You need to use the conditional probability formula:
P(A|B) = P(A∩B) / P(B)
Key:
P(A|B): Probability of A given B
P(A∩B): Probability of A and B

If we say A is the event that the train arrives on time and B is the event that the train leaves on time, then according to the information:
P(B) = 0.4
P(A∩B) = 0.28
Just insert into the formula:
P(A|B) = 0.28 / 0.4 = 0.7
(or 70% as a percentage).

An unproven statement that is based on observations.
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

When people make researches, they make a statement and then go further to either price that statement wrong or right.

Once the statement is proven right, either by virtue of field work or laboratory work, it becomes a theory.

That unproven statement that can either be true or wrong, but baseless because it is yet to be proven is called HYPOTHESIS

Equation to find original price if sale price of $429 is a 34% discount
Burka [1]

Answer:

The original price is $650

Step-by-step explanation:

There's an actual algebra method for this, but this is my method because I find it way easier to remember.

Since the most you can discount out of an item is 100% (well, it's considered free then) let's subtract 100 - 34, which is 66.

Now, turn it into a decimal because it makes the numbers easier- 0.66.

Since when you're finding the discount of an original price, you multiply the original price by the discount- instead for finding the original price for a discounted item we divide $429 by 0.66 instead, since when you divide a number by another number that's under 1 the quotient is a larger number.

So, 429 ÷ 0.66 = 650.

Therefore, the original price of the $429 sale price for a 34% discount is $650.

hich function has a range of {y|y ≤ 5}? f(x) = (x – 4)2 + 5 f(x) = –(x – 4)2 + 5 f(x) = (x – 5)2 + 4 f(x) = –(x – 5)2 + 4
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

f(x)=-(x-4)^2+5

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f(x)=-(x-4)^2+5 has  the vertex at (4,5).


Since a=-1\:, the graph of the function is a maximum graph.


The highest y-value is the y-coordinate of the vertex which is 5.


Therefore the range is {y|y\le 5}


Therefore the correct answer is B.
