Let BS be the event that the patient survives bypass surgery.
Let H be the event that the heart damage will heal.
Then P(BS) = 0.60, and also we have a conditional probability: GIVEN that the patient survives,
the probability that the heart damage will heal is 0.5, that is P(H|BS) = 0.5
We want to know P(BS and H).
Using the formula of the conditional probability:
P(H and BS) = P(H|BS)·P(BS) = (0.6)(0.5) = 0.3
Answer:
x = 5.5
y = - 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let one of the numbers = x
Let the other number = y
x + y = - 1
x = y + 12 Put the second equation into the first one
y + 12 + y = - 1 Subtract 12 from both sides
y + y = - 1 - 12 Combine both left and right sides
2y = - 13 Divide by 2
2y/2 = - 13/1
y = - 6.5
x + y = - 1
x - 6.5 = - 1 Add 6.5 to both sides
x = 5.5
Answer:
$0.48
Step-by-step explanation:
$2.40 divided by 5 pounds equals $0.48 per pound.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y is always (1/3) of x.
Thus, if x = 0, y = 0; if x = 1, y = (1/3)(1) = 1/3, and so on. The corresponding ordered pairs are (0, 0), (1, 1/3), (-2, -2/3)
