An oak tree is 1.5×1031.5×103 centimeters tall. Which unit of measurement is most appropriate to measure this height?

1 answer:

3 0

If you multiply the amount that you give 1.5 × 1031.5 × 103 the result is 159366.75 centimeters, which is very long to write. For better understanding it is preferable that you write the answer to this multiplication in kilometers. Which would give a result of 1.59 kilometers

A tattoo enthusiast website claims that :

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The probability that a person is a Millennial given that they have tattoos is 0.5069 (50.69%) or about 0.51 (51%).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have here a case where we need to use Bayes' Theorem and all conditional probabilities related. Roughly speaking, a conditional probability is a kind of probability where an event determines the occurrence of another event. Mathematically:

$\\ P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}$

In the case of the Bayes' Theorem, we have also a conditional probability where one event is the sum of different probabilities.

We have a series of different probabilities that we have to distinguish one from the others:

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is a Millennial is:

$\\ P(T|M) = 0.47$

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is of Generation X is:

$\\ P(T|X) = 0.36$

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is of Boomers is:

$\\ P(T|B) = 0.13$

The probability of being of Millennials is:

$\\ P(M) = 0.22$

The probability of being of Generation X is:

$\\ P(X) = 0.20$

The probability of being of Boomers is:

$\\ P(B) = 0.22$

Therefore, the probability of the event of having a tattoo P(T) is:

$\\ P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M) + P(T|X)*P(X) + P(T|B)*P(B)$

$\\ P(T) = 0.47*0.22 + 0.36*0.20 + 0.13*0.22$

$\\ P(T) = 0.204$

For non-independent events that happen at the same time, we can say that the probability of occurring simultaneously is:

$\\ P(M \cap T) = P(M|T)*P(T)$

$\\ P(T \cap M) = P(T|M)*P(M)$

But

$\\ P(M \cap T) = P(T \cap M)$

Then

$\\ P(M|T)*P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M)$

We are asked for the probability that a person is a Millennial given or assuming that they have tattoos or P(M | T). Solving the previous formula for the latter:

$\\ P(M|T)*P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M)$

$\\ P(M|T) = \frac{P(T|M)*P(M)}{P(T)}$
