Answer:
- P(≥1 working) = 0.9936
- She raises her odds of completing the exam without failure by a factor of 13.5, from 11.5 : 1 to 155.25 : 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Assuming the failure is in the calculator, not the operator, and the failures are independent, the probability of finishing with at least one working calculator is the complement of the probability that both will fail. That is ...
... P(≥1 working) = 1 - P(both fail) = 1 - P(fail)² = 1 - (1 - 0.92)² = 0.9936
2. The odds in favor of finishing an exam starting with only one calculator are 0.92 : 0.08 = 11.5 : 1.
If two calculators are brought to the exam, the odds in favor of at least one working calculator are 0.9936 : 0.0064 = 155.25 : 1.
This odds ratio is 155.25/11.5 = 13.5 times as good as the odds with only one calculator.
_____
My assessment is that there is significant gain from bringing a backup. (Personally, I might investigate why the probability of failure is so high. I have not had such bad luck with calculators, which makes me wonder if operator error is involved.)
38.4? Since if she runs 24 feet in five seconds add that two times she would run 48 feet in ten second so.. divide 24 with 5 and get 4.8. So 48 minus 9.6 makes 38.4.
The current weight is 15% less than the weight Angela had 1 year ago (). Or we can write,
.
Thus Angela,s current weight is 85% of her weight one year ago.
Answer:
240 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
rectangle= 20x10=200
triangle= 1/2(4)(20)=40
200+40=240
