Answer:

97.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three bulbs be A, B and C respectively.

Let P(A) denote the probability that the first bulb will burn out

Let P(B) denote the probability that the second bulb will burn out

Let P(C) denote the probability that the third bulb will burn out

Now, we are told that Each one has a 30% probability of burning out within the month.

Thus;

P(A) = P(B) = P(C) = 30% = 0.3

Now, probability that at the end of the month at least one of the bulbs will be lit will be given as;

P(at least one bulb will be lit) = 1 - (P(A) × P(B) × P(C))

P(at least one bulb will be lit) = 1 - (0.3 × 0.3 × 0.3) = 0.973 = 97.3%

There will be two squares.

Think about it: The shorter side is 3.5 feet. The longer side is 7 feet. If he cuts it in half on the longer side, he's taking the length of that longer side, and dividing it by 2. 7/2=3.5.

So, you'd have two squares, both with a length and width of 3.5 feet.

What is 12X-4y = -8 written in slope-intercept form?
qwelly [4]

Answer:

y = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c

Given

12x - 4y = - 8 ( subtract 12x from both sides )

- 4y = - 12x - 8 ( divide all terms by - 4 )

y = 3x + 2 ← in slope- intercept form
