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

Answer:

<em>f(2)=-2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Values of a function from a graph</u>

The graph of a function is usually a drawn line that joins a number of points that correspond to the ordered pairs (x,y), where x is a given value, and y is the value calculated through the rule of the function, usually a formula or equation.

If we want to know the value for a specific value of x, we find the corresponding x-coordinate, draw an imaginary vertical line until we meet the graph. The value of y at that point is the required value of the function.

For example, for x=0 the graph crosses the y-axis at y=2, thus the ordered pair is (0,2), and f(0)=2.

For x=2, the function has a value of y=-2, thus:

f(2)=-2

Can a positive and negative number be equivalent<br> and plz explain you know it
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Yes! See explanation below!

Step-by-step explanation:

If a positive and negative number is equivalent, then they are called additive opposites meaning they add up to 0, basically cancelling out.

Ex:

1+-1=0\\1000000+-1000000=0\\\frac{1234}{1234}+-\frac{1234}{1234}=0
