olga nikolaevna [1]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

1/6 chance

Step-by-step explanation:

a six sided die has 6 numbers, there is an equal chance that any of them can be rolled. 3 is one of those numbers. B=1/6 chance

In a experiment, the probability that event A occurs is 5/9, the probability that event B occurs is 5/7, and the probability tha
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

52.5% probability that A occurs given B occurs

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have two events, A and B, the conditional probability formula is:

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

In which

P(A|B) is the probability of A happening given that B happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(B) is the probability of B happening.

In this problem, we have that:

P(A \cap B) = \frac{3}{8}, P(B) = \frac{5}{7}

So

P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} = \frac{\frac{3}{8}}{\frac{5}{7}} = 0.525

52.5% probability that A occurs given B occurs

For a moving object, the force acting on the object varies directly with the object's acceleration. When a force of 10 N acts on
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The force is 12 N

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Direct variation is a relationship between two variables that can

 be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a

 constant times the other

- If y ∝ x , then y = kx , where k is the constant of variation

* Lets solve the problem

- The force acting on the object varies directly with the object's

  acceleration

∵ The force is F in newtons and a is the acceleration is m/s²

∴ F ∝ a

∴ F = ka

- To find k substitute F and a by the initial values of them

∵ A force of 10 N acts on a certain object, the acceleration of the

  object is 5 m/s²

∵ F = 10 N when a = 5 m/s²

∵ F = ka

∴ 10 = k(5)

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ K = 2

- Substitute the value of k in the equation

∴ F = 2a

- Lets find the force when the acceleration is 6 m/s²

∵ a = 6 m/s²

∴ F = 2(6) = 12

* The force is 12 N

Pumps a, b, and c operate at their respective constant rates. pumps a and b, operating simultaneously, can fill a certain tank i
MrMuchimi
Let a, b, and c be the times each pump will fill the tank when working alone.

Therefore, in 1 hour;

1/a +1/b = 1/(6/5) = 5/6 ---- (1)
1/a+1/c = 1/(3/2) = 2/3 ---- (2)
1/b+1/c = 1/(2) = 1/2 ---- (3)

From equation (1)
1/a = 5/6-1/b

Substituting for 1/a in eqn (2)
5/6-1/b+1/c = 2/3
-1/b +1/c = -1/6 => 1/c = 1/b - 1/6 --- (4)

Using eqn (4) in eqn (3)
1/b+1/b-1/6 = 1/2
2/b-1/6 = 1/2
2/b =1/2+1/6 = 2/3
1/b = 1/3
Then,
1/c = 1/3 - 1/6 = 1/6
1/a = 5/6 - 1/3 = 1/2

This means, in 1 hour and with all the pumps working together, the tank will be filled to;
1/a+1/b+1/c = 1/2+1/3+1/6 = 1 (filled fully).

Therefore, it will take 1 hour to fill the tank when all pumps are working together.
