In probability, an "or" means adding the probabilities, and an "and" means multiplying them.
The probability of Komets losing is 100-47 = 53% = .53. The probability of the Galaxy winning is 22% = .22.
Therefore, the probability of Komet losing AND Galaxy winning is

.53 × .22 = .1166

Answer: There is probability of approximately 12% that Komets losing their race and the Galaxy winning their game.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of the Galaxy team wins = 22%

Probability of the Komets team wins = 47%

So, Probability of the Komets losing their race is given by

100-47=53\%

We need to find the probability of the Komets losing their and the Galaxy winning their game .

Let Event K : Komets losing their game

Event G : Galaxy winning their game

Since these are two independent events,

So,

P(K\cap G)=P(K).P(G)\\\\P(K\cap G)=0.22\times 0.53\\\\P(K\cap G)=0.1166=0.12=12\%

So, there is probability of 12% that Komets losing their race and the Galaxy winning their game.

Write the standard equation of the circle with the given center and passes through the given point. Center (7,-2); Point= (1,-6)
vodomira [7]

Answer:

(x - 7)² + (y + 2)² = (2√13)²

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know that the center is at (7, -2), but must find the radius.  The radius is the distance between the points (7, -2) and (1, -6):

r = √ [6² + 4²] ) = √(36 + 16) = √52 = √4√13 = 2√13.

Then the desired equation is (x - 7)² + (y + 2)² = (2√13)²

One leg of a right triangle has a length of 5m. The other sides have lengths that are consecutive integers. Find these lengths.
pickupchik [31]

The lengths of the other two sides of the right triangle are 12 and 13

<h3>Pythagorean theorem </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the lengths of the other sides of the triangle

From the given information,

The other sides have lengths that are consecutive integers

Thus,

If the length of the other side is x

Then,

The hypotenuse will be x + 1

By the <em>Pythagorean theorem</em>, we can write that

(x+1)² = x² + 5²

(x+1)(x+1) = x² + 25

x² + x + x + 1 = x² + 25

x² - x² + x + x = 25 - 1

2x = 24

x = 24/2

x = 12

∴ The other leg of the right triangle is 12

Hypotenuse = x + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

Hence, the lengths of the other two sides are 12 and 13
