Answer:
0.8594
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a denote the event of forgetting to shut off machine and b be the event of being defective.
-A foreman forgets to shut off machine 55% of the time.
-If he forgets, 15% of molds are defective.
-If he does not, 3% of molds are defective.
#The probability that he forgot to shut off the machine is calculated as:
P(a and ~b)=0.55(1-0.15)=0.4675
P(~a and b) = (1-0.55)*0.03=0.0135
P(~a and ~b) = (1-0.55)*(1-0.03)=0.4365
#Conditional probability is defined as:
Hence, the probability that the foreman forgot to shut off the machine the previous night is 0.8594
Answer:
Carmen bought 5 pounds of coffee
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of buying coffee is $8.44 per pound. Let us assume she bought x pound of coffee, this means that she spent $8.44x on coffee.
She went to the coffee store with $80 gift card and left with $37.80, this means that after spending $8.44x from the initial $80, she had $37.80. To find the number of pounds she bought, we are to use the following equation:
80 - 8.44x = 37.80
8.44x = 80 - 37.80
8.44x = 42.2
x = 42.2/ 8.44 = 5
x = 5 pounds.

The aides of a right triangle will always satisfy the Pythagorean relationship ...
a² + b²= c²
We can take each of these and try it out:
(1) ... 10² + 24² = 100 + 576 = 676
√676 = <em>26 Yes</em>.
(2) ... 12² + 18² = 144 + 324 = 468
√468 = 21.6, not 20. <em>No.</em>
(3) ... 15² + 26² = 225 + 676 = 901
√901 = 30.017 Awfully close. As an engineer, I'll buy this one. <em>Yes.</em>
(4) ... 40² + 50² = 1,600 + 2,500 = 4,100
√4,100 = 64.03, not 80.<em> No.</em>
