Answer:

161 + 162 + 163 = 486

Step-by-step explanation:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 486

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 486

3X + 3 = 486

3X + 3 - 3 = 486 - 3

3X = 483

3X/3 = 483/3

X = 161

Hamburger buns come in packages of 8. Hamburger patties come in packages of 10.
Vadim26 [7]

Answers/Step-by-step explanation:

A. LCM

B. Greatest Common Factor(GCF) shows the largest whole number, in this case patties and buns, would be a part of the whole that matches both numbers. Neil is unable to buy parts of packages because that not how most stores do business. Least common multiple(LCM) is the number that is both closest in value to the original number while being equal for all numbers. in that case, Neil is buying whole packages so it would work.

C. Neil would buy 4 packages of hamburger patties and 5 packages of hamburger buns. He could make 20 burgers.

There are three power plants [X, Y, Z] that at any given time each one either generates electricity or idles. Event A is that pl
insens350 [35]

We're told that

P(A\cap B)=0.15

P(A\cup B)^C=0.06\implies P(A\cup B)=0.94

P(B\mid A)=P(B^C\mid A)=0.5

where the last fact is due to the law of total probability:

P(A)=P(A\cap B)+P(A\cap B^C)

\implies P(A)=P(B\mid A)P(A)+P(B^C\mid A)P(A)

\implies 1=P(B\mid A)+P(B^C\mid A)

so that B\mid A and B^C\mid A are complementary.

By definition of conditional probability, we have

P(B\mid A)=P(B^C\mid A)

\implies\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}=\dfrac{P(A\cap B^C)}{P(A)}

\implies P(A\cap B)=P(A\cap B^C)

We make use of the addition rule and complementary probabilities to rewrite this as

P(A\cap B)=P(A\cap B^C)

\implies P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B^C)-P(A\cup B^C)

\implies P(B)-[1-P(A\cup B)^C]=[1-P(B)]-P(A\cup B^C)

\implies2P(B)=2-[P(A\cup B)^C+P(A\cup B^C)]

\implies2P(B)=[1-P(A\cup B)^C]+[1-P(A\cup B^C)]

\implies2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+P(A\cup B^C)^C

\implies2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+P(A^C\cap B)\quad(*)

By the law of total probability,

P(B)=P(A\cap B)+P(A^C\cap B)

\implies P(A^C\cap B)=P(B)-P(A\cap B)

and substituting this into (*) gives

2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+[P(B)-P(A\cap B)]

\implies P(B)=P(A\cup B)-P(A\cap B)

\implies P(B)=0.94-0.15=\boxed{0.79}

Find the value of x y and z below !
ehidna [41]

Answer:

x=67, y=121, z=65

Step-by-step explanation:

One property of parallelogram is that opposite angles have the same measure, so we can write down:

(y-9)=112\\y=121

Another property is that two adjacent angles are supplementary (meaning that they add up to 180 degrees). Thus, the following equations are true:

(z+3)+112=180\\(x+1)+112=180

Solve the equations:

(z+3)+112=180\\z+115=180\\z=65\\(x+1)+112=180\\x+113=180\\x=67

To check, add up all 4 angles and check if they sum up to 360 degrees:

x=67, y=121, z=65\\(y-9)+(x+1)+(z+3)+112=360\\(121-9)+(67+1)+(65+3)+112=360\\112+68+68+112=360\\360=360

And please ignore the fact that I cannot insert the degree sign :(
