With 10 to the power to a negative number, it's easier.
Here's a trick: The negative number is the places to the right of the decimal. The last number is a 1, while the rest are 0s.

From this, we get: $10^{-4}=\boxed{0.0001}$

Probabilities with possible states of nature: s1, s2, and s3. Suppose that you are given a decision situation with three possibl

amm1812

Answer:

1. $P(s_1|I)=\frac{1}{11}$

2. $P(s_2|I)=\frac{8}{11}$

3. $P(s_3|I)=\frac{2}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

$P(s_1)=0.1, P(s_2)=0.6, P(s_3)=0.3$

$P(I|s_1)=0.15,P(I|s_2)=0.2,P(I|s_3)=0.1$

(1)

We need to find the value of P(s₁|I).

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{P(I|s_1)P(s_1)}{P(I|s_1)P(s_1)+P(I|s_2)P(s_2)+P(I|s_3)P(s_3)}$

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{(0.15)(0.1)}{(0.15)(0.1)+(0.2)(0.6)+(0.1)(0.3)}$

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{0.015}{0.015+0.12+0.03}$

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{0.015}{0.165}$

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{1}{11}$

Therefore the value of P(s₁|I) is $\frac{1}{11}$ .

(2)

We need to find the value of P(s₂|I).

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{P(I|s_2)P(s_2)}{P(I|s_1)P(s_1)+P(I|s_2)P(s_2)+P(I|s_3)P(s_3)}$

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{(0.2)(0.6)}{(0.15)(0.1)+(0.2)(0.6)+(0.1)(0.3)}$

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{0.12}{0.015+0.12+0.03}$

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{0.12}{0.165}$

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{8}{11}$

Therefore the value of P(s₂|I) is $\frac{8}{11}$ .

(3)

We need to find the value of P(s₃|I).

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{P(I|s_3)P(s_3)}{P(I|s_1)P(s_1)+P(I|s_2)P(s_2)+P(I|s_3)P(s_3)}$

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{(0.1)(0.3)}{(0.15)(0.1)+(0.2)(0.6)+(0.1)(0.3)}$

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{0.03}{0.015+0.12+0.03}$

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{0.03}{0.165}$

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{2}{11}$

Therefore the value of P(s₃|I) is $\frac{2}{11}$ .

What is the measure of <br> A. Cannot be determined <br> B. 74<br> C. 16<br> D. 32

Levart [38]

The answer would be D. 32

Why? The triangle in the problem is an isosceles triangle. That means the two legs of the triangle are equal and the angle opposite to the equal legs are also equal.

Therefore, angle C is also 74°.

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.
Thus,
180° = ∡A + ∡B + ∡C
180° = 74° + ∡B + 74°
180° = 148° + ∡B
∡B = 180° - 148°
∡B = 32°

Find angle A and angle B..

ExtremeBDS [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{\bold{\blue{\underline{\underline{Given}}}}}$

$\tt{\angle{c}=110°}$

and,

$\tt{BC=AC}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\sf{\bold{\red{\underline{\underline{To\:Find}}}}}$

☆Find the $\angle{B} ~and~\angle{A}$

$\sf{\bold{\purple{\underline{\underline{Solution}}}}}$

Here,

BC =AC

so,

⠀⠀⠀

$\angle{A}=\angle{B}$

we know that,

$\tt{\boxed{\pink{\angle{A}+\angle{B}+\angle{C}=180°}}}$

But $\angle{C}=110°$ (Ģìvéñ)

so..

$\angle{A}+\angle{B}+110°=180°$

$\angle{A}+\angle{A}+110°=180°$

$\because{\angle{A}=\angle{B} }$

$2\angle{A}=180°-110°$

$2\angle{A}=70°$

$\angle{A}=\dfrac{70°}{2}$

$\boxed{\orange{\angle{A}=35°}}$

But...

$\angle{A}=\angle{B}$

soo,

$\boxed{\orange{\angle{B}=35°}}$

$\sf{\bold{\green{\underline{\underline{Answer}}}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\boxed{\green{\angle{A}=35°}}$

$\boxed{\green{\angle{B}=35°}}$
