

Let B to represent the Bodega

Now to find coordinates of Bodega we will use use mid point formula since  bodega is exactly halfway between his house and the school.

[tex]x=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , y = \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\\(x_1,y_1)=(-3,-4)\\(x_2,y_2)=(5,0)\\x=\frac{-3+5}{2} , y = \frac{-4+0}{2}\\x=1, y = -2[/tex]

So, The coordinates of Bodega is B(1,-2)

Now we are given that The OWL Barbershop location partitions the way from Wilfred’s house and job in the ratio 3:1.

Le O to represent OWL Barbershop.

We will use section formula

[tex]x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n} , y =\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\\(x_1,y_1)=(-3,-4)\\(x_2,y_2)=(5,0)\\m:n=3:1\\x=\frac{3(5)+1(-3)}{3+1} , y =\frac{3(0)+1(-4)}{3+1}\\x=3,y=-1[/tex]

So, The coordinates of OWL Barbershop is O(3,-1)

Two trees standing side by side in the sunlight one is 50 feet tall and the other is 20 feet tall if the taller tree casts a 18-foot shadow, what is the length in feet of the shadow of the shorter tree

Answers

Given:

Length of taller tree = 50 feet

Length of shorter tree = 20 feet

Length of shadow of taller tree = 18 feet

To find:

The length of shadow of shorter tree.

Solution:

Since, two trees standing side by side in the sunlight, therefore the length of trees are proportional to their shadows.

Let the length of shadow of shorter tree be x feet.

Using the given information, we get

[tex]\dfrac{50}{18}=\dfrac{20}{x}[/tex]

By cross multiplication, we get

[tex]50\times x=20\times 18[/tex]

[tex]50x=360[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{360}{50}[/tex]

[tex]x=7.2[/tex]

Therefore, the length of shadow of shorter tree is 7.2 feet.

If LN = 6x - 5, LM = x + 7, and MN = 3x + 20, find MN.
A.68
B.16
C.23
D.18

Answers

Answer : The correct option is (A) 68.

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that:

LN = 6x - 5

LM = x + 7

MN = 3x + 20

Now we have to determine the value of MN.

According to the question:

LN = LM + MN

Now putting all the given values in this expression, we get:

6x - 5 = (x + 7) + (3x + 20)

6x - 5 = 4x + 27

6x - 4x = 27 + 5

2x = 32

x = 16

The value of MN = 3x + 20 = 3(16) + 20 = 48 + 20 = 68

Therefore, the value of MN is 68.

While the names may change from one organizationto the next, the basic definition remains the same: traveling to natural areas10 around the world, experiencing and learning about the region, and whilethere, helping to preserve the environment and sustain the well-being of thelocal residents. Tourists adversely affect the destinations they visit when they are notmindful of the impact of their actions. They may leave trash in their wake,overlook local merchants and vendors in favor of flashy chain stores andrestaurants, and even tromp all over important historical monuments, ancientsites, and religious icons. Their heavy foot traffic may interfere with thegrowth patterns of local species of flowers, bushes, and trees. Those whoveer off established hiking trails may affect the habitats and development of20 indigenous animals and plants. In fact, studies show that just the presence oftiny microorganisms, which visitors may bring with them on their clothes,have been known to compromise the ecosystems of natural sites popular withtourists.Ecotourism focuses on ensuring these negative effects do not occur.25 The tenets of this style of travel include: Building respect for native peoples and cultures Reducing the impacts of visitors on cultural locations Participating in activities that benefit the local flora and fauna Improving awareness of the local environment30 Respecting the rights, values, beliefs, and customs of the communityThe Origins of Ecotourism Sustainable travel is not a new ideait originated with the SierraClub's Outings program more than a century ago. These annual expeditionswere designed to take hikers into the backcountry of the Sierra Nevadamountains to find and admire natural wondersand then be inspired to35 actively work to preserve them. In the early 1980s, the term ecotourism"was officially coined, and since then, it has become an increasingly popularchoice for travelers. A Positive Impact Nowadays, some people argue that ecotourism is not a perfectsolution to the potentially negative effects of travel. After all, ecotourism still40 has some environmental impact, and it may draw more people to fragile areasthan traditional tourism would. However, as long as mankind has a thirst fortravel, ecotourism will remain the most responsible option. Travel is one ofthe great human experiencesthat people will travel is a fait accompli, sothe only question is whether it will be done in a sustainable way.45 Ecotourism also brings numerous benefits to the world at large.Sustainable travel piques tourists' interests in distant corners of the planet andraises awareness of the cultures and traditions of the people who live there.Individuals who have taken part in ecotourism may be more environmentallyconscious back home. Additionally, this form of travel provides tangible50 benefits to the areas visited. Tourists can assist with scientific research, suchas mapping biodiversity by determining the number of plant and animalspecies in a location. In other expeditions, tourists may help with excavatingarchaeological sites.
