The probability of student A is 15/44

Given student A is 70% of time and student B is 60% of time

We need to find the probability of student A

Using formula of conditional probability is P(X/Y) = P(X and Y) / P(Y)

Here X = A and Y = A or B

Therefore,

P(A/A or B) = P(A and (A OR B) / P (A or B)

Now, There is none complement for at least 1

We know that Student A attends 70 % of time

So , his absence is 30% of the time .

Hence the probability of absence is 0.3

Now Considering B in the similar way

We get,

Probability of the absence is 0.4

They are both absent (0.3)(0.4)= 0.12

Here we can say that 12 % of time both are absent

So one or another present on that time is 88%

The probability of present of the time is 0.88

Now calculating the probability,

P(A/A or B) = P(A and (A OR B) / P (A or B)

= 0.3/0.88

= 30/88

= 15/44

Hence the Probability Of A is 15/44

Answer:

686.7 N

Step-by-step explanation:

mass the person is 70 kg , which is constant for the entire universe.Although weight of the person is depends upon the gravity of the planet on which he resides

W= mg

m= mass W= wight and g= Acceleration due to gravity of the planet which 9.81 m/sec^2 on earth.

therefore weight W = 70×9.81 = 686.7 N

Hence the weight of the father will be 686.7 N

Arte-miy333 [17]

Hi :)

Let's remember some arithmetic w/ negative integers :

a+(-b)=a-b

a-(-b)=a-b

Now

8-(-9)=8+9=17

So the answer's 17

I hope this helps
