A thief who is particularly knowledgeable about statistics and the legal system determines that if he commits a given heist the

probability that he is never caught is 60%. If he is arrested he will go to trial where there is a 30% chance the jury will acquit him, a 30% chance he is convicted and serves a prison sentence less than five years, and a 40% chance the sentence is more than five years.
What is the probability that the thief is not imprisoned in 5 years?

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  about 28.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditional probability equation can be used:

  P(arrested | not in jail) = P(arrested & not in jail)/P(not in jail)

  = 0.24/0.84 = 2/7 ≈ 28.6%

vekshin1

Answer: 708$ approximately.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 12 months every year so 34,000 divided by 12. So she makes about 2,833 a month. Then about 4 weeks per month so you divide 2833 by 4 and it’s 708$ per week.

Which graph represents the function f(x) = |x + 3|?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Graph of Modulus

The graph of a modulus or absolute value function is in a form of a 'V' shape whose vertex depends upon the coordinates. The equation for the graph is given as,

where,

(a, b) are the coordinates of the vertex of 'v' in the form of (x, y),

And h shows how wider or lean will be the function, for h=0, it is a straight line, while for a negative value the graph will face downwards and opposite for a positive value.

Given to us

y = |x-3|

On the coordinate plane

The graph will be in the shape of a 'V' whose vertex will lay at the coordinates (3, 0). As the value of a is 1 the graph will face upwards. As shown below on the graph.
