Answer:

0.226 = 22.6% probability that the Yankees will lose when they score 5 or more runs

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional probability:

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

If the Yankees score 5 or more runs, either they win, or they lose. The sum of these probabilities is 1.

Probability that the Yankees win:

Event A: Scoring 5 or more runs.

Event B: Winning

The probability that the Yankees will score 5 or more runs in a game is 0.53.

This means that

The probability that the Yankees win and score 5 or more runs is 0.41.

This means that

So

0.774 probability that the Yankees will win when they score 5 or more runs

What is the probability that the Yankees will lose when they score 5 or more runs?

p + 0.774 = 1

p = 1 - 0.774

p = 0.226

0.226 = 22.6% probability that the Yankees will lose when they score 5 or more runs

<span>before answering this question, we should know the properties of angles and parallel lines. For example, two angles are called interior alternate angles, if each angle is created by the existence of two parallel lines and a an another line called transversal. As for our case, 3 and 5 are alternate angles, so meas 3 = meas 5. It verifies Z test when we look at the figure.</span>
