Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:Absolute value is a number's distance away from zero. For example, on a number line, -9 is 9 spaces away from zero. So, the absolut value is 9. Similarly, the number 9 is also 9 spaces from zero, so the absolute value would be 9. 9 and -9 both have an absolute value of 9. I hope this is helpful!

Una bolsa contiene 4 canicas azules, 4 canicas rojas y 4 canicas verdes. Sacas aleatoriamente una canica y luego otra (sin reemp

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

la probabilidad es 1/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Hay 4+4+4 = 12 canicas en total en la bolsa.

Pues la posibilidad de sacar una canica azul en el principio es 4/12 o 1/3.

Y luego, no reemplaces la canica, y hay 11 canicas en total.

Por eso la posibilidad de sacar otra canica azul después es 3/11.

Son eventos independientes, y tenemos que multiplicarlos para tener la respuesta.

1/3 * 3/11 = 1/11

Suppose on a certain planet that a rare substance known as Raritanium can be found in some of the rocks. A raritanium-detector i

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

0.967 = 96.7% probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Positive reading

Event B: Contains raritanium

Probability of a positive reading:

98% of 13%(positive when there is raritanium).

0.5% of 100-13 = 87%(false positive, positive when there is no raritanium). So

$P(A) = 0.98*0.13 + 0.005*0.87 = 0.13175$

Positive when there is raritanium:

98% of 13%

$P(A) = 0.98*0.13 = 0.1274$

What is the probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium?

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1274}{0.13175} = 0.967$

0.967 = 96.7% probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium

Given the equation 7(x + 2) = 2x − 1, solve for the variable. Explain each step and justify your process. Jeff solved a similar

Galina-37 [17]

You have to distribute the 7 to x and 2 so :
7x+14=2x-1
Add one to both sides (inverse operations)
7x+14=2x-1
+1 +1
7x+15=2x
Cross Cancel by subtracting 7x from both sides
7x+15=2x
-7x -7x
15=-5x
Divide by -5
15/-5= -5/-5
X= -3

The ratio of cassette to compact disc is 10 to 3 and the number of cassettes is 10 less than 5 times the number of compact discs

OlgaM077 [116]

There are 20 cassettes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Ratio of cassette to compact disc = 10:3

Let,

the number of cassettes = 10x

Number of compact disc = 3x

According to given statement;

the number of cassettes is 10 less than 5 times the number of compact discs.

10x = 5(Number of CD) - 10

$10x=3(5x)-10 \\10x=15x-10\\10=15x-10x\\10=5x\\5x=10$

Dividing both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{10}{5}\\x=2$

Number of cassettes= 10x = 10(2) = 20

There are 20 cassettes.
