. The probability that his daughter will score more than 10 points in her game is 0.50. Assume the probability of each scoring more than 10 points is independent from the other. What is the probability of ONLY his daughter scoring more than 10 points

Answer:

P (B)= 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the probability his son will score more than 10 points in his game then P (A)=  0.40.

Let B be the probability that his daughter will score more than 10 points in her game  then P (B)= 0.50.

As the probability of each scoring more than 10 points is independent from the other. The probability of ONLY his daughter scoring more than 10 points

is given by

P (B)= P ( B/A)    For independent events.

P (B/A)= P (B and A)/ P (A) = 0.5*0.4/0.4= 0.5

P (B)= 0.5

Kruka [31]
M + 20 = 9
u need to subtract 20 from both sides because u want to isolate m

m + 20 = 9
m + 20 - 20 = 9 - 20
m = - 11

If your front lawn is 17.0 feet wide and 20.0 feet long, and each square foot of lawn accumulates 1050 new snowflakes every minu
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: 42.84 kg

Step-by-step explanation: Lawn is 17 ft x 20 ft.

Its area is S = 17 x 20 = 340 ft²

Each ft² of lawn accumulates 1050 snowflakes/min, 1ft² = 1050 s.f./min.

As 1 hour has 60 min, the lawn accumulates 63000/hour →

1050 x 60 = 63000

1ft² = 63000s.f./hour

This way, 340 ft² of lawn will accumulate 21,420,000 s.f/hour →

340 x 63000 = 21420000

As 1 snowflake has 2mg,  21,420,000 will have 42,840,000 mg.

As 1kg = 1,000,000 mg

42,840,000/1,000,000 = 42.84 kg

You are a serious student who studies on Friday nights but your roommate goes out and has a good time. 40% of the time he goes o
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

the probability is 0.24 or 24%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Percentage of time he goes out with his girlfriend = 40%

Percentage of time he goes out to a bar = 60%

If he goes out with his girlfriend, the percentage of times he spends the night at his girlfriend’s apartment = 30%

If he goes out to a bar, percentage of times he gets in a fight and gets thrown in jail = 40%

let probability that the roommate went to the bar = A

 

As the roommate going to jail is a conditional probability dependent on A happening, the true probability of the roommate is found by multiplying the absolute probability of the roommate going out to a bar (A) by the probability of the roommate going to jail if he goes to a bar

that is Pr(B) =Pr (B n A)

Pr(B) = Pr(B/A) *Pr(A)

This is given as 60% * 40% or 0.6 * 0.4 (probabilities are 1/100 of percentages)

This gives an answer of 0.24 or 24%
