Well, the average of a sum of number is found by adding each given number and dividing that number by the amount of given numbers. 
Example: 5+4+3+8=20 
                and 20/4 = 5, the average of the numbers
Multiply 1.8 by 8.0 using this format:

1.8

The area of a playground is 216 yd^2. The width of the playground is 6 yd longer than its length. Find the length and width of t
zvonat [6]

Let the length of the playground be x, then the width is 6 + x.

Area = length * width = x * (6 + x) = 6x + x^2 = 216

Solving the quadratic equation x^2 + 6x - 216 = 0, we have x = 12 or -18

i.e length = 12 and width = 6 + 18 = 18

(2.5 points) The probability that an airplane accident which is due to structural failure is diagnosed correctly is 0.85 and the
Nikitich [7]

Answer: 0.51

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a conditional probability. The first event is the airplane accident being caused by structural failure. The probability of it being due to structural failure is 0.3 and the probability of it not being due to structural failure is 0.7. The second event involves the diagnosis of the event. If a plane fails due to structural failure, the probability that it will be diagnosed and the results will say it was due to structural failure is 0.85, and the probability that the diagnosis is unable to identify that it was because of a structural failure is 0.15. If the plane were to fail as a result of some other reason aside structural failure, the probability that the diagnosis will show that it was as a result of structural failure is 0.35 and the probability of the diagnosis showing that is is not as a result of structural failure is 0.65. To find the probability that an airplane failed due to structural failure given that it was diagnosed that it failed due to some malfunction, this is the equation;

p = (probability of plane failing and diagnosis reporting that the failure was due to structural failure)/ (probability of diagnosis reporting that failure was due to structural failure)

p = (0.3*0.85)/((0.3*0.85) + (0.7*0.35))

p = 0.51
