"A seed randomly blows around a complex habitat. It may land on any of three different soil types: a high-quality soil that give

Answer:

a. answer to a can be found in the attached file

b. Pr[survival] = Pr[good&survive]+Pr[medium&survive]+Pr[low&survive]=

0.24+0.06+0.05 = 0.35

c. Assume that the seed has a 0.2 chance of dying before it lands in a habitat. What is its  overall probability of survival?

Pr[survival] = Pr[survival|lands] * Pr[lands] = 0.35 * 0.2 = 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Find the probability tree as attached below

b. Pr[survival] = Pr[good&survive]+Pr[medium&survive]+Pr[low&survive]=

0.24+0.06+0.05 = 0.35

c. Assume that the seed has a 0.2 chance of dying before it lands in a habitat. What is its  overall probability of survival?

A small bag of flavor weighed 13 ounces. A large bag was 5 percent heavier.How much does the large bag weigh?
Novay_Z [31]
13+5=18
The large bag would be 18 because you have to add 5 more ounces than 13

A toy baseball and bat cost $1.50 together. The bat costs $1.00 more than the baseball. How much does the baseball cost?
Nataly [62]
$0.50 is the answer. If the bat is $1.00 more than the baseball, you would subtract that from the total cost which is $1.50 so the answer would be $0.50.

What is the excluded value of x / x^2 +2x -3​
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

x = - 3 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression

\frac{x}{x^2+2x-3}

The denominator of the expression cannot be zero as this would make the expression undefined. Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the values that x cannot be, that is

x² + 2x - 3 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 3)(x - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

Thus x = 1 and x = - 3 are both excluded values
