The Westside Bakery uses 310 pounds of flour to make 1,000 loaves of bread. Each loaf

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

310 / 1000 = 0.31 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing by a number that is 1 less 0 than how many digits the number has, we can move the decimal point the number of times zero is repeated at the end of the number.

1000 has 3 zeroes, so we move the decimal point 3 moves to the left.

So, we do this:

After 0 moves: 310

After 1 move: 31.0

After 2 moves: 3.10

After 3 moves = 0.310

0.310 is the same as 0.31

Therefore, 0.31 pounds of flour are in each loaf.

WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST!!! 5. A 2011 study by The National Safety Council estimated that there are nearly 5.7 million traffic ac

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

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