Answer:

The probability that Joe's stock will go up and he will win in the lottery  is 0.00005.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the events be denoted as:

<em>X</em> = the stock goes up

<em>Y</em> = Joe wins the lottery

Given:

P (X) = 0.50

P (Y) = 0.0001

The events of the stock going up is not dependent on the the event of Joe winning the lottery.

So the events <em>X</em> and <em>Y</em> are independent of each other.

Independent events are those events that can occur together at the same time.

The joint probability of two independent events <em>A</em> and <em>B </em>is,

P(A\cap B)=P(A)\times P(B)

Compute the value of P (<em>X ∩ Y</em>) as follows:

P(X\cap Y)=P(X)\times P(Y)=0.50\times 0.0001=0.00005

Thus, the probability that Joe's stock will go up and he will win in the lottery  is 0.00005.

A conical container can hold 120π cubic centimeters of water. The diameter of the base of the container is 12 centimeters.
Tanzania [10]

Answer: The height of the container is 10 centimeters. If its diameter and height were both doubled, the container's capacity would be 8 times its original capacity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone can be calculated with this formula:

V=\frac{\pi r^2h}{3}

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height.

We know that the radius is half the diameter. Then:

r=\frac{12cm}{2}=6cm

We know the volume and the radius of the conical container, then we can find "h":

120\pi cm^3=\frac{\pi (6cm)^2h}{3}\\\\(3)(120\pi cm^3)=\pi (6cm)^2h\\\\h=\frac{3(120\pi cm^3)}{\pi (6cm)^2}\\\\h=10cm

The diameter and height doubled are:

d=12cm*2=24cm\\h=10cm*2=20cm

Now the radius is:

r=\frac{24cm}{2}=12cm

And the container capacity is

V=\frac{\pi (12cm)^2(20cm)}{3}=960\pi cm^3

Then, to compare the capacities, we can divide this new capacity by the original:

 \frac{960\pi cm^3}{120\pi cm^3}=8

Therefore,  the container's capacity would be 8 times its original capacity.
