Answer:

0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of rain = P(R)

Probability of late plane = P(L)

So, the probability of no rain = P(R')

Breaking it down

If it rains, 40% chance, P(R) = 0.4

That the plane would be late if it rains = 70% × 40%, that is, P(R n L) = 0.7 × 0.4 = 0.28, 28% of the total chance.

That the plane would be on time if it rains = 30% × 40%, that is, P(R n L') = 0.3 × 0.4 = 0.12, 12% of the total chance.

If it doesn't rain, 60% chance, P(R') = 1 - P(R) = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

That the plane would be late if it doesn't rain = 20% × 60%, that is, P(R n L') = 0.2 × 0.6 = 0.12, 12% of the total chance.

That the plane would be on time if it doesn't rain = 80% × 60%, that is, P(R' n L') = 0.8 × 0.6 = 0.48, 48% of the total chance.

So, probability that the plane would be late = P(L) = P(R n L) + P(R' n L) = 0.28 + 0.12 = 0.4 = 40%

Consider the points.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula, \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}.

Plug the x and y values from the given points into the distance formula:

\sqrt{([-4]-2)^{2}+(5-5)^{2}}.

Solve the square root:

\sqrt{36} = \sqrt{6^{2}} = 6

A circle has a radius of 3. An arc in this circle has a central angle of 20°
Alla [95]

Answer:

The length of the arc is 1.0467

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all to solve this problem we need to use the circumferenc formula of a circle:

c = circumference

r = radius = 3

π = 3.14

c = 2π * r

we replace with the known values

c = 2 * 3.14 * 3

c = 18.84

The length of the circumference is 18.84

Now we have to divide the 20° by the 360​​° that a circle has, to know what part of the circle it represents

20° / 360° = 1/18

Now we multiply this fraction by the circumference and obtain the length of the arc

1/18 * 18.84 = 1.0467

The length of the arc is 1.0467
