Answer:
16 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
This ladder and building creates a right triangle with 34 as the hypotenuse and 30 as a side. the Pythagorean theorem says that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 so 900 + b^2 = 1156. b^2 = 256, square root both sides and you get b = 16
a. By definition of conditional probability,
P(C | D) = P(C and D) / P(D) ==> P(C and D) = 0.3
b. C and D are mutually exclusive if P(C and D) = 0, but this is clearly not the case, so no.
c. C and D are independent if P(C and D) = P(C) P(D). But P(C) P(D) = 0.2 ≠ 0.3, so no.
d. Using the inclusion/exclusion principle, we have
P(C or D) = P(C) + P(D) - P(C and D) ==> P(C or D) = 0.6
e. Using the definition of conditional probability again, we have
P(D | C) = P(C and D) / P(C) ==> P(D | C) = 0.75
3x + y = 3
7x + 2y = 1
First isolate one of the variables (x or y) in one of the equations.
Isolate "y" in the first equation(because it is the easiest to isolate) and substitute it into the second equation.
3x + y = 3 Subtract 3x on both sides
3x - 3x + y = 3 - 3x
y = 3 - 3x
7x + 2y = 1
7x + 2(3 - 3x) = 1 [since y = 3 - 3x, you can substitute (3-3x) for "y"]
Multiply/distribute 2 into (3 - 3x)
7x + (3(2) - 3x(2)) = 1
7x + 6 - 6x = 1
x + 6 = 1 Subtract 6 on both sides
x = -5
Now that you know "x", substitute it into one of the equations (I will do both)
3x + y = 3
3(-5) + y = 3 [since x = -5, you can plug in -5 for "x"]
-15 + y = 3 Add 15 on both sides
y = 18
7x + 2y = 1
7(-5) + 2y = 1
-35 + 2y = 1 Add 35 on both sides
2y = 36 Divide 2 on both sides
y = 18
x = -5, y = 18 or (-5, 18)
