The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = 1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given total number of students n(T) = 150

Given 125 of them are fluent in Swahili

Let 'S' be the event of fluent in Swahili language

n(S) = 125

The probability that the fluent in Swahili language

$P(S) = \frac{n(S)}{n(T)} = \frac{125}{150} = 0.8333$

Let 'E' be the event of fluent in English language

n(E) = 135

The probability that the fluent in English language

$P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(T)} = \frac{135}{150} = 0.9$

n(E∩S) = 95

The probability that the fluent in English and Swahili

$P(SnE) = \frac{n(SnE)}{n(T)} = \frac{95}{150} = 0.633$

Step(ii):-

The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = P(S) + P(E) - P(S∩E)

= 0.833+0.9-0.633

= 1.1

Final -

The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = 1.1

fahrenheit

step-by-step explanation:

fahrenheit is more precise than celsius. the ambient temperature on most of the inhabited world ranges from -20 degrees fahrenheit to 110 degrees fahrenheit—a 130-degree range. on the celsius scale, that range is from -28.8 degrees to 43.3 degrees—a 72.1-degree range. this means that you can get a more exact measurement of the air temperature using fahrenheit because it uses almost twice the scale.

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b. this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes. this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes. this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes. this makes them dependent events.
