Can someone please explain this question? I have a pic

Mathematics
1 answer:
Verdich [7]3 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

recall in a linear equation expressed in the form

y = mx + b,

m represents the slope or the rate of change in the value of y for a unit change in the value of x

b represents the y-intercept (i.e the value of y when x = 0)

If you compare these definitions to what was given in the question, the rate of  change in snowfall is given as 1/2 inches per hour. This is equivalent to the m value in our general equation above. Hence we can say that the rate of change in snowfall is equal to the slope of the graph.

The question also states that before the snow even started to fall (i.e when x=0 hours), there was already 8 inches on the ground. This is equivalent to the value of b in our general equation above. Hence we can say that the y-intercept is representative of the 8 inches that was already on the ground when the snow started falling.

Explain why P(A|D) and P(D|A) from the table below are not equal.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The two conditional probabilities are not equal because each has different given events. P(A|D) has event D as its given event, resulting in 2/10 for a probability. P(D|A) has event A as its given event, resulting in 2/8 for a probability.

Other part is:

different given events

P(A|D) equals 2/10

P(D|A) equals 2/8

A random number generator is used to select a number from 1 to 100 what is the probability of selecting number 151
topjm [15]
0.

It is impossible for 151 to be selected, as it is outside the range of numbers (1 to 100) that can be selected. Therefore the probability is 0.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

There are 19 big marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

10a + 3b = 209

a = 3b

3b = 3b

10a + a = 209

11a = 209

a = 209/11

a = 19
