If a pair of fair dice is cast, the probability that the <span>sum of the numbers falling uppermost is 9, given that at least one of the numbers falling uppermost is a 3 is given by:

\frac{P(sum\, of\, 9\, \cup\,3)}{P(3)}

The number of outcomes of sum of 9 where at last one is 3 is (3, 6) and (6, 3) = 2.

</span>The number of outcomes of last one of the numbers falling uppermost is a 3 is (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6), (1, 3), (2, 3), (4, 3), (5, 3) and (6, 3) = 11.

Therefore, <span>the probabiliy that the sum of the numbers falling uppermost is 9, given that at least one of the numbers falling uppermost is a 3 is 2 / 11.</span>

Consider a disease whose presence can be identified by carrying out a blood test. Let p denote the probability that a randomly s
barxatty [35]

Answer:

0 tests

Yes, this procedure is better on the average than testing everyone, it makes it less cumbersome.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information:

Let P be the probability that a randomly selected individual has the disease = 0.1. N individuals are randomly selected, thereafter, blood samples of each person would be tested after combining all specimens. Should in case one person has the disease then it yields a positive result and test should be set for each person.

Let Y be number tests

For n = 3 there are two possibilities. If no one has the disease then the value is 1 otherwise the value is 4, here P = 0.1

Therefore, for Y = 1

P(Y-1) = P(no one has disease)

= 0.9³

= 0.729

If Y = 4

P(Y-4) = 1-P(y = 1)

= 1 - 0.729 = 0.271

The expected number of tests using this formular gives

E(Y) = 1×0.729 + 4×0.271

E(Y) = 0

Which lines are parallel if m4 = m5? Justify your answer.
crimeas [40]
Opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are equal, so angle 1 is the same as angle 4. That means angle 1 = angle 5 as well. 

<span>When a line intersects two parallel lines, the corresponding angles are equal. That is, if r and s are parallel, then the angles formed when l intersects r are the same s the angles formed when l intersects s. Angle 1 = Angle 5, Angle 2 = Angle 6, and so forth. Since we know angle 1 = angle 5, we can conclude that r and s are parallel.</span>

This figure shows △XYZ . MZ¯¯¯¯¯¯ is the angle bisector of ∠YZX . What is XM ? Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box. unit
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Length of XM is 5.5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given △XYZ where MZ is the angle bisector of ∠YZX . we have to find the length of XM.

A triangle with vertices  X, Y, and Z. Side XZ is base. A line segment drawn from Z to M bisects ∠YZX into two parts ∠YZM and ∠XZM.

YZ=7 units, XZ=11 units and YM=3.5 units

By angle bisector theorem which states that an angle bisector of an angle divides the opposite side in two segments that are proportional to the another two sides of the triangle.

Hence, \frac{YM}{MX}=\frac{YZ}{XZ}

⇒ \frac{3.5}{MX}=\frac{7}{11}

⇒ MX=5.5 units.

Hence, length of XM is 5.5 units.
