The weather report states that the probability it will rain on wednesday is 30 percent and the probability that it will rain on saturday is 60 percent. what is the probability that it will rain on wednesday and on saturday?

18%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if A and B are independent events,

then the probability that events A and B both happens is

P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B).

Let A be the event that it will rain on Wednesday

Then P(A)=30%=0.3

Let B be the event that it will rain on Saturday

then P(B)=60%=0.6

The probability that it will rain on Wednesday and on Saturday

P(A and B)=0.3 x 0.6=0.18=18%

step-by-step explanation:

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

1st step: isolate x.

24 - 3x = -27

-24         -24

-3x   =   -51

2nd step: divide.

-3x     =   -51

  3             3

  x       =     17
