Mathematics
1 answer:
Licemer1 [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

(b)0.56

(c)0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

P(Ben Pass) =0.8

Therefore: P(Ben fails)=1-0.8 =0.2

P(Tom Pass) =0.7

Therefore: P(Tom fails)=1-0.7 =0.3

See attached for the completed tree diagram

(b)Probability that both will pass

P(both will pass)=P(Ben pass and Tom pass)

=P(Ben pass) X P(Tom pass)

=0.8 X 0.7

=0.56

(c)The probability that only one of them will pass

Since either Tom or Ben can pass, we have:

P(only one of them will pass)

=P(Ben pass and Tom fails OR Ben Fails and Tom Pass)

=P(Ben pass and Tom fails)+P(Ben Fails and Tom Pass)

=(0.8 X 0.3) + (0.2 X 0.7)

=0.24 + 0.14

=0.38

hjlf
Take the square root of 256 to find the side length of the mirror
√256 =16
the rectangles width is 16, it length is 2 inches longer
16+2 =18 so the length is 18 
to find the area multiply them together
18x16=288
the area is 288 inches² :)
