Answer: C. Stevens base pay


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Steven works at a large home appliance store. He earns a base salary of $20,000 plus commission which can be modeled by the equation .

y=0.1x+20,000

To find the y-intercept, put x=0 in the above equation, we get.

y=0.1(0)+20,000=20,000.........> which is his base salary.

Hence, the meaning of y-intercept in the equation is Stevens base pay.

ABC Auto Insurance classifies drivers as good, medium, or poor risks. Drivers who apply to them for insurance fall into these th
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

a.P(E_1/A)=0.0789

b.P(E_2/A)=0.395\

c.P(E_3/A)=0.526

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E_1,E_2,E_3 are the events that denotes the good drive, medium drive and poor risk driver.

P(E_1)=0.30,P(E_2)=0.50,P(E_3)=0.20

Let A be the event that denotes an accident.

P(A/E_1)=0.01

P(A/E_2=0.03

P(A/E_3)=0.10

The company sells Mr. Brophyan insurance policy and he has an accident.

a.We have to find the probability Mr.Brophy is a good driver

Bayes theorem,P(E_i/A)=\frac{P(A/E_i)\cdot P(E_1)}{\sum_{i=1}^{i=n}P(A/E_i)\cdot P(E_i)}

We have to find P(E_1/A)

Using the Bayes theorem

P(E_1/A)=\frac{P(A/E_1)\cdot P(E_1)}{P(E_1)\cdot P(A/E_1)+P(E_2)P(A/E_2)+P(E_3)P(A/E_3)}

Substitute the values then we get

P(E_1/A)=\frac{0.30\times 0.01}{0.01\times 0.30+0.50\times 0.03+0.20\times 0.10}

P(E_1/A)=0.0789

b.We have to find the probability Mr.Brophy is a medium driver

P(E_2/A)=\frac{0.03\times 0.50}{0.038}=0.395

c.We have to find the probability Mr.Brophy is a poor driver

P(E_3/A)=\frac{0.20\times 0.10}{0.038}=0.526

Circle O and triangle OQR are shown below. What is the length of OQ?
zysi [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is inscribed in an equilateral triangle PQR with centre O. If angle OQR = 30°, what is the perimeter of the triangle?

This is a circle inscribed in an equilateral triangle with side s.

If you are asking for the perimeter of PQR, it is 3s.

If you are asking for the perimeter of OQR, it is (3+23–√3)s

Since OR and SR are the hypotenuses of right triangles with adjacent side equal to ½ s, their length is ½s / cos 30° = (√3) /3.

(3/3)s + ((√3) /3)s + ((√3) /3)s = ((3 + 2√3)/3)s ≈ 2.1547s

Hope it helps
