Answer:

<em /> $Probability = 0.7374$ <em />

<em />

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the probability that a student has a phone with p

$p = 97\%$

Required

Determine the probability that 10 has

This is calculated as thus:

$Probability = p^n$

Where n = 10

$Probability = (97\%)^{10}$

$Probability = 0.97^{10}$

$Probability = 0.73742412689$

<em /> $Probability = 0.7374$ <em> --- Approximated</em>

(Anderson, 1.14) Assume that P(A) = 0.4 and P(B) = 0.7. Making no further assumptions on A and B, show that P(A ∩ B) satisfies 0

Goshia [24]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

P(A)=0.4 and P(B)=0.7

We know that

$P(A)+P(B)+P(A\cap B)=P(A\cup B)$

We know that

Maximum value of $P(A\cup B)$ =1 and minimum value of $P(A\cup B)$ =0

$0\leq P(A\cup B )\leq 1$

$0\leq P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\leq 1$

$0\leq 0.4+0.7-P(A\cap B)\leq 1$

$0\leq 1.1-P(A\cap B)\leq 1$

$0\leq 1.1-P(A\cap B)$

$P(A\cap B)\leq 1.1$

It is not possible that $P(A\cap B)$ is equal to 1.1

$1.1-P(A\cap B)\leq 1$

$-P(A\cap B)\leq 1-1.1=-0.1$

Multiply by (-1) on both sides

$P(A\cap B)\geq 0.1$

Again, $P(A\cup B)\geq P(B)$

$0.4+0.7-P(A\cap B)\geq 0.7$

$1.1-P(A\cap B)\geq 0.7$

$-P(A\cap B)\geq -1.1+0.7=-0.4$

Multiply by (-1) on both sides

$P(A\cap B)\leq 0.4$

Hence, $0.1\leq P(A\cap B)\leq 0.4$

At a 3-mile cross-country race, an athlete runs 2 miles at 6 mph and 1 mile at 12 mph. What is the athlete's average speed?

Tom [10]

Answer: the average speed is 7.5 mph or at least im pretty sure

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if you make the 2 miles at 6 mph to 1 mile at 3 mph then you get 1 mile at 3mph and 1 mile at 12 mph. now that you have the unit rates of these you can add them. 1 + 1 = 2 miles and 3 + 12 = 15 mph now divide this by two and you get 7.5 mph per mile.

I hope this helped, if it did could you give me a good rating? lol
