Answer:
The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = 0.514
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the event that the captain hits the pirate ship
The probability of the captain hitting the pirate ship, P(A) = 3/5
Let B be the event that the pirate hits the captain's ship
The probability of the pirate hitting the captain's ship P(B) = 1/7
The probability of the pirate missing the captain's ship, P'(B) = 1 - P(B)
P'(B) = 1 - 1/7 = 6/7
The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = P(A) * P(B) = 3/5 * 6/7
= 0.514
you can get 6 whole pieces because .54 divided by .08 equals 6.75, but you have to have whole pieces, so 6. hope you get a good grade!
Answer:
y = 1/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Reciprocal of y^(1/2) : 1/y^(1/2)
1/y^(1/2) = 5
y^(1/2) = 1/5
y = (1/5)^2
