Answer:

144 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are moving at the same speed and start at the same time, they have to go the same distance

That means they will meet in the middle

If they are 72 inches from the right side that means the middle is 72 inches from the right side

The road is 2 times 72 inches

2*72 = 144

144 inches

Let AA and BB be events such that P(A∩B)=1/73P(A∩B)=1/73, P(A~)=68/73P(A~)=68/73, P(B)=21/73P(B)=21/73. What is the probability
krok68 [10]

Answer:

P(A \cup B) = \frac{5}{73} +\frac{21}{73} -\frac{1}{73}=\frac{25}{73}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A and B events. We have defined the probabilities for some events:

P(A') =\frac{68}{73} , P(B) =\frac{21}{73} , P(A \cap B) =\frac{1}{73}

Where A' represent the complement for the event A

The complement rule is a theorem that provides a connection between the probability of an event and the probability of the complement of the event. Lat A the event of interest and A' the complement. The rule is defined by: P(A)+P(A') =1

So for this case we can solve for P(A) like this:

P(A) = 1-P(A') = 1-\frac{68}{73}=\frac{5}{73}

And now we can find P(A \cup B) using the total probability rul given by:

P(A \cup B) = P(A)+P(B) -P(A \cap B)

And if we replace the values given we got:

P(A \cup B) = \frac{5}{73} +\frac{21}{73} -\frac{1}{73}=\frac{25}{73}

And that would be the final answer.

How do you read this expression 8(8x+7) and 8(3x)+8(7)
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

64x+56 & 24x+56

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this is what you mean because this is not an equation as it is not set equal to anything.


Both problems solved by distributive property -

8*8x + (8*7) = 64x+56

8*3x + (8*7) = 24x+56

Which of the following is one solution to the expression (ax + b)(cx - d) = 0 ?
V125BC [204]
We know that
if <span>(ax + b)(cx - d) = 0
then
</span><span>(ax + b)= 0-----> ax=-b------> x=-b/a
and
</span><span>(cx - d) = 0-----> cx=d------> x=d/c

therefore

the answer is the option
</span><span>C. -\frac{b}{a}</span>
