Nitella [24]

Answer: 0.9730

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event of the answer being correct and B be the event of the knew the answer.

Given: P(A)=0.9

P(A^c)=0.1

P(B|A^{C})=0.25

If it is given that the answer is correct , then the probability that he guess the answer P(B|A)= 1

By Bayes theorem , we have

P(A|B)=\dfrac{P(B|A)P(A)}{P(B|A)P(A)+P(C|A^c)P(A^c)}

=\dfrac{(1)(0.9)}{(1))(0.9)+(0.25)(0.1)}\\\\=0.972972972973\approx0.9730

Hence, the student correctly answers a question, the probability that the student really knew the correct answer is 0.9730.

There are 3 in. of snow on the ground when it begins to snow 0.5 in./h . Which linear equation represents the total depth of the
dexar [7]

There are 3 in. of snow on the ground when it begins to snow 0.5 in./h.

Initial depth of snow = 3 in.

it begins to snow 0.5 in./h. The constant rate of snow is 0.5. So slope = 0.5

Let x be the number of hours

y be the total depth of the snow

To frame linear equation we use y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept (initial depth of snow)

We know m=0.5  and b=3

Replace it in the equation

y = 0.5x + 3

The linear equation that represents the total depth of the snow(y), in inches, after x hours

is y= 0.5x + 3

Solve for x <br> Find ADB<br> Find BDC
NeTakaya

Answer:

x=12 ADB= 56 BDC= 54

Step-by-step explanation:

ADB and BDC are complementary, so they add up to 90 degrees. In other words ADB+BDC= 90 So I can input my knowns into the equation

(3x+10) + (4x-4) = 90

I combined like terms to give me 7x+6=90

Then I subtract 6 from both sides giving me 7x=84

Last I divide 7 on both sides. x=12

Then I input the x (12) into the equation and solve it from there

3(12)+10 and 4(12)-4

3(12)+10=56

4(12)-4=54

. . . I think. Hope this helps!
