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: 


If it is given that the answer is correct , then the probability that he guess the answer 
By Bayes theorem , we have


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.
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
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!
Ryan: y=10x+25 Alex: y=11x+20
a) Mr. Smith should choose Alex because the price would be $42 compared to Ryan which would be $45
b) Mr.Smith could choose either Ryan or Alex because they would both charge $75
