mestny [16]

Answer:

a. answer to a can be found in the attached file

b. Pr[survival] = Pr[good&survive]+Pr[medium&survive]+Pr[low&survive]=

0.24+0.06+0.05 = 0.35

c. Assume that the seed has a 0.2 chance of dying before it lands in a habitat. What is its  overall probability of survival?

Pr[survival] = Pr[survival|lands] * Pr[lands] = 0.35 * 0.2 = 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

"A seed randomly blows around a complex habitat. It may land on any of three different soil types: a high-quality soil that gives a 0.8 chance of seed survival, a medium-quality soil that gives a 0.3 chance of survival, and a low-quality soil that gives only a 0.1 chance of survival. These three soil types (high, medium, and low) are present in the habitat in proportions of 30:20:50, respectively. The probability that a seed lands on a particular soil type is proportional to the frequency of that type in the habitat. a. Draw a probability tree to determine the probabilities of survival under all possible circumstances. b. What is the probability of survival of the seed, assuming that it lands"c. Assume that the seed has a 0.2 chance of dying before it lands in a habitat. What is its overall probability of survival?

a. Find the probability tree as attached below

b. Pr[survival] = Pr[good&survive]+Pr[medium&survive]+Pr[low&survive]=

0.24+0.06+0.05 = 0.35

c. Assume that the seed has a 0.2 chance of dying before it lands in a habitat. What is its  overall probability of survival?

Pr[survival] = Pr[survival|lands] * Pr[lands] = 0.35 * 0.2 = 0.07

I want to install carpet in my living room, which is 200 inches long and 50 ft wide. The carpet is sold for 5000 naira per yard2
inn [45]

Answer:

462962.96 naira

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is complicated by the use of two different units.  I chose to use inches for the dimensions of the carpet.

200 in long

50 ft wide = 50 x 12 = 600 in.

Area = 200 x 600 = 120000 in^2

A square yard is a square 36 in. x 36 in. = 1296 in^2

Divide 120000 by 1296 to find out how many square yards of carpet you'll need.

120000 / 1296 = 92.59

Multiply by 5000 naira/yd^2 = 462962.96

Consider the linear system of equations. y = –x + 9 y = 0.5x – 6 If the solution is (a,–1), what is a? a =
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The value of a is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the following pair of the linear system of equations below;

y = -x+9  and   y = 0.5x-6.

Also, the solution is given as (a, -1).

To find the value of 'a', we have to substitute the solution in the equation because it is stated that (a, -1) is the solution of the given two equations.

So, the x coordinate value of the solution is a and the y coordinate value of the solution is (-1).

First, taking the equation;

y = -x+9

Put the value of x = a and y = -1;

(-1) = -(a) + 9

a = 9 + 1 = 10

Now, taking the second equation;

y = 0.5x-6

Put the value of x = a and y = -1;

(-1) = 0.5(a)-6

0.5a = 6 - 1

0.5a = 5

a=\frac{5}{0.5}

a = 10

Since we get the value of a = 10 from the equations, so the value of a is 10.
