P(B) = 1 - P(B') = 1 - (7/12) = 5/12 <span>P(A∩B)=<span><span>P(A∩<span>B′</span>)/</span><span>P(<span>B′</span>) </span></span>× <span><span>P(B)/</span>1

</span></span>Plugging values into the last equation we get: <span>P(A∩B)=<span><span>1×12×5 / </span><span>6×7×12 </span></span>= <span>542</span></span>
Now we can make use of the following formula <span>P(A|B)=<span><span>P(A∩B) / </span><span>P(B)</span></span></span><span> by plugging in the values that we have found.
</span>
<span>5/42 is the numerator and the denominator is 5/12.
</span>

The bottom (denominator) is P(B) which equals 5/12.

<span>P(A|B)=<span><span>5×12 / </span><span>42×5 = 6/210

6/210 = 2/7

</span></span></span><span>p(a[b]) = 2/7</span>

Answer:

Explanation:

If the DNA codons are altered in an organism, the genetic code will be inaccurate. This will result in genetic mutations and disorders, depending on how drastic the change was. The two types of mutations are point mutations, that just replace one nucleotide. There's also frame shift mutations, where the amount of codons are incorrect.

Which of the following balances is affected by the local force of gravity? A) Beam Balance B) Analytical Balance C) Spring Balan
Juli2301 [7.4K]
It is the C) Spring Balance that is affected by the local force of gravity, since it is the one that has the most movement, therefore it would be difficult to spring.
