The probability that he will be rejected to at least one of the colleges is 0.51.

Given probability that he will admit in A is 0.7, probability that he will not be admit in B is 0.5, probability that atleast one of his applications got rejected is 0.6.

We have to find the probability that he will be rejected to at least one of the colleges.

Probability that he will admit in A =0.7

Probability that he will not admit in A=1-0.7=0.3

Probability that he will not admit in B =0.5

Probability that he will admit in B=1-0.5=0.5

Probability  that he will be rejected to at least one of the colleges=probability that he will admit in A* probability that he will not admit in B+ probability that he will admit in B* probability that he will not admit in A+ probability that he will not admit in A* probability that he will not admit in B

=0.7*0.5+0.5*0.3+0.5*0.3

=0.35+0.15+0.15

=0.51

Hence the probability that he will be rejected to at least one of the colleges is 0.51.

Determine the y-intercept of the graph of this equation: y - 3 = 2(x + 5)
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

y intercept is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 3 = 2(x + 5)

To find the y intercept, let x=0 and solve for y

y - 3 = 2(0 + 5)

y - 3 = 2(5)

y -3 =10

y-3+3 = 10+3

y = 13

The phone company A Fee and Fee has a monthly cellular plan where a customer pays a flat monthly fee and then a certain amount o
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

y = 0.2x + 37

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Find an equation in the form y = mx + b, where x is the number of monthly minutes used and y is the total monthly of the Ringular plan.

(x, y) = (minutes, cost)

(110, 59)

(600, 157)

slope = m = dy/dx

dy/dx = change in y/change in x

m = dy/dx

m = (157 - 59)/(600-110)

m = 98/490

m = 0.2

a) the linear equation:

y - 59 = 0.2(x - 110)

y - 59 = 0.2x - 22

y = 0.2x - 22 + 59

y = 0.2x + 37
