Answer:

0.182 probability that the Yankees will win when they score fewer than 5 runs

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem:

When the Yankees score less than 5 runs, either they win, or they lose. The sum of these probabilities is 1.

Probability they lose:

Event A: Scoring fewer than 5 runs.

Event B: Losing

The probability that the Yankees will score 5 or more runs in a game is 0.56.

So 1 - 0.56 = 0.44 probability the Yankees score fewer than 5 runs.

This means that P(A) = 0.44

The probability that the Yankees lose and score fewer than 5 runs is 0.36.

This means that P(A \cap B) = 0.36

Then the probability they lose is:

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.36}{0.44} = 0.818

Probability they win:

p + 0.818 = 1

p = 0.182

0.182 probability that the Yankees will win when they score fewer than 5 runs

Bad White [126]
Find the square numbers and see which ones 54 lies between
1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64.
It lies between the two square numbers 49 and 64.
But you want the square root.
So find the square root of 49 and 64.
7 and 8.
So the square root of 54 is between 7 and 8.
Hope this helps.

a company donates 935 pencils to a school. the pencils are divided evenly among 9 classrooms. the rest of the pencils are given
wariber [46]
The problem deals with a division and the rest of it, that is dividing the total amount of pencils into 9 classrooms and the rest, lets express it as fraction:
935/9 = 103 + 8/9
that is, if we multiply 103*9 we get 927 and are 8 pencils left over, therefore, 8 pencils are donated to the library and each classroom gets 103 pencils, in total 935 pencils are donated.

Find the value of x if a,b, and c are collinear points an b is between a and c
MakcuM [25]
\sf Hello!

• \sf AB = x + 6
• \sf BC = 3x - 5
• \sf AC = 36 - x

\sf We're \:given\: that \:A,\: B\: and \:C \:are \:Collinear\: points

\sf Then,

\sf AB + BC = AC

⇒ \sf x + 6 + 3x - 5 = 36 - x

⇒ \sf x + 3x + 6 - 5 = 36 - x

⇒ \sf 4x + 1 = 36 - x

⇒ \sf 4x + x = 36 - 1

⇒ \sf 5x = 35

⇒ \sf x = \dfrac{\sf 35}{\sf 5}

⇒ \boxed{\sf x = 7}

\sf Hence,

\sf The\: value\: of\: x\: is\: D.\: 7

The variable x is twice the value of the variable y and the sum of x and y is 42 solve for x and y.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Write two equations with the given information:

1) x = 2y ( x is twice the value of y)

2) x + y = 42

Replace x in the second equation with the value of x in the first equation:

2y + y = 42

Simplify:

3y = 42

Divide both sides by 3:

y = 42 / 3

y = 14

Now we have the value for Y, solve for x by replacing y with 14:

x = 2y

x = 2(14)

x = 28

X = 28 and y = 14
