The probability that will not rain today is: 85%
100% - 15% = 85%
The correct answer is A
(a) P( fifth one is bad) = P( first 4 are OK) * P(5th is bad)
= (0.98)^4 * 0.02 = 0.0184 or 1.84%
(b) this will be (0.98)^10 = 81.70%
Answer:
125 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be calculated as a simple rule of 3.
In rule of 3 problems, you need to first identify the measures and whether they are direct or inverse to each other.
If they are direct to each other, if one value increases the other will increase too. For example, lets suppose that the Buffalo Bills have won 3 of 4 games. When there are 8 games, then will have won 6, keeping this proportion. Here, the measures are the number of games and the number of Buffalo Bills wins.
Now if they are inverse to each other, if one value increases the other will decrease. For example, if you travel at 60 mph, you will need 6 hours to arrive at your destination. At 80 mph, you will need less time. So, a the average speed increases, the time you need will decrease.
In this case the speeds is proportional to the time. So, if the time increases, the speed will increase too. It can be calculated by the following rule of 3.
Speed Time
100 mph - 0.8 seconds
x mph - 1 second
x = 100/0.8 = 125 mph.
Wait what? Erm.. could you give is a little more detail so I can figure this out??
