Question:

Eric and Joshua are playing ping pong and pool. Joshua believes he has a good chance of beating Eric in at least one of the games. The probability Joshua beats Eric in ping pong is 0.48. The probability Joshua beats Eric in pool is 0.46. Joshua is willing to assume the probability of Eric winning a game of ping pong is independent of him winning a game of pool.

Find the probability:

The probability that Joshua beats Eric in ping pong AND pool?

The probability that Joshua beats Eric in ping pong OR pool?

Answer:

P(pp & pool) = 22%

There is 22% probability that Joshua beats Eric in ping pong AND pool.

P(pp OR pool) = 50%

There is 50% probability that Joshua beats Eric in ping pong OR pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability Joshua beats Eric in ping pong is given by

P(pp) = 0.48

The probability Joshua beats Eric in pool is given by

P(pool) = 0.46

The probability that Joshua beats Eric in ping pong AND pool is given by

P(pp & pool) = P(pp)×P(pool)

P(pp & pool) = 0.48×0.46

P(pp & pool) = 0.22

P(pp & pool) = 22%

Therefore, there is 22% probability that Joshua beats Eric in ping pong AND pool.

The probability that Joshua beats Eric in ping pong OR pool is given by

P(pp OR pool) = P(pp)×0.52 + P(pool)×0.54

Where 0.52 is the probability that Eric beats Joshua in the ping pong match (1 - 0.48 = 0.52)

Where 0.54 is the probability that Eric beats Joshua in the pool match (1 - 0.46 = 0.54)

P(pp OR pool) = 0.48×0.52 + 0.46×0.54

P(pp OR pool) = 0.25 + 0.25

P(pp OR pool) = 0.50

P(pp OR pool) = 50%

Therefore, there is 50% probability that Joshua beats Eric in ping pong OR pool.

What is the next value 4d 7g 10j 13
bearhunter [10]
13m 16p

Add three to every number next as well as move up three letters.

For example:
1A is the starting point.
To get from 1A to 4D you add three.

1 + 3 = 4
A to get to D is three letters up.
A b c D

Same thing for 4D to get to 7G.

4 +3 = 7
D to get to G
D e f G

Your answer:
I'm not sure if you wanted me to find the letter of the equation or the actual next part. On your question you have just 13 up there, no letter so if youre trying to find the letter (13m) is your answer.

If you're trying to find the next equation to the puzzle (16p) is your answer.

Hope this helped!:)

Answer:

x^3+3x^2+4x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so what helps me solve this kind of problem is to circle, underline, or box the like terms(the ones with the same exponent and variable). Be sure to note the sign of each term when combining like terms. take it one step at  a time, and work downwards starting with the highest exponent. You have -x^3 and +2x^3, which is x^3. Next, you have +2x^2 and +x^2, which is 3x^2. You should write down each of these as you go, so you should now have x^3+3x^2. Then combine the terms with no exponent but with x, which is 5x and -1x, which is +4x. You should have x^3+3x^2+4x now. Lastly, just combine the numbers 1, -1, and 5, which is 5. This gives you an answer of x^3+3x^2+4x+5.

Answer:

  10,466.7 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is given by ...

  V = (1/3)πr^2·h

where r is the radius and h is the height. Using your numbers, we have ...

  V = (1/3)(3.14)(20 in)^2·(25 in) = 10,466.7 in^3

_____

A more accurate value of π will give a different result.
