Answer:

a) 76% probability that Joe is early tomorrow.

b) 64.47% conditional probability that it rained

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 70% probability that it will rain tomorrow.

A 30% probability that it does not rain tomorrow.

If it rains, a 30% probability that Joe is late and a 100-30 = 70% probability that Joe is early.

if it does not rain, a 10% probability that Joe is late and a 100-10 = 90% probability that Joe is early.

(a) Find the probability that Joe is early tomorrow.

Either it rains(70% probability) and he is early(70% probability when it rains), or it does not rain(30% probability) and he is early(90% probability when it does not rain). So

P = 0.7*0.7 + 0.3*0.9 = 0.76

76% probability that Joe is early tomorrow.

(b) Given that Joe was early, what is the conditional probability that it rained?

By the Bayes theorem, this probability is:

The probability that it rained and he was early divided by the probability he was early.

Rained and early

70% probability it rains.

70% probability he is early when it rains.

0.7*0.7 = 0.49

Early

From a), 0.76

Probability

P = \frac{0.49}{0.76} = 0.6447

64.47% conditional probability that it rained

A company sells tents in two styles, shown below. The sides and floor of each tent are made of nylon. Which tent requires less n
BartSMP [9]

Answer:  Tunnel tent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tent which has the minimum area requires less nylon to manufacture,

Since, the area of Pup tent = Area of 3 square each having side 8 ft + Area of 2 equilateral triangle having side 8 ft

= 3 \times ( 8^2 ) + 2\times \frac{64\sqrt{ 3} }{4}

=  192+ 2\times \frac{64\sqrt{ 3} }{4}

= 192+ 32\sqrt{ 3}

= 247.425625842\approx 247.43\text { square ft}

Now, the area of tunnel tent = Area of square having side 8 ft + total Area of half cylinder having radius 4 ft and height 8 ft

= 8^2 + \frac{1}{2} [ 2\pi\times 4(4+8)]

= 64 + \pi\times 48

= 64 + 3.14\times 48

= 214.72\text { square ft}

Since, 214.72 < 247.43

Thus, Tunnel tent requires less nylon to manufacture.

Jim runs 12 miles in 4 hours how many feet does he run per minute
hjlf

h= number of hours

m= number of miles

Formula: 4h=12m

(4 hours equals 12 miles)

Divide 4 on each side.

h= 3m

3 miles per hour.

Then, convert miles to feet. And hours to minute.

To do this simultaneously,

Convert miles to feet and hours to minutes.

There should be 3 "fractions" to multiply.

The first should be the original problem:

3miles/1 hour. (3 miles per hour).

The second should be 1 hour/60min. (1 hour per 60 min).

The third should be 5280 ft/1 mile. (5280 feet per mile).

The second and the third fractions are to convert miles to feet and the hours to minutes.

Work out the size angles x,y and z​
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

x = y = 14

z = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see from the markings, x = y

So we have an isosceles triangle in ABD

the sum of angles in a triangle is 180

52 + x + y = 180

x + y = 180-52

x + y = 28

so since x = y

x = y = 14

To get z, we have that;

52 + z + 14 + 44 = 180

z + 110 = 180

z = 180-110

z = 70
