Algebra.Com's Answer #378668 by richard1234(7193) You can put this solution on YOUR website! Can't determine. You don't know how the obese people are distributed among genders. Therefore you can't claim that .24(.49) = .1176 = 11.76% is correct unless you know that the obesity is distributed evenly among genders.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
