Two experiments are defined below. An event is defined for each of the experiments. Experiment I: Corrine rolls a standard six-s

ided die. Event A: Corrine rolls a number greater than three. Experiment II: Pablo flips a fair coin twice. Event B: Pablo notes heads on the first flip and tails on the second flip. Which statement about Event A and Event B is true? A. It is not possible to determine which event is more likely. B. Event A is less likely to occur than Event B. C. Both events are equally likely to occur. D. Event A is more likely to occur than Event B.

Answer: The correct answer is option C: Both events are equally likely to occur

Step-by-step explanation: For the first experiment, Corrine has a six-sided die, which means there is a total of six possible outcomes altogether. In her experiment, Corrine rolls a number greater than three. The number of events that satisfies this condition in her experiment are the numbers four, five and six (that is, 3 events). Hence the probability can be calculated as follows;

P(>3) = Number of required outcomes/Number of possible outcomes

P(>3) = 3/6

P(>3) = 1/2 or 0.5

Therefore the probability of rolling a number greater than three is 0.5 or 50%.

For the second experiment, Pablo notes heads on the first flip of a coin and then tails on the second flip. for a coin there are two outcomes in total, so the probability of the coin landing on a head is equal to the probability of the coin landing on a tail. Hence the probability can be calculated as follows;

P(Head) = Number of required outcomes/Number of all possible outcomes

P(Head) = 1/2

P(Head) = 0.5

Therefore the probability of landing on a head is 0.5 or 50%. (Note that the probability of landing on  a tail is equally 0.5 or 50%)

From these results we can conclude that in both experiments , both events are equally likely to occur.

The following table shows the number of feet a bird flies above the ground as a function of time: (In the picture)
Otrada [13]

Answer:

  D.)  (14, 0); the time it takes for the bird to reach the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached graph shows a plot of the table values and the two offered solution options.

The dependent variable in this scenario is the bird's height above the ground. When that is zero, the bird is on the ground. This fact makes choices B and C seem ridiculous.

We note from the table and graph that the bird is on a path that decreases in height by 3 feet every 2 seconds. If the bird continues that rate of descent, it will reach the ground after 14 seconds.

That is, its (time, height) pair will be (14, 0), matching choice D.

_____

Choosing any answer to this question requires making assumptions that are inconsistent with real-world bird behavior. At least, the problem statement should say what assumptions are applicable.

Find the center and radius of the circle represented by the equation below.
valina [46]

Answer:

radius 4

center (3,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

coordinates of the center (h, k) and the radius is (r)

x² + y²- 6x - 12y +29=0

x² - 6x + y²- 12y +29=0

(x² - 6x) + (y²- 12y) +29=0

complete the square

(x² - 6x) + 9 + (y²- 12y) +36 +29=  + 9  +36

(x² - 6x + 9) + (y²- 12y + 36) = + 9  +36 -29

(x-3)^2 + (y-6)^2 = 16

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

coordinates of the center (h, k) and the radius is (r)

center (3,6)

radius 4

Bad gums may mean a bad heart. Researchers discovered that 82% of people who have suffered a heart attack had periodontal diseas
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

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

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question:

Event A: Periodontal disease

Event B: Heart attack

Researchers discovered that 82% of people who have suffered a heart attack had periodontal disease, an inflammation of the gums.

This means that P(A|B) = 0.82

Only 33% of healthy people have this disease.

This means that P(A) = 0.33

Suppose that in a certain community heart attacks are quite rare, occurring with only 15% probability.

This means that P(B) = 0.15

If someone has periodontal disease, what is the probability that he or she will have a heart attack

P(B|A) = \frac{0.15*0.82}{0.33} = 0.3727

37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.
