Answer:

snail will take 8 hours and 20 minutes to crawl 1 meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we can calculate the time traveled by snail in 1 meter by applying unitary method.

∵ Snail crawls 12 centimeter distance in the time = 1 hour

∴ Snail crawls 1 centimeter in the time = $\frac{1}{12}$ hour

∴ Snail will crawl 100 centimeters (1 meter) = $\frac{100}{12}$ hours

= $8\frac{1}{3}$ hours

= 8hours 20minutes

Therefore, snail will take 8 hours and 20 minutes to crawl 1 meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Regarding the reasons that traffic accidents occur:

28% are caused by distracted drivers using cell phones or texting

11% of the drivers' user their phones at any time

The probability of a driver having an accident is 5.26%

DC = event that a randomly selected driver is using a cell phone.

P(DC)= 0.11

TA = event that a randomly selected driver has a traffic accident.

P(TA)= 0.0526

c) and f)

If both events are related, i.e. dependent, then you would expect that the occurrence of one of these events will affect the probability of the other one. If they are not related, i.e. independent events, then their probabilities will not be affected by the occurrence of one or another:

If both events are independent P(TA|DC)= P(TA)

If they are dependent, then:

P(TA|DC)≠ P(TA)

P(TA|DC)= 0.28

P(TA)= 0.0526

As you can see the probability of the driver having an accident given that he was using the cell phone is different from the probability of the driver having an accident. This means that both events are related.

d) and e)

You have to calculate the probability that "the driver was distracted with the phone given that he had an accident", symbolically P(DC|TA)

P(DC|TA) = $\frac{P(DCnTA)}{P(TA)}$

$P(TA|DC)= \frac{P(TAnDC}{P(DC)}$ ⇒ P(DC∩TA)= P(TA|DC)*P(DC)= 0.28 * 0.11= 0.0308

P(DC|TA) = $\frac{0.0308}{0.0526}= 0.585= 0.59$

I hope this helps!

We know that the true value for pi is given as 3.14156.

Now, we have been given that the approximate value for pi is 3.141

We know the formula

Absolute error, $\Delta x = | \text{True value } - \text{ Approximate value} | \\
\\
\Delta x =|3.14156-3.141|\\
\\
\Delta x =0.00056$

Relative error is given by

$\text{Relative error }= \frac{\Delta x}{\text{true value} }\\
\\
\text{Relative error }=\frac{0.00056}{3.14156} \\
\\
[tex]\text{Relative error }=0.000178$

The percentage error is given by

$\text{Relative error } \times 100\\ 
\\ 
0.000178\times 100 
\\ 
=0.0178 \%$
