Let V be the event that a computer contains a virus, and let W be the event that a computer contains a worm. Suppose P(V) = 0.17

, P(W) = 0.05 , and P(V and W) = 0.04 . What is the probability that the computer contains neither a virus nor a worm?

Answer: 0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the computer not containing neither a virus nor a worm is expressed as P(V^{C}∩W^{C}) , where P(V^{C}) is the probability that the event V doesn't happen and P(W^{C}) is the probability that the event W doesn't happen.

P(V^{C})= 1-P(V) = 1-0.17 = 0.83

P(W^{C})=1-P(W) = 1-0.05 = 0.95

Since V^{C} and W^{C} aren't mutually exclusive events, then:

P(V^{C}∪W^{C}) = P(V^{C}) + P(W^{C}) - P(V^{C}∩W^{C})

Isolating the probability that interests us:

P(V^{C}∩W^{C})= P(V^{C}) + P(W^{C}) - P(V^{C}∪W^{C})

Where P(V^{C}∪W^{C}) = 1 - 0.04 = 0.96

Finally:

P(V^{C}∩W^{C}) = 0.83 + 0.95 - 0.96 = 0.82

The ice cream parlor serves spherical scoops of ice cream with a radius of 1 in. What is the approximate volume of 2 scoops of i
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: 8.37 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Shape of icre cream scoop = sphere

Radius (r) = 1 inch

Volume of a scoop of icecream = volume of sphere :

4/3πr³

(4/3) × 3.14 × 1³

1.333 × 3.14 × 1

= 4.1867 in³

Hence, the volume of 2 scoops of ice cream will be :

2 × ( volume of a scoop of ice cream)

(2 × 4.1867) in³

= 8.37 in³

Graph the following inequality. Click on the graph until the correct one appears.
exis [7]

Answer:     Its the first one

You draw the graph of the line y=3x+5

but make the line dotted.

Label the line y>3x+5

Note that if instead we hade y≥3x+5 the line would be solid.

If you draw a line parallel to the y-axis through any x-value the value of y can be any on that vertical line that is above but not on the line y=3x+5

. So you end up with a 'feasible' region of solutions for y

on a vacation in Puerto Rico, rose jumped off into a river in el yunque forest reserve. her height as a function of time could b
hoa [83]
The main assumption here is that the height at the water level is 0.

So, the answer is given by the solution to the equation

- 16t^2 + 16t + 480 = 0

To solve it, start dividing by -16 to get:

t^2 - t - 30 = 0.

Now factor the left side:

(t -  ) (t +  ) =0

Find two numbers that add - 1 and its product is -30

(t -  6 ) (t + 5 ) =0

That gives:

t - 6 = 0 ⇒ t = 6 seconds

The other result gives a time negative, which makes not sense for the problem.

Verify substituing 6 in the original equation:

h(6) = -16*6^2 + 16*6 + 480 = -576 + 96 + 480 = 0. Lo cual confirma nuestra solucion.
 
It toke Rose 6 seconds to hit the water.

Daniel rollerbladed 3 miles in 12 minutes. At this rate, how many miles will he rollerblade in 1 hour? Show your work.
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Daniel is rollerblading at 15 miles per hour

Daniel can go 3 miles in 12 minutes so we do 12÷3 to find out how many minutes it takes to go 1 mile which is 4 now we do 60÷4 to get 15

Alternatively we could do 60÷12 to get 5 then do 3×5 to get 15
