Solve the problem. Suppose a necklace is made from 18-karat gold and weighs 54 grams. Find the weight, in grams, of the pure gold in the necklace.

85.560%

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560

add -60 to 120 which will result in : 2x+3y=180

then subtract 2x: 3y=-2x+180

lastly, divide by 2: y= -2/3x+60

• before the lesson, students attempt the assessment task individually. you then review students’

solutions and formulate questions that will them improve their work.

• during the lesson, students work collaboratively in pairs or threes, plotting graphs, completing

tables of values and deducing equations. then, based on the number of common solutions,

students link these representations.

• in a follow-up lesson, students receive your comments on the assessment task and use these to

attempt the similar task, approaching it with insights gained from the lesson.
