Answer:

0.6154

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Baye's theorem, the probability that the flip resulted in a​ head If the selected marble selected is​ red is given by;

P( H | R ) = (P( R | H ) × P( H ))/[(P( R | H ) × P( H)) + (P( R | -H ) × P( -H ))]

We can deduce that;

P( R | H ) = 4/10 = 0.4

P( R | -H ) = 3/8 = 0.375

P( -H ) = 1 - P( H )

We are given P(H) = 0.6

Thus;

P( -H ) = 1 - P( H ) = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

Plugging in the derived values into the derived Baye's theorem, we have;

P( H | R ) = [0.4 × 0.6] /[(0.4 × 0.6) + (0.375 × 0.4)]

P( H | R ) = 0.6154

Find a rational number and an irrational number that are between 5.2 and 5.5. Include the decimal approximation of the irrationa
maw [93]

Answer:

  • Rational: 5.39
  • Irrational: √29 ≈ 5.39

Step-by-step explanation:

Any number you can write completely that has a value between the given numbers will be a suitable rational number.

There are many ways to find irrational numbers in the given range. You can make one up, such as ...

... 5.3102003000400005000006...

a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal. (This one has a pattern that makes it easy to extend, but that doesn't make it rational.)

Or, you can use roots, logs, trig functions, exponential functions, or any of the other functions we study that have irrational values. You can add, subtract, or combine them in other ways. (tan(70°)+∛20, for example) For this, I chose √29, because that square root is between the given numbers and 29 is not a perfect square.

Twelve friends came to Guy's birthday party. He received seven gifts and a total of $95 in cash for his birthday. He buys an air
anastassius [24]
Hey!

Ignore the birthday party stuff and go to 95 first. Subtract 9 from 95 you get the answer 86. Next you need to find how many times 8 goes into 86. 86/8 which is 10 with a remainder of 6. Therefore, Guy can donate to 6 animal shelter. I hope this helps with future problems.
