In a finance class, the final grade is based on three tests. Historically, the instructor tells the class that the joint probabi

lity of scoring "A"'s on the first two tests is 0.5. A student assigns a probability of 0.9 that she will get an "A" on the first test. What is the probability that the student will score an "A" on the second test given that she scored an "A" on the first test?

Answer:

The probability of getting an A on the second test given that she scored an A on the first test is P(A_1\&A_2)/P(A_1)=5/9\approx0.555.

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that:

- The probability of getting A's in both exams is P=0.5.

- The probability of gettina an A in the first exam is P=0.9.

The probability of getting an A on the second test given that she scored an A on the first test can be calculated as:

P(A_1\&A_2)=P(A_1)*P(A_2|A_1)\\\\P(A_2|A_1)=P(A_1\&A_2)/P(A_1)=0.5/0.9=0.555

D-- 0.44
P(A on the 2nd | A on the 1st) = P(A1 and A2)/P(A1) = .4/.9 = .44

How do i write 12.009 in a word form?
tia_tia [17]
Your answer will be twelve and nine thousandths because in place value decimals are like tenths, hundredths, thousandths. In place value for regular numbers are ones, tens, hundreds and so on. So, when you have 12.009, you are going to separate the decimals with the numbers. Then, write down the number in words which would be twelve. Now, go to the decimal and write that down, which is 9 thousandths. Finally, combine the both of them to get: twelve and nine thousandths.

Hope this helps :) 
and good luck

RQ is tangent to Circle S. Use the diagram below to find the measure of QRS. mQRS < 90 mQRS > 90 mQRS = 90 not enough info
Masteriza [31]
Given that you did not include the diagram showing the circle, the tangent line and the points Q, R, and S, I am going to give you the explanation to answer the question.

1) The tangent lines to a circle form a 90° angle with the radius at the point of intersection.

2) Therefore, if the point of intersection of the tangent line and the circle is named R, and the points S and Q are one the center of the circle and the other is on the line RQ, then you know that the segment SR is a radius and the line RQ is the tangent, which means that they are perpendicular, i.e. the angle QRS is measures 90°.

In this case the answer is m angle QRS = 90°.

3) Otherwise the angle is different to 90° and you need to observe the figure to conclude whether it is greater than 90°, less than 90° or there is not enough information.
