Answer:

3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/4 can be written as 5/4

5 5/6 can be written as 35/6

so divide (5/4)/(35/6)

= (5/4)*(6/35)

=(1/4)*(6/7)

=6/28

simplified = 3/14

Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color, but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be th

sesenic [268]

Answer:

The probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

P(Blue eyes) = 31%

P(Deaf) = 38%

P(Deaf | Blue eyes) = 42%

Formula for conditional probability:

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

Now, let A be the event where the dog is deaf and B be the the event where dog is blue eyed.

$P( \text{ Deaf}|\text{Blue eyes}) = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{P(\text{Blue eyes})}\\\\0.42 = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{0.31}\\\\P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes}) = 0.42\times 0.31 = 0.1302 = 13.02\%$

Hence, the probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

The domain for variables x and y is the set {1, 2, 3}. The table below gives the values of P(x, y) for every pair of elements fr

Olin [163]

Answer:

Option B and C are correct answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option B and C are the correct options.

Option a is true since row 1 has all T.

so for X=1, P(x,y) is true for all y.

Option b is false since no column has all F.

Option C is false since no column has all F.

Option D is true since 1st row has all T.

hence option B and C are correct answers.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is an infinite n umber of systems of equations that has (1, 4) as its solution. Are you given choices? Try x = 1 and y = 4 in each equation of the choices. The set of two equations that are true when those values of x and y are used is the answer.

Vikentia [17]

$0.123\\\\digit\ in\ the\ tenths\ place\ is\ \boxed1$

<em>If the number you are rounding is followed by 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, round the number up (+1).</em>

<em>If the number you are rounding is followed by 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, round the number down (no change).</em>
