2&a_2&20\\
3&a_3&20r\\
4&a_4&20rr\\
&&20r^2\\\\
&&\frac{45}{4}
\end{array}\implies \stackrel{4^{th}~term}{20r^2=\cfrac{45}{4}}\implies r^2=\cfrac{45}{80}
\\\\\\
r^2=\stackrel{simplified}{\cfrac{9}{16}}\implies r=\sqrt{\cfrac{9}{16}}\implies r=\cfrac{\sqrt{9}}{\sqrt{16}}\implies r=\cfrac{3}{4}

La probabilidad de que el estudiante A apruebe un examen de MM-100 es 0.6, la probabilidad de que apruebe un estudiante B es 0.4
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

0.5 = 50% probabilidad de que apruebe el estudiante B dado que el estudiante A aprueba.

Step-by-step explanation:

La probabilidad condicional :

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

En el cual:

P(B|A) es la probabilidad de que ocurra el evento B, dado que A sucedió.  

P(A \cap B) es la probabilidad de que ocurran tanto A como B.  

P(A) es la probabilidad de que ocurra A.

En esta pregunta :

Evento A: Estudiante A aprueba.

Evento B: Estudiante B aprueba.

La probabilidad de que el estudiante A apruebe un examen de MM-100 es 0.6

Entonces P(A) = 0.6

La probabilidad de que ambos estudiantes aprueben es 0.3

Entonces P(A \cap B) = 0.3

¿Cual es la probabilidad de que apruebe el estudiante B dado que el estudiante A aprueba.?

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.3}{0.6} = 0.5

0.5 = 50% probabilidad de que apruebe el estudiante B dado que el estudiante A aprueba.

Find the term that must be added to the equation x2−2x=1 to make it into a perfect square.
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The perfect square ( x -1 )² = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given equation  x² - 2 x = 1

              ⇒        x² - 2 x + 1 -1 = 1

             ⇒        x² - 2x + 1² = 1 +1

             ⇒     ( x -1 )² = 2
