Answer: Probability that students who did not attend the class on Fridays given that they passed the course is 0.043.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that students attend class on Fridays = 70% = 0.7

Probability that who went to class on Fridays would pass the course = 95% = 0.95

Probability that who did not go to class on Fridays would passed the course = 10% = 0.10

Let A be the event students passed the course.

Let E be the event that students attend the class on Fridays.

Let F be the event that students who did not attend the class on Fridays.

Here, P(E) = 0.70 and P(F) = 1-0.70 = 0.30

P(A|E) = 0.95,  P(A|F) = 0.10

We need to find the probability that they did not attend on Fridays.

We would use "Bayes theorem":

P(F\mid A)=\dfrac{P(F).P(A\mid F)}{P(E).P(A\mid E)+P(F).P(A\mid F)}\\\\P(F\mid A)=\dfrac{0.30\times 0.10}{0.70\times 0.95+0.30\times 0.10}\\\\P(F\mid A)=\dfrac{0.03}{0.695}=0.043

Hence, probability that students who did not attend the class on Fridays given that they passed the course is 0.043.

You and your brother are reading the same novel. You want to get ahead of him in the book, so you decide to read 303030 minutes
ddd [48]

You will read for 45 minutes if your brother reads for 15 minutes.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

You decide to read 30 minutes longer than your brother reads.

If your brother reads x number of minutes, then 30 minutes longer than x minutes means (x+30) minutes.

As the number of minutes you read is y , so the equation will be:  y= x+30

When your brother reads for 15 minutes, then we will just <u>plug x=15 into the above equation</u>. So.....

y=15+30= 45

So, you will read for 45 minutes if your brother reads for 15 minutes.

Erin created a scale drawing for a garden that will be 10 ft by 5 ft. She plans to include a section in the garden for herbs, wh
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The dimensions of the herb garden on the scale drawing are 2.4 by 6 inches

Step 1 (finding the scale factor):

12/10 (inches/feet) or 1.2 (inches/feet)

(1.2 inches<em> </em>in the <em>drawing</em> represent 1 foot in real life)

Step 2 (finding the dimensions of the herb garden on the scale drawing):

Real life dimensions are 2ft by 5ft so we multiply by the <em>scale factor</em>:

2ft = 2 x 1.2 = 2.4 inches

5ft = 5 x 1.2 = 6 inches

So the dimensions of the herb garden on the scale drawing are 2.4 by 6 inches.
