Answer:6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

so basically given observation is u got a tail from a biased coin.

so our favorable case is getting a tail from biased coin.

we will use the probability for it:

p1= probability of getting choosing biased coin and getting tail =probability of choosing biased coin* probability of tail = 3/4*1

p2= probability of choosing a fair coin and getting tail= probability of choosing fair coin*probability of getting tail on it = 1/4*1/2 = 1/8

so p(E)= p1/(p1+p2)= 3/4/(3/4+1/8)=7/8

player A led a baseball league in runs batted in for the 2006 regular season. player B. who came in second player to A, had 13 f
Alla [95]
A= player A runs batted in
b= player B runs batted in= a-13

250= a + b
substitute b= a-13 for b

250= a + (a-13)
combine like terms
250= 2a -13
add 13 to both sides
263= 2a
divide both sides by 2
131.5= a

Substitute a= 131.5 into equation
250= a + b
250= 131.5 + b
subtract 131.5 from both sides
118.5= b

Hope this helps! :)

(1 point) 1. The height (in feet) and volume of usable lumber (in cubic feet) of 32 cherry trees are measured by a researcher. T
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

C. volume

Step-by-step explanation:

The response variable in this scenario would be the volume of the usable lumber. That is because this variable depends completely on the height of the cherry trees that are being measured. The higher that the cherry trees are the more volume can be expected to get from cutting these trees down. The opposite goes for trees that are smaller, they would decrease the total expected volume that will be received from the usable lumber since there would be less amount of tree to cut down.
