According to a recent study, 8.6% of high school dropouts are 16- to 17-year-olds. in addition, 6.3% of high school dropouts are white 16- to 17-year-olds. what is the probability that a randomly selected dropout is white, given that he or she is 16 to 17 years old? g

The formula for conditional probability is

... P(A|B) = P(A&B)/P(B)

Filling in the given numbers ...

... P(white | 16 or 17) = P(whiite & (16 or 17)) / P(16 or 17)

... = 6.3% / 8.6% ≈ 0.7326

step-by-step explanation:

(a) common ratio in the given sequence is, 3

(b) push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week

step-by-step explanation:

geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers that follows a pattern were the next term is found by multiplying by a constant called the common ratio(r)

(a)

given the sequence: 6 , 18 , 54 , 162 ,

this sequence is geometric sequence where each term is 3 times the previous term.

therefore,

common ratio(r) = 3.

(b)

a formula for nth term of geometric sequence is given by;

,   where r is the common ratio between the successive terms and is the first term,

to find how many push ups will kendall do on the 20th week.

here. n = 20th term.

in the given sequence first term

then;

simplify:

therefore, push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week
