Find P(C|Y) from the information in the table.<br><br><br><br> To the nearest tenth, P(C|Y) =

seropon [69]

From the definition of conditional probability,

$\mathbb P(C\mid Y)=\dfrac{\mathbb P(C\cap Y)}{\mathbb P(Y)}$

and by the law of total probability,

$\mathbb P(Y)=\mathbb P(Y\cap A)+\mathbb P(Y\cap B)+\mathbb P(Y\cap C)$

In other words, each cell in the grid left of and above the total column and row represents the joint probabilities (e.g. $\mathbb P(X\cap A)=\dfrac{32}{146}$ ). So,

$\mathbb P(C\mid Y)=\dfrac{15}{30}=\dfrac12=0.5$

Subtract. (5x2−3x−2)−(−2x2−x+10) Express the answer in standard form. Enter your answer in the box.

Answer:

$7x^{2}-2x-12=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The standard form of the quadratic equation is equal to $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

we have

$(5x^{2}-3x-2)-(-2x^{2}-x+10)$

eliminate the parenthesis

$5x^{2}-3x-2+2x^{2}+x-10$

group terms that contain the same variable

$(5x^{2}+2x^{2})+(-3x+x)+(-2-10)$

combine like terms

$7x^{2}-2x-12=0$
