Answer:

The probability that a car that comes into the garage needs both an oil change and a tire rotation is \frac{12}{35}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditional probability of an event <em>B</em> given that another event <em>A</em> has already occurred is:

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

Denote the events as follows:

<em>X</em> = cars brought in for service need an oil change

<em>Y</em> = cars brought in for service need a tire rotation

The information provided is:

P(X)=\frac{3}{5}

P(Y|X)=\frac{4}{7}

Compute the value of P (X ∩ Y) as follows:

   P(Y|X)=\frac{P(X\cap Y)}{P(X)}

             \frac{4}{7}=\frac{P(X\cap Y)}{3/5}

P(X\cap Y)=\frac{4}{7}\times \frac{3}{5}

                =\frac{12}{35}

Thus, the probability that a car that comes into the garage needs both an oil change and a tire rotation is \frac{12}{35}.

What is the equation of the circle with center (0, 0) that passes through the point (5, -4)?
Katyanochek1 [597]
The standard form of a circle is (x-h) ^{2} +(y-k) ^{2} = r^{2} where h and k are the center and x and y are the coordinates you're given.  We need to solve for the radius to finish this off correctly.  Filling in, we have (5-0) ^{2} +(-4-0) ^{2} = r^{2} and 25+16= r^{2}, giving us that r^{2}=41.  Therefore, our equation is x^{2} + y^{2} =41

trapecia [35]

Answer:

(24, 224 ) i.e. 24 basketball and 224 footballs

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Basketball :</em>

uses 4 ounces of foam

20 minutes of labor

profit = $2.50

<em>Football :</em>

uses 3 ounces of foam

30 minutes of labor

profit = $2

Manufacturer has :

768 ounces of foam , 120 labor hours per week,

<u>using the simplex method to determine the optimal production schedule so as to maximize profits </u>

lets assume

x = number of basketball

y = number of footballs

maximize = 2.5 x + 2y  from a linear programming problem

attached below is the detailed solution
