When two probabilities are multiplied, the probability represents a compound event

1 answer:

lesya [120]3 years ago

True: If we have two independent events and want to know the probability of their happening at the same time, we multiply the two probabilities together. "Two events happening at the same time" is a compound event. We more often see this as "P(xy)," the probability of x AND y.

a principal orders 8 sub sandwiches for a teachers meeting. she cuts the subs into thirds and puts the mimi sub onto a tray how

lukranit [14]

1 sub is divided into thirds, so there are now 3 parts to each sub. Multiply the three parts per sub by the total number of subs purchased.

Find # Parts Per Sub
= 1 sub ÷ 1/3
multiply by the reciprocal of 1/3
= 1 * 3/1
= 3 parts per sub

Find Total Parts
= 8 subs * 3 parts per sub
= 24 mini subs

ANSWER: 24 mini subs

Hope this helps! :)

After 12 days you have 800 lbs of plutonium left to fuel your nuclear reactor. After 30 days you have 755 lbs. Find the equation

Fantom [35]

M=(755-800) /30-12
m= -45/18 or -2.5

y-800 = -2.5(x-12)
y-800 = -2.5x + 30
y = -2.5x + 830

y = -2.5(120) + 830
y = 530 lbs

Answer:

$\frac{1}{16}$ $\frac{10}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a reciprocal is a number that when multiplied by a given number gives 1 as product.

16 * x = 1

x = 1/16

9/10 * x = 1

x = 10/9

NO LINKS!!! Part 1: y = x^3<br><br>Shape:<br>Domain:<br>Range: <br>Locater point:

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Shape: <em>Not sure what to put</em>

Domain: ( -oo, oo )

Range: ( -oo, oo )

Locater point: ( 0, 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Shape - You have the shape on the graph

Domain and Range - Both go on forever since there is no hole/interruption

Locater Point: I would say origin because it is the closest thing to a vertex, which is an example of a locater point.

Hopefully this helps!

You are creating a decorated rope that is at least 20 feet long to create a rope you are using beads that are 6 inches long writ

Nitella [24]

Answer:

The number of beads used must be at least 40 to make a decorated rope of at least 20 feet length. The inequality is:

$6n\geq 240\\n\geq 40$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of beads used be 'n'.

Now, length of 1 bead = 6 in

∴ Length of 'n' beads = $6\times n=6n\ in$

Now, minimum length of rope is 20 ft. Converting feet to inches, we get:

$20\ ft =20\times 12=240\ in$

Now, beads are inserted in the rope. So, the length of rope is same as the length of all the beads joined together.

As per question, length must be at least 20 ft or 240 in.

Therefore, the length of all beads joined together must be at least 240 inches. This gives,

$6n\geq 240\\n\geq \frac{240}{6}\\n\geq 40$

Therefore, the number of beads used must be at least 40 to make a decorated rope of at least 20 feet length.
