<span>The <u>correct answer</u> is:

0.06.

Explanation<span>:

The probabilities of the first block having an error and the second block having an error are independent; one block having an error does not affect the probability of the second block having an error.

Since they are independent, to find the probability of both occurring, we simply multiply the probabilities:

0.2(0.3) = 0.06.</span></span>

To work out the probability of both errors occuring, simply multiply the probability of the first error by the probability of the second error. Therefore the probability of both errors occurring is 0.2 * 0.3  =  0.06.

erma4kov [3.2K]


In first 40 hours he earns = 7.30 x 40 = $292
Each hour after his rate = 7.20 x 1.5 = $10.80 per hour
In extra four hours he earns = 10.80 x 4 =  $43.20 

Total earnings = $292 + $43.20 = $335.20

The length of a rectangle is 1 ft less than double the width, and the area of the rectangle is 21 ft^2. Find the dimensions of t
ICE Princess25 [194]

Let the width be w, then length = 2w - 1

Area = length times width = w(2w - 1) = 21.

Thus, 2w^2 - w = 21 or 2w^2 - w - 21 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation gives that w = 3.5.

Therefore, width is 3.5 ft and length is 2(3.5) - 1 = 6 ft.
