Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the rectangle, M O = NP

4x - 10 = 2x+4

4x-2x = 4 + 10

2x = 14

x = 14/2

x = 7

SInce MO and NP are the diagonal

Length of diagonal = 4x- 10

Length of diagonal = 4(7) - 10

Length of diagonal = 28 - 10

Length of diagonal = 18

hence the required length is 18

The probability that event A occurs is 0.4, and the probability that events A and B both occur is 0.25. If the probability that

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The probability that event B will occur is 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

probability that event A occurs, P(A) = 0.4

the probability that events A and B both occur, P(A ∩ B) = 0.25

the probability that either event A or event B occurs, P(A ∪ B) = 0.6

To determine the probability that event B will occur, we use probability addition rule;

P(A) + P(B) = P(A ∩ B) + P(A ∪ B)

0.4 + P(B) = 0.25 + 0.6

0.4 + P(B) = 0.85

P(B) = 0.85 - 0.4

P(B) = 0.45

Therefore, the probability that event B will occur is 0.45

There are 10 cranberry and 15 strawberry juices. You randomly pick two juices. What's the probability you'll get two strawberry

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

7/20

Explanation:

The theoretical probability, P (A), of an event, A, is:

P(A) = number of outcomes of event A / total number of possible outcomes

For 10 cranberry and 15 strawberry juices, the number of outcomes for two strawberry juices are:

Combination of 15 strawberry juices chosen in two:

$C^{15}_{2}=\frac{15!}{(15-2)!(2!)}=\frac{15!}{13!2!}=\frac{15\times 14}{2}=105$

The total number of possible outcomes is:

Combination of 25 juices chosen in two:

$C^{25}_{2}=\frac{25!}{(25-2)!(2!)}=\frac{25!}{23!2!}=\frac{25\times 24}{2}=300$

Thus, the probability of randomly picking two strawberry juices is:

P (two strawberry juices) = 105/300 = 7/20

Note that you can obtain it as the product of the probabilities that the first juice is a strawberry juice and the second juice is also strawberry juice:

$15/25\times 14/24=(15\times 25)/(14\times 24)=210/600=7/20$
