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

while teresa listened to the radio, there were 9minutes of commercials, 12 minutes of talk, and 29minutes of music what percent
ahrayia [7]
To find this, you'll want to divide the amount of music by the total amount of time. 29/(9+12+29) = 29/50 = 58/100 = 58%

Plz help me 75 points for the 2 questions!!!
liraira [26]

Answer:

<h3>#1</h3>

<u>The system of equations:</u>

  • 2x + 7y = -11
  • 3x + 5y = -22

Solve by elimination.

<u>Triple the first equation, double the second one, subtract the second from the first and solve for y:</u>

  • 3(2x + 7y) - 2(3x + 5y) = 3(-11) - 2(-22)
  • 6x + 21y - 6x - 10y = -33 + 44
  • 11y = 11
  • y = 1

<u>Find x:</u>

  • 2x + 7*1 = -11
  • 2x = -11 - 7
  • 2x = -18
  • x = -9

<u>The solution is:</u>

  • x = -9, y = 1
<h3>#2</h3>

<u>Simplifying in steps:</u>

  • 8u - 29 > -3(3 - 4u)
  • 8u - 29 > - 9 + 12u
  • 12u - 8u < -29 + 9
  • 4u < -20
  • u < -5

Based on the diagram, which expresses all possible
qaws [65]

The expression that expresses all possible lengths of segment AB is 27 < AB < 81. The correct option is the second option 27 < AB < 81

<h3>Properties of a triangle</h3>

From the question, we are to determine the expression that expresses all possible lengths of segment AB

From one of the properties of a triangle,

The <u>third side</u> of any triangle is greater than the difference of the other <u>two sides</u>; and the <u>third side</u> of any triangle is lesser than the sum of the <u>two other sides</u>

Then, we can write that

AB < 27 + 54

and

AB > 54 - 27

Putting the two inequalities together, we get

54 - 27 < AB < 27 + 54

27 < AB < 81

Hence, the expression that expresses all possible lengths of segment AB is 27 < AB < 81. The correct option is the second option 27 < AB < 81
