A division in half can yield different results. Take a square for instance, you can divide it in half by cutting along the diagonal, or cutting parallel to the borders.

divide by half. If you are talking about dividing numbers or objects into two equal parts, the expression to use is “divide in half,” not “divide by half.” Technically, to divide a number by 1/2 is the same as to multiply it by 2

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

Let's have a schematic view of a tree diagram

A

P(Santa Cruz) P(Isabella)

= 13/15 = 2/15

P(Success | Santa Cruz) = 0.09 P(Success | Isabella) = x

We are told that many have tried to locate the giant turtle, but 89% of them have failed.

This means the probability of success is:

P(success) = 1 - 0.89 = 0.11

We need to find P(Success | Isabella),

Suppose P(Success | Isabella) be x as shown above,

Then:

P (Success) = P(Santa) P((Success | Santa Cruz) + P(Isabella) P(Success | Isabella)

$0.11 = \dfrac{13}{15}(0.09)+ \dfrac{2}{15}(x)$

$0.11 - \dfrac{13}{15}(0.09)= \dfrac{2}{15}(x)$

$0.032= 0.133(x)$

make x the subject of the formula:

x = 0.032/0.133

x = 0.24
