When the author observed a sobriety checkpoint conducted by the Dutchess County Sheriff Department, he saw that 676 drivers were

screened and 6 were arrested for dri vi ng while intoxicated. Based on those​ results, we can estimate that P(I) = 0.00589​, where W denotes the event of screening a driver and getting someone who is intoxicated. What does P(I¯) ​denote, and what is its​ value?

Answer:

The probability of drivers who are not intoxicated is P(I¯) and is given as 0.99411.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the event is indicated as I for the drivers who are intoxicated, the value of I¯ is for the drivers who are not intoxicated. Its value is calculated as follows

P(I¯)=1-P(I)

P(I¯)=1-0.00589

P(I¯)=0.99411

So the probability of drivers who are not intoxicated is P(I¯) and is given as 0.99411.

Imagine a world in which only decimals, not fractions, are used. How would your life be different?
nataly862011 [7]
I used to hate fractions. But in time, you learn to love them. This is because there's a big difference between fractions and decimals, even though when you divide the actual fraction it comes out to a decimal. Decimals go on and on sometimes, and it would be impossible to write out all those numbers, especially when taking a timed test, for example. Fractions, in this case, would be much more useful (as long as you know how to use them to your advantage). Fractions are basically all those decimal numbers wrapped up into a single, simple division. It makes the outcome of your answer much more accurate than if you estimate every decimal you get throughout a math problem. The more you estimate throughout the problem-solving process, the less accurate your final answer will be. Hence why teachers will usually tell you to estimate when you're putting down the final answer. Fractions are complex at times, so it may be easier to use them in decimal form for certain situations (especially if the decimal form is short and sweet). A world without fractions will result in many, many inaccurate situations involving mathematical knowledge.

A store sells grass seed in small bags and large bags. The small bags have 7 pounds of seed for $27.93 and the large bags have 2
Arada [10]

Answer:

The 20 pound bag is a better by for only $66.98

Step-by-step explanation:

The large bag is better because the small bag is $27.93 for 7 pounds 7x3=21,so 3x27.93=83.79 is $16.81 more than the cost for the large bag

hope this makes sense;)

Law of cosines <br><br> HELP MES
Lorico [155]

Answer:

70.52 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the angles, we must first find the lengths of each side of the triangle. Adding up the respective radii, we can see that

XY = 5+4 = 9 CM

XZ = 6+5 = 11 CM

ZY = 4+6 = 10 CM

Now we can apply the cosine rule

C\:=\:\sqrt{A^2+B^2-2ABcosx}

We need to rearrange the rule to solve for x, our missing angle

x\:=\:cos^{-1}\left(\frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{2ab}\right)

solving for our unknown angle:

x\:=\:cos^{-1}\left(\frac{9^2+10^2-11^2}{2\cdot 9\cdot 10}\right)

x\:=\:70.52^{\circ }

Therefore angle YXZ is 70.52 degrees
