The probability of not surviving a head-on car accident is: 0.903

Step-by-step explanation:

The probabilities of occurrence and non-occurrence of an event add up to one.

If p is the probability that an even will happen and q is the probability that it will not happen

Then

$p+q=1$

Here,

Probability of surviving = p = 0.097

Probability of not surviving = q = ?

$0.097 + q = 1\\q = 1 - 0.097\\q = 0.903$

The probability of not surviving a head-on car accident is: 0.903

Anyone know how to answer this? Help if u do please!

A- It will be smaller, because we're finding a part of a number, and it's no more than 100 percent.
B- It would be greater. It's more than 100 percent, which accounts for the whole value, and goes even more.
Hope this helps!

What is (64x^2y^3)-1/2 as radical expression?

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{8xy \sqrt{y} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(64 {x}^{2} {y}^{3} )^{ - \frac{ 1 }{2} } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{(64 {x}^{2} {y}^{3} )^{\frac{ 1 }{2} } } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{64 {x}^{2} {y}^{3}} } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{ {(8xy)}^{2} y} } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{8xy \sqrt{y} }$

Find the measure of angle A.<br><br> 71° x+49<br> +72

slega [8]

Answer: 66 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the angle measures is 180, so:

71 + x + 49 + x + 72 = 180

2x + 192 = 180

2x = -12

x = -6

Meaning the measure of angle A = -6 + 72 = 66 deg.
