Mia is taking art and calculus courses on Mondays. She is late for the art class with probability 0.5 and late for the calculus

class with probability 0.4. Suppose the two events are independent. What is the probability that Mia is on time to exactly one of the classes (write it up to first decimal place)?

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the probability of being late for Art class be a = 0.5 and the probability of being on time for Art class be b = 1 - a = 0.5

Let the probability of being late for Calculus class be c = 0.4 and the probability of being on time for Calculus class be d = 1 - a = 0.6

Probability of being on time in exactly one of the classes = Probability of being ((on time for Art and late for Calculus) or (on time for Calculus and late for art))

= (b × c) + (d × a) = (0.5 × 0.4) + (0.6 × 0.5) = 0.2 + 0.3 = 0.5

What is the perimeter of the triangle (4,1) (2,5) (1,-1)
Naya [18.7K]

the perimeter of the triangle=14.38

The coordinates of the triangle (4,1),(2,5),(1,-1);

In geometry, the perimeter of a shape is defined as the total length of its boundary.

The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of all the sides of the triangle =a+b+c (assuming a,b, and c are the sides of the triangle)

By using the distances formula find the length of the sides of the triangle:√[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²],

where (x₁,y₁),(x₂,y₂) are the coordinates ,

a=√[(4 - 2)² + (1- 5)²] = \sqrt 20=4.7

b=√[(2 -1)² + (5 -(-1))²]=\sqrt37=6.08

c=√[(1 -4)² + ((-1)-1)²]=\sqrt13=3.60

the perimeter of the triangle=a+b+c=4.7+6.08+3.60=14.38

hence ,perimeter of the triangle=14.38
