Answer:

Probability that the company wins project A or project B is 0.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a company is bidding on two projects, A and B. The probability that the company wins project A is 0.40 and the probability that the company wins project B is 0.25.

Also, Winning project A and winning project B are independent events.

Let the Probability of winning project A = P(A) = 0.40

            Probability of winning project B = P(B) = 0.25

<u>Now, as we know that ;</u>

Probability that the company wins project A or project B = P(A \bigcup B)

              P(A \bigcup B) = P(A) + P(B) -  P(A \bigcap B)

So, we have to find the value of Probability of winning project A and B, i.e;

P(A \bigcap B)

<em>Since, we are given that Winning project A and winning project B are independent events which means when this condition is given then;</em>

                    P(A \bigcap B) = P(A) \times P(B)

                                    = 0.40 \times 0.25 = 0.10

Now, Probability that the company wins project A or project B is given by;

                 P(A \bigcup B) = P(A) + P(B) -  P(A \bigcap B)  

                                  = 0.40 + 0.25 - 0.10

                                  = 0.65 - 0.10 = 0.55

Hence, probability that the company wins project A or project B is 0.50.

Michael rotates ABC to form the image A'B'C'. The table shows the corresponding vertices for ABC and AA'B'C'. What degree of rot
babunello [35]

Answer:

90 degree rotation in the clockwise direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point A transforms to A'

- that is x coordinate: 2 ---> 3

and y coordinate   3 ---> -2

So the rotation is clockwise from Quadrant1 to Quadrant 4.

The slope of OA = 3/2 and the slope of OA' = -2/3.

The product of these slopes = 3/2 * -2/3 = -1 so the lines are perpendicular - that is the line has passed through an angle of 90 degrees.

A similar result occurs if we consider points B, C and D.

Mis wants to earn 2,000 in her job at a bicycle store. She is paid $55 for each bicycle she tunes up. The minimum number of bicy
Natali [406]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ok. you said 2000 and 2500 so I'll just solve for both.

this is very simple, mis/mia wants to earn 2000/2500 so let's solve

this can be done two ways. an equation way, or a dividing way. I personally like the dividing way.

2000 divided by 55= 36.36-- so she will have to tune up 37 bicycles

2500 divided by 55= 45.45-- so she will have to tune 46 bicycles. this is because 46 bicycles, times the amount of money == just a little over 2500 so she has reached  her goal
