Answer:

0.5556 or 55.56%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of getting an A in both tests, P(B), is 0.5, and the probability of getting an A in the first test, P(F), is 0.9, then the probability of getting an A on the second test, P(S) is:

P(B) = P(F)*P(S)\\0.5=0.9* P(S)\\P(S) = 0.5556=55.56\%

Given that a student has scored an A on the first test, the probability that the student will score an A on the second test is 0.5556 or 55.56%

Answer:

8h + 15 = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

The base fee is 15 so you shouldn't multiply the hours by it.

The question states 8 per hour which means that you should multiply the 8 by hours and add on the base fee which is 15.

The equation's X-y= 2, -2y=-2, X+ y = 2, and x+2y=-2 are shown on the graph below.
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

A.) x-y=2 and x+2y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

For option A, we have:

x-y=2

x+2y=-2

Subtract the first equation from the second, to get:

2y--y=-2-2

This implies that:

2y+y=-2-2

Simplify to get:

3y=-4

Divide both sides by 3 to get:

y =  -  \frac{4}{3}  =  - 1.3

We substitute y=-1.3 into the first equation to get:

x--1.3=2

x+1.3=2

x=2-1.3

x=0.7

The solution is (0.7,-1.3), which is approximately (0.7, -1.4)

By inspection, all the other factors have solutions not close to (0.7, -1.4)

Walt is mixing fruit punch for a party. He combines 1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints of orange juice 1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints of pinea
Vlad [161]
So he's mixing: 

1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints of orange juice
1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints of pineapple juice and
1 gallon 3 <span> quarts 3 pints of ginger ale

that's:

3 gallons 8 quarts and 13 pints.

2 pints make a quart, so 13 pints make 6 quarts and 1 pint, so actually it's:

</span><span>3 gallons 8+6=14 quarts and 1 pint.
4 quarts are a gallon, and 14 quarts are 3 gallons 2 quarts, so the final answer is:

</span>
<span>3+3=6 gallons 2 quarts and 1 pint. </span>

Use the following regression results to answer the remaining questions. Y measures average hourly earnings AHE in U.S. dollars f
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = 11.5 + 4.5*X1 -2.5*X2 +0.7*X3+1.6*X4 -2.4*X5 -2.8*X6

FOR JANE

X1 =1 , X2 =1 , X3 =5 , X4 =0 ,X5=0, X6=1

SO,

Y =11.5+(4.5*1)-(2.5*1)+(0.7*5)+0+0-(2.8*1)

= 14.2

..........................

FOR Sophie

X1 =1 , X2 =1 , X3 =10 , X4 =1 ,X5=0, X6=0

so,

Y =11.5+(4.5*1)-(2.5*1)+(0.7*10)+ (1.6*1)+0+0

= 22.1
