A recent survey shows that the probability of a college student drinking alcohol is 0.6. Further, given that the student is over 21 years old, the probability of drinking alcohol is 0.8. It is also known that 30% of the college students are over 21 years old. Of the students who are not over 21, what is the probability they drink alcohol? Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.5143

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of students who are over 21 years old = 30% = 0.3

Probability of students who are under 21 years old = 100% - 30% = 70% = 0.7

Probability of drinking alcohol for over 21 = 80% = 0.8

Probability of not drinking alcohol for over 21 = 100%- 80% = 20% = 0.2

Let the probability of the students who are not over 21, that drink alcohol be p.

Total probability of a college student drinking alcohol = (0.3 × 0.8) + (0.7 × p)

0.6 = (0.3 × 0.8) + (0.7 × p)

0.6 = 0.24 + 0.7p

0.7p = 0.6 - 0.24

0.7p = 0.36

p = 0.36/0.7

p = 0.5143

The probability of the students who are not over 21, that drink alcohol is 0.5143.

The summit of a mountain pass is 8,050 ft above sea level. the valley below is 12 and 1/2 ft below sea level. what is the vertical distance between the summit and the valley

please please help me ​

Answers

Answer:

Vertical distance between the valley and the summit = 8062.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Distances above the sea level are denoted by positive notations and below the sea level by negative notation.

Summit of a mountain pass = 8050 (above the sea level)

Valley below the sea level = 12 and half ft = (-12.5) ft

Distance between the summit and the valley = 8050 - (-12.5)

                                                                           = 8050 + 12.5

                                                                           = 8062.5 ft

Therefore, Vertical distance = 8062.5 ft will be the answer.

Answers

Answer:

k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 - 6k = 5 - 3k -12

Add like terms at RHS

2 - 6k = -3k - 7

Add 6k to both sides

2 - 6k + 6k = -3k - 7 + 6k

2 = 3k - 7

Add 7 to both sides

2 +7 = 3k

9 = 3k

Divide both sides by 3

9/3 = 3k/3

3 = k

k  = 3
