Answer:
- <em>The probability that the second favorite character will die given that the first favorite character dies is</em><u> 0.53</u>
- <u>This kind of probability is called conditional probability</u>
Explanation:
Name the events and their probabiities:
- Event A: her favorite character will survive, so P (A) = 0.70
- Event B: her her second favorite character will die, so P(B) = 0.75
- Both characters will die ⇒ P (B and not A) = 0.16
You want to find P (B | not A).
That is the probability of the succes B (the second favorite character will die) given other event (not A or the first favorite character dies) is certain (it happens) and that is called conditional probability.
- P (not A) is the complement probability of A, so P (not A) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3
So, you have P(B), P(not A) and want to find P (B | not A)
The definition of conditional probability is:
- P (X | Y) = P (X and Y) / P (Y)
So, replacing with our terms, we get:
- P ( B | not A) = P (B and not A) / P (not A) = 0.16 / 0.3 ≈ 0.53

Step-by-step explanation:
this creates a right-angled triangle.
the right angle (90°) being the angle between flag pole and ground.
the angle ground-wire is 50°.
because we know that the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180°, we know then that the angle flagpole-wire is
180 - 90 - 50 = 40°
so, we have the situation to know 1 side and all angles.
to get the other sides we use best the law of sine :
a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
where the sides and related angles are always opposite of each other.
in our case now we have
24/sin(50) = wire/sin(90) = wire/1 = wire = 31.32977494... ft
so, the rounded answer is that the wire must be
31.3 ft long
Answer:
xx=-0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
not sure if this is right because the 12xx is kind of strange
12xx+16-1=0
12xx+15=0
12xx=-15
12/12xx=12/-15
xx=-.8
