An athlete has 75% of winning the race if he is not injured. If he is injured, his probability of winning the race is only 15%.

If the total chances of winning is 51%, what is the probability that he gets injured?

Answer:

X = 'is the athlete injured' (X in {0,1})

Y = 'the athlete wins' (Y in {0,1})

P(Y=1|X=0) = 0.75

P(Y=1|X=1) = 0.15

P(Y=1) = 0.51

We are looking for P(X=1) - P(Y=1) = P(Y=1|X=0)*(1-P(X=1)) + P(Y=1|X=1)*P(X=1)

The above equation should provide you with the answer 0.4!

gavmur [86]

Answer:

$6,427.99

Step-by-step explanation:

-We first find the effective annual interest rate as follows:

i_m=(1+i/m)^m-1\\\\=(1+0.0825/2)^2-1\\\\=0.084202

#We the use this rate to find the compounded amount after 18 years:

A=P(1+i_m)^n\\\\=1500(1.084202)^{18}\\\\=6427.99

Hence, the amount after 18 years is $6,427.99

Find the? inverse, if it? exists, for the given matrix.<br><br> [4 3]<br><br> [3 6]
True [87]

Answer:

Therefore, the inverse of given matrix is

=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of a square matrix A is A^{-1} such that

A A^{-1}=I where I is the identity matrix.

Consider, A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&3\\3&6\end{array}\right]

\mathrm{Matrix\:can\:only\:be\:inverted\:if\:it\:is\:non-singular,\:that\:is:}

\det \begin{pmatrix}4&3 \\3&6\end{pmatrix}\ne 0

\mathrm{Find\:2x2\:matrix\:inverse\:according\:to\:the\:formula}:\quad \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}^{-1}=\frac{1}{\det \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}}\begin{pmatrix}d\:&\:-b\:\\ -c\:&\:a\:\end{pmatrix}

=\frac{1}{\det \begin{pmatrix}4&3\\ 3&6\end{pmatrix}}\begin{pmatrix}6&-3\\ -3&4\end{pmatrix}

\mathrm{Find\:the\:matrix\:determinant\:according\:to\:formula}:\quad \det \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}\:=\:ad-bc

4\cdot \:6-3\cdot \:3=15

=\frac{1}{15}\begin{pmatrix}6&-3\\ -3&4\end{pmatrix}

=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}

Therefore, the inverse of given matrix is

=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}
