Answer:
0.12
Step-by-step explanation:
Independent events are when probability of one event happening doesn't affect the probability of the other event happening.
Also,
In probability "AND" means "multiplication" and "OR" means "addition".
The question asks for probability that Nick oversleeps "AND" has pop quiz. So we need to multiply the individual probabilities (since independent, they have no affect on each other).
P(Nick oversleeps) = 0.48
P(pop quiz) = 0.25
Thus,
P(Nick oversleeps AND pop quiz) = 0.48 * 0.25 = 0.12
Let f and s be the ages of the father and the son. We have
From the first equation we derive
Substitute this expression for f in the second equation and we have
The solutions to this equation are s=5 or s=37
Since the sum of the ages must be 42, the solutions would imply
We can only accept the first solution, since the second would imply a son older than his father!
Answer:
The tree is 18ft tall
Explanation:
Shadow = Real
4ft = 6ft(man)
1ft = 1.5ft
Let tree = yft
12 = y
y = 12 × 1.5
= 18ft
