What’s the midpoint of the line segment joining A and B A(2,-5);B(6,1)

1 answer:

7 0

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ A(\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})\qquad B(\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1}) \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{6+2}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{1-5}{2} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{8}{4}~,~\cfrac{-4}{2} \right)\implies (4,-2)$

Answer:

7/80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: P(B) = 7 / 20, P(A|B)= 1 / 4

Bayes theorem is used to mathematically represent the conditional probability of an event A given B. According to Bayes theorem:

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

Where P(B) is the probability of event B occurring, P(A ∩ B) is the probability of event A and event B occurring and P(A|B) is the probability of event A occurring given event B.

$P(A|B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}\\\\P(A \cap B)=P(A|B)*P(B)\\\\Substituting:\\\\P(A \cap B)=1/4*7/20=7/80\\\\P(A \cap B)=7/80$
