The probability that he will receive the job will be 1 / 6

The complete question is given below:-

A job applicant estimates that his chance of passing a qualifying examination is 2/3, and his chance of being appointed if he does pass is 1/4. What is the probability that he will receive the job?

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

It is given that:

The chance of passing a qualifying examination is 2/3=P

and chance of being appointed, if he does pass, is 1/4=P'

Now, we are asked to find the probability that he will receive the job.

We are asked to find the probability that he will receive the job.

The probability is calculated as The probability that he qualify the exam×Probability that he is being appointed.

=P×P'

=(2/3)×(1/4)

=1/6

Therefore the probability that he will receive the job will be 1 / 6

Gerald mixes 2/3 cup whole wheat flour and 1/2 cup buckwheat flour to make 4 pancakes. How much of each type of flourbis needed
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Whole Wheat = 1/6

Buckwheat = 1/8

W = whole wheat flour

B = buckwheat flour

⅔W + ½B = 4

Divide everything by 4

⅔W/4 + ½B/4 = 4/4

2/12W + 1/8B = 4/4

1/6W + ⅛B = 1

R/16 + 6 = 7 pLEASE HELP WITHIN A HOUR OR TWO
cestrela7 [59]

Solution:

<u>Simplify the equation and solve for r.</u>

  • r/16 + 6 = 7
  • => r/16 = 7 - 6
  • => r/16 = 1
  • => r = 16

The value of r is 16.

<u>Check:</u>

  • r/16 + 6 = 7
  • => 16/16 + 6 = 7
  • => 1 + 6 = 7
  • => 7 = 7 (Proved correct)

Is the line through points P(2, –5) and Q(–5, –1) parallel to the line through points R(5, 4) and S(–2, 5)? Explain.
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

the answer is No

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the first line has a slope of -4/7 and the other line has a slope of -1/7. This can be shown in point slope form y-y1=m(x-x1) where m=∆y/∆x.

Through points P and Q, the point slope is represented as -1-(-5)=m(-5-2) ; 4 = -7m ; m = 4/-7. The next two points R and S can be shown in point slope as 5-4=m(-2-5) ; 1 = -7m ; m =1/-7. With the fact that parallel lines must have equal slopes, these two lines cannot be parallel because -4/7≠-1/7
