The URS construction company has submitted two​ bids, one to build a large hotel in London and the other to build a commercial o

ffice building in New York City. The company believes it has a​ 40% chance of winning the hotel bid and a​ 25% chance of winning the office building bid. The company also believes that winning the hotel bid is independent of winning the office building bid. What is the probability the company will win at least one​ contract?

Answer: Our required probability is 0.55.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that chance of winning the hotel bid = 40%

Probability that no chance of winning the hotel bid = 100-40=60%

Probability that chance of winning the office building bid = 25%

Probability that no chance of winning the office building bid = 100-25 = 75%

So, Probability that the company will win at least one contract is given by

0.4\times 0.75+0.6\times 0.25+0.4\times 0.25\\\\=0.55

Hence, our required probability is 0.55.

a rectangle is made by joining two squares adjacent to each other as shown below. if one squared has an area of 144 squared cent
liberstina [14]

Answer:

Hello! After reading your question I have deduced that the correct answer is 288² cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The way I came to this conclusion was as follows:

Firstly:

If said rectangle is two squares put side by side (adjacent), then a valid assumption is that both squares are the same size.

This is because all four sides of a square have to be equal.

Thus if the two squares are joined together on one side, then all the other sides of both the squares will be the same length.

Thus both of the squares are going to be the same size, so they will have the same area.

Secondly:

If the area of one square is 144² cm then the area of the other square should also be 144² cm.

Thus if you combine the areas of both the squares, that make up the rectangle, you are left with the area of the rectangle being 288² cm.

I hope this helped!

When Val checks her cable bill, she is shocked by her movie-rental bill for the month. Renting movies costs $2.99 for each movie
astraxan [27]

Answer:

She should buy the monthly plan for the unlimited movies rather than pay $2.99 per movie. This is because, the more she pay that amount for each movie, the higher her expenses would become at the end of each month.

For example, let assume, in a month, she 8 free days (Saturday and Sunday). She paying for each movie each of those days would supersede the amount she could have spent assuming she did the unlimited monthly plan of $7.99.

That notwithstanding other days which will feel like watching movies or the public holidays which she would be free to relax.
