Answer:

a. 52%

b. 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represents the event of raining on Monday and B represents the event of raining in Tuesday,

Then according to the question,

P(A) = 20% = 0.2,

P(B) = 40% = 0.4,

Here, A and B are independent events,

So, P(A∩B) = P(A) × P(B),

⇒ P(A∩B) = 0.2 × 0.4 = 0.08

We know that,

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

a. The probability it rains on Monday or Tuesday, P(A∪B) = 0.2 + 0.4 - 0.08

= 0.52

= 52%

b. The conditional probability it rains on Tuesday given that it rained on Monday,

P(\frac{B}{A})=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.08}{0.2}=0.4 = 40\%

Answer:

x= - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. - 8(x +7) = 16
  2. -8x - 56 = 16
  3. -8x = 16 + 56
  4. -8x = 72
  5. x = 72 ÷ (-8)
  6. x = -9

The diagram below shows several parking spots near the grocery store, formed with three parallel line segments and a transversal
Marina CMI [18]
Something I noticed about angle 4, is that it shares a straight line with angle 3. (above it is a straight line)

A straight line equals 180 degrees.

So, angle 4 + angle 3= 180 degrees.

Angle 3 is congruent to angle 7.

180-132= Angle 7

180-132= 48

48 degrees is your answer.

I hope this helps!

natita [175]

Answer:

All real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

−x2−6<0

Let's find the critical points of the inequality.

−x2−6=0

−x2−6+6=0+6(Add 6 to both sides)

−x2=6

−x2

−1

=

6

−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

x2=−6

x=±√−6(Take square root)

Pls help I'm bad at math v.v<br><br> Lines m and n are parallel.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The measure of angle 1 is 55.

Step-by-step explanation:

The top angle= 75 because of the vertical angle theorem

The right angle= 50 because of the alternate exterior angle theorem

75+50=125

There are 180 degrees in a triangle so the angle has to equal 55
