Every evening, two weather stations issue weather forecast for the next day. The weather forecasts are independent. On average,

the weather forecast of station 1 is correct 90% of the cases, irrespective of weather type. This percentage is 80% for station 2. Suppose that, without any forecast, the belief is that the next day rains or has sunny weather each with a 50% chance. On a given day, station 1 predicts sunny weather for the next day, whereas station 2 predicts rain. What is the probability that the weather forecast of station 1 will be correct?

Answer:

The probability is 0.6923

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call R the event that the next day rains, S the event that the next day has sunny weather, R2 the event that the station 2 predicts rain and S1 the event that station 1 predict sunny weather.

The probability that the next day has sunny weather given that station 1 predicts sunny weather for the next day and station 2 predicts rain is calculated as:

P(S/S1∩R2) = P(S∩S1∩R2)/P(S1∩R2)

Where P(S1∩R2) = P(R∩S1∩R2) + P(S∩S1∩R2)

So, the probability P(R∩S1∩R2) that the next day rains, Station 1 predicts sunny weather and Station 2 predicts Rain is calculate as:

P(R∩S1∩R2) = 0.5 * 0.1 * 0.8 = 0.04

Because 0.5 is the probability that the next day rains, 0.1 is the probability that station 1 predicts sunny weather given that it is going to rain and 0.8 is the probability that station 2 predicts rain given that it is going to rain.

At the same way, the probability P(S∩S1∩R2) that the next day has sunny weather, Station 1 predicts sunny weather and Station 2 predicts Rain is calculate as:

P(S∩S1∩R2) = 0.5 * 0.9 * 0.2 = 0.09

Then, the probability P(S1∩R2) that station 1 predicts sunny weather for the next day, whereas station 2 predicts rain is:

P(S1∩R2) = 0.04 + 0.09 = 0.13

Finally, P(S/S1∩R2) is:

P(S/S1∩R2) = 0.09/0.13 = 0.6923

<h3>Answer:</h3>

2.25

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Consider the square ...

... (x+a)² = x² +2ax +a²

The constant term (a²) is the square of half the x-coefficient: a² = (2a/2)².

The x-coefficient in your expression is 3. The square of half that is ...

... (3/2)² = 9/4 = 2.25

Adding 2.25 to both sides gives ...

... x² +3x + 2.25 = 6 + 2.25

... (x +1.5)² = 8.25 . . . . completed square

Ayaan travels 90 miles at an average speed of 60 mph.
lawyer [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Speed = distance / time

Thereafter,

Distance :-

  • 90 miles + 40 miles = 130 miles

Time :-

  • 90 / 60 + 59 = 60.5 mph

Average Speed :-

  • 130 / 60.5 = 2.148

I think the hint gave you the answer. Solve for y.

So 2y = 5.76x
Divide both sides by 2.
y = 2.88x

Therefore your slope is 2.88
