A friend makes three pancakes for breakfast. One of the pancakes is burned on both sides, one is burned on only one side, and th

e other is not burned on either side. You are served one of the pancakes at random, and the side facing you is burned. What is the probability that the other side is burned? (Hint: Use conditional probability.)

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that one side of the pancake is burned. The pancake you were served cannot be the one that is not burned on either side. Therefore, you were either served the pancake burned on both sides, or the pancake that was only burned in one side. Thus, there is a 50% percent chance that the other side is also burned.

20% of the people in a village own a dog, 30% own goats and 40% own cattle, 5% own both a dog and goats, 4% own both a dog and c
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

37 %

Step-by-step explanation:

here..

only Dog = 20- 5 - 4 - 1 = 10

only goats = 30 - 5 - 3 - 1 = 21

only cattle = 40 - 4 - 3 - 1 = 32

then ... since the maximum percentage is 100 %

people who don't own any animal = 100% - 10% - 21% - 32% = 37 %

Evaluate the following limit:
Makovka662 [10]

If we evaluate the function at infinity, we can immediately see that:

        \large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{\displaystyle L = \lim_{x \to \infty}{\frac{(x^2 + 1)^2 - 3x^2 + 3}{x^3 - 5}} = \frac{\infty}{\infty}} \end{gathered}$}

Therefore, we must perform an algebraic manipulation in order to get rid of the indeterminacy.

We can solve this limit in two ways.

<h3>Way 1:</h3>

By comparison of infinities:

We first expand the binomial squared, so we get

                         \large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \displaystyle L = \lim_{x \to \infty}{\frac{x^4 - x^2 + 4}{x^3 - 5}} = \infty \end{gathered}$}

Note that in the numerator we get x⁴ while in the denominator we get x³ as the highest degree terms. Therefore, the degree of the numerator is greater and the limit will be \infty. Recall that when the degree of the numerator is greater, then the limit is \infty if the terms of greater degree have the same sign.

<h3>Way 2</h3>

Dividing numerator and denominator by the term of highest degree:

                            \large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf L  = \lim_{x \to \infty}\frac{x^{4}-x^{2} +4  }{x^{3}-5  }  \end{gathered}$}\\

                                \ \  = \lim_{x \to \infty\frac{\frac{x^{4}  }{x^{4} }-\frac{x^{2} }{x^{4}}+\frac{4}{x^{4} }    }{\frac{x^{3} }{x^{4}}-\frac{5}{x^{4}}   }  }

                                \large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{=\lim_{x \to \infty}\frac{1-\frac{1}{x^{2} } +\frac{4}{x^{4} }  }{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{5}{x^{4} }  }  \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ =\frac{1}{0}=\infty } \end{gathered}$}

Note that, in general, 1/0 is an indeterminate form. However, we are computing a limit when x →∞, and both the numerator and denominator are positive as x grows, so we can conclude that the limit will be ∞.
