Answer:

B) 0.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define:

  • A: the home has a laptop
  • B: the home has a desktop computer.

Data

  • P(B) = 0.82
  • P(A∩B) = 0.47

We want to find the probability that a home has a laptop given that it has a  desktop computer, that is, P(A|B).

P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B) = 0.47/0.82 = 0.57

Greg is trying to solve a puzzle where he has to figure out two numbers, x and y. Three less than two-third of x is greater than
Fittoniya [83]
Inequation 1: 

\frac{2}{3}x-3 \geq y

to plot the pairs (x, y) for which the inequation holds, draw the line y=\frac{2}{3}x-3

then pick a point in either side of the line. If that point is a solution of the inequation, than color that region of the line, if that point is not a solution, then color the other part of the line.

we do the same for the second inequation. Then the solution, is the region of the x-y axes colored in both cases.

inequation 2: 

y+ \frac{2}{3}x\ \textless \ 4

y\ \textless \ - \frac{2}{3} x+ 4



draw the lines 

i)  y=\frac{2}{3}x-3          use points (0, -3),  (3, -1)

ii)y=- \frac{2}{3} x+ 4       use points ( 0, 4),   (3, 2)


let's use the point P(3, 3) to see what region of the lines need to be coloured:

\frac{2}{3}x-3 \geq y  ; 
\frac{2}{3}(3)-3 \geq 3
2-3 \geq 3, not true so we color the region not containing this point


y+ \frac{2}{3}x\ \textless \ 4
(3)+ \frac{2}{3}(3)\ \textless \ 4
3+ 5\ \textless \ 4 not true, so we color the region not containing the point (3, 3)

The graph representing the system of inequalities is the region colored both red and blue, with the blue line not dashed, and the red line dashed.

Which phrase describes the perpendicular distance between two bases of a cylinder
Flura [38]

Answer:

The height of the cylinder

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular distance between two bases of a cylinder is not going to be the radius or diameter of the bases (because it is BETWEEN the bases, not ON them) and it is not the area of the bases because the area of a shape cannot be a distance.

So, the only option left is the height of the cylinder, which is the correct answer.
