Given the table below showing t<span>he probabilities of the orphaned pets in six cities' animal shelters being different types of animals.

Condtional probability </span><span>is a measure of the probability of an event given that another event has occurred. If the event of interest is A and the event B is known or assumed to have occurred, "the conditional probability of A given B", or "the probability of A under the condition B", is usually written as P(A|B).

The probability of A given B, is given by
P(A|B)= \frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}

From the table, the probability that an </span>orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a mastiff dog is 2.46% and the probability that <span>an <span>orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a dog is 2.91% + 2.68% + 3.09% + 2.58% = 11.26%</span>

The probability that a randomly selected orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a mastiff given that it is a dog, is given by
\frac{P(St. \, Louis\, and\, dog-mastiff)}{P(dog)} = \frac{2.46}{11.26} \times100\%=21.85\%</span>

Eva8 [605]
Let:
x = hours of travel
y = velocity

slope= rise/run slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) 
(x1,y1) = (2,50) (x2,y2) = (6,54) 
sub values back into the equation m = (54-50)/(6-2) m = 1 
POINT SLOPE FORMy-y1 = m(x-x1) y-50= 1(x-2) y = x -2 +50
y = x + 48

B) 

the graph within the first seven hours can be obtained at point B

x = 7

y = 7+48 = 55

$1.12 for 8.2 ounces? Unit Rate
Reil [10]
That is around 13 or 14 cents. The specific answer is 13.65853659 cents, but you can either round up to 14 or round down to 13 (rounding up to 14 is the correct way to do it.)

First you divide 1.12 by 8.2 to get the unit rate because It takes $1.12 to buy 8.2 ounces. 1.12/8.2=13.65853659

Complete the following proof. Given: Points R, S, T, Q on circle O Prove: m\overarc RS + m\overarc ST + m\overarc TQ + m\overarc
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

360°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

R, S, T and Q are the points on a circle O.

Since, "measure of an arc of a circle is equal to the measure of the angle subtended by the arc at the center."

By this statement,

m(\widehat{RS})=m(\angle ROS)

m(\widehat{ST})=m(\angle SOT)

m(\widehat{TQ})=m(\angle TOQ)

m(major arc RQ) = m(∠QOR)

Now m(\widehat {RS})+m(\widehat{ST})+m(\widehat{TQ}) + m(major arc RQ) = m(\angle ROS)+m(\angle SOT)+m(\angle TOQ)+m(\angle QOR)

Since sum of all angles at a point = 360°

m(\widehat {RS})+m(\widehat{ST})+m(\widehat{TQ}) + m(major arc RQ) = 360°
