In a sample of 1,000 people, 650 people were from Redmond and 350 were from Arlington. Out of the sample, 19 people had some form of allergies. 13 of these people were from Redmond. (1) What is the probability that a randomly selected person from the survey is from Redmond? 650/1000 (2) Given that a randomly selected person from the survey has allergies, what is the probability that they are from Redmond? 13/1000 (3) What is the probability that a randomly selected person from the survey has some form of allergies? 19/1000 (4) Are the events of living in Redmond and having some sort of allergies statistically independent? Yes. No dependency is given in the question (5) Which city would you prefer to live in, assuming that your main objective was to avoid having allergies? Arlington (Has less probability of having allergies {6/350})

it should be 10 for 1o^10 + 20 for 20^20 and so on => 10 + 20 +30 +....+ 100 = 550

OR (3537331 - 2989731)/100 + 1

142. In one of the most stunning reversals in the history of marketing, the Coca-Cola company in July 1985 yielded to thousands of irate consumers demanding that it should bring back the original Coke formula. (A) demanding that it should (B) demanding it to © and their demand to (D) who demanded that it (E) who demanded it to Answer D Choice D, the best answer, uses the grammatically correct expression demanded that it bring back, in which demanded that it is followed by the subjunctive verb bring. Choice A incorrectly uses should bring rather than bring: demanding that already conveys the idea of "should," and at any rate a modal auxiliary verb, such as should or must, cannot grammatically follow the expression demanded that. Similarly, B and E use the ungrammatical expression demanding/demanded it to. In C, the expression yielded to... customers and their demand to bring... unnecessarily states that the company yielded to the customers as well as to their demand. This expression also fails to specify that the company is expected to bring back the original formula. What is wrong with B

140. Declining values for farm equipment and land, the collateral against which farmers borrow to get through the harvest season, is going to force many lenders to tighten or deny credit this spring. (A) the collateral against which farmers borrow to get through the harvest season, is (B) which farmers use as collateral to borrow against to get through the harvest season, is © the collateral which is borrowed against by farmers to get through the harvest season, is (D) which farmers use as collateral to borrow against to get through the harvest season, are (E) the collateral against which farmers borrow to get through the harvest season, are Answer E In choices A, B, and C, the singular verb is does not agree with values, the subject of the sentence. Choices B, C, and D use awkward and wordy expressions. In B and D, the expression use as collateral to borrow against to get through... awkwardly juxtaposes two infinitives and is unnecessarily redundant, since use as collateral and borrow against have the same meaning. Choice C presents the wordy expression the collateral which is borrowed against by farmers to get through..., in which the passive verb creates an awkward and confusing construction. Choice E, the best answer, succinctly and clearly identifies the Declining values as the collateral against which farmers borrow and correctly uses the plural verb are. The [tooltip=Official Guide]OG[/tooltip] explanation says that the declining values are the collateral, but I think the farm equipment and land are collateral. What if we had which preceding “the collateral” Please comment

Answer is A
