PLEASE HELP! The table shows the number of championships won by the baseball and softball leagues of three youth baseball divisi

ons organized by age groups.
Baseball League (B) Softball League (S)

Ages 7 – 9 (X) 3 7

Ages 10 – 12 (Y) 2 2

Ages 13 – 15 (Z) 1 1



Question 1:
If the winning team plays in the Ages 10 - 12 division, find the probability that the team is in the Baseball League. Answer in terms of a reduced fraction.

P(B|Y) =

Question 2:
If the winner is in Baseball League, find the probability that the winning team is in either the Ages 10 - 12 division or the Ages 13 - 15 division. Answer in terms of a reduced fraction. (this is a three part question)

A. P(Y | B) =
B. P(Z | B) =
C. P(Y or Z |B) =



Please answer ALL of these questions. Good Luck!

Answer:

Question 1: P ( B | Y ) = \frac{ P ( B and Y)}{ P (Y)} = \frac{ \frac{2}{16}}{ \frac{4}{16}} = \frac{1}{2}

Question 2:

A. P ( Y | B ) = \frac{ P(Y and B) }{ P(B) } = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{3}

B. P( Z | B ) = \frac{ P ( Z and B)}{ P (B)}= \frac{ \frac{1}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{6}

C. P((Y or Z)|B) = \frac{ P ((Y or Z) and B)}{P(B)}= \frac{ \frac{3}{16}}{ \frac{6}{16}}= \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional probability is defined by

P(A|B)= \frac{P(A and B)}{P(B)}

with P(A and B) beeing the probability of both events occurring simultaneously.

Question 1:

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }

then

P( B and Y)= \frac{ 2 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

P ( B | Y ) = \frac{ P ( B and Y)}{ P (Y)} = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{4}{16} }  = \frac{1}{2}

Question 2.A:

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}

then

P( B and Y)= \frac{ 2 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

P ( Y | B ) = \frac{ P(Y and B) }{ P(B) } = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{3}

Question 2.B:

Z: Championships won by the 13 - 15 years old, beeing

P ( Z)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}

then

P( Z and B)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

P( Z | B ) = \frac{ P ( Z and B)}{ P (B)}= \frac{ \frac{1}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{6}

Question 3.B

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }

Z: Championships won by the 13 - 15 years old, beeing

P ( Z)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }

then

P (Y or Z) = P(Y) + P(Z) = \frac{6}{16}

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}

so

P((YorZ) and B)= \frac{3}{16}

By definition,

P((Y or Z)|B) = \frac{ P ((Y or Z) and B)}{P(B)}= \frac{ \frac{3}{16}}{ \frac{6}{16}}= \frac{1}{2}

Can you help me to solve this​
Ber [7]

Answer:

\frac{4a-2}{2a+1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorise the numerator and denominator

8a² - 2 ← factor out 2 from each term

= 2(4a² - 1) ← 4a² - 1 is a difference of squares

= 2(2a - 1)(2a + 1)

4a² + 4a + 1 ← is a perfect square

= (2a + 1)²

Thus

\frac{8a^2-2}{4a^2+4a+1}

= \frac{2(2a-1)(2a+1)}{(2a+1)(2a+1)} ← cancel (2a + 1) on numerator/ denominator

= \frac{2(2a-1)}{2a+1}

= \frac{4a-2}{2a+1}

A semicircular archway is built in front of a garden using 8 congruent granite tiles, as shown in the diagram. Find the area of
iris [78.8K]
Given: 
8 tiles
radius from the center of the archway to the inner edge of the tile. 7 ft.
radius from the center of the archway to the outer edge of the tile. 8 ft = 7 ft + 1 ft.

Area of a semi circle = π r² / 2 
A = (3.14 * (7ft)²) / 2 = (3.14 * 49ft²) / 2 = 153.86 ft² / 2 = 76.93 ft²
A = (3.14 * (8ft)²) / 2 = (3.14 * 64ft²) / 2 = 200.96 ft² / 2 = 100.48 ft²

100.48 ft² - 76.93 ft² = 23.55 ft²
23.55 ft² / 8 tiles = 2.94 ft² per tile.
