Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

CP is an angle bisector of angle BCD and BP is the angle bisector of angle CBE

Therefore, m∠DCP ≅ m∠BCP

and m∠PBE ≅ m∠PBC

m∠A + m∠CBA = m∠BCD

m∠A + (180° - m∠CBE) = m∠BCD

m∠A + 180° = m∠CBE + m∠BCD

m∠A + 180° = 2(m∠PCB) + 2(m∠PBC) [Since m∠CBE = 2m∠PCB and m∠BCD = 2(m∠PBC)

m∠A + 180° = 2(m∠PCB + m∠PBC)

m∠A + 180° = 2(180° - m∠BPC) [Since m∠PCB + m∠PBC + m∠BPC = 180°]

[\frac{1}{2}(m\angle A)]+90=180 - m\angle BPC

m∠BPC = 180 - [\frac{1}{2}(m\angle A)]-90

m∠BPC = 90 - \frac{1}{2}m\angle A

Event: Probability: A. Too much enamel 0.18 B. Too little enamel 0.24 C. Uneven application 0.33 D. No defects noted 0.47 


let P(AC) = x, P(BC) = y, then P(A) + P(B) + P(C) - (x+y) = 1-0.47 = 0.53 x+y = 0.22 
3. The probability of paint defects that results to <span>an improper amount of paint and uneven application? </span>
 P(A U B U C) = 0.53 

4. <span>the probability of a paint defect that results to</span>
<span>the proper amount of paint, but uneven application?</span>
P(C) - P(AC) - P(BC) = 0.47 - 0.22 = 0.25 


A and B are disjoint so P(ABC) = 0, but you can have P(AC) and P(BC). you can't compute these separately here, but you can compute P(AC) + P(BC). By the way, P(AC) eg is just an abbreviated version of P(A∩C).

Hello!

The words at least means that the worker needs to work 8, 9 or 10 hours. We can add probabilities, so we will add .6 (for those working 8 hours), .15 (for those working 9 hours) and .08 (for those working 10 hours) to get a total probability of .83.
Hope this helps!

zheka24 [161]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The cost of ketchup bottle, x = 2.89</h2><h2>The cost of mustard bottle, y = 1.59</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ketchup be represented as x and mustard as y

Briana  bought 3 bottles of ketchup and 2 bottles of mustard and for $11.85

3x + 2y = 11.85 ...(1)

Logan bought 2 bottles of ketchup and 5 bottles of mustard for $13.73.

2x + 5y = 13.73 ...(2)

Multiplying eq (1) by 2, we get

6x + 4y = 23.7 ...(3)

Multiplying eq (2) by 3, we get

6x + 15y = 41.19 ...(4)

Subtracting eq (3) from (4),

we get 11y = 17.49

y = 1.59, substitute it in eq(1), we get

x = 2.89

Therefore, the cost of ketchup bottle, x = 2.89

The cost of mustard bottle, y = 1.59
