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

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The sum of two numbers is 25. One of the numbers exceeds the other by 9. Find numbers

<h3>here</h3>

the other number = x + 9

Let the number be x. 

Sum of two numbers = 25

According to question, x + x + 9 = 25

⇒ 2x + 9 = 25

⇒ 2x = 25 - 9

⇒ 2x = 16

⇒ 2x/2 = 16/2

⇒ x = 8

Therefore, x + 9 = 8 + 9 = 17

Therefore, the two numbers are 8 and 17.

There are 150 oranges, apples and pears in a box. The ratio of the number of oranges to the number of apples is 3:5 and the rati
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

  Pears:  30

Step-by-step explanation:

Constant:

  3x + 5x + 2x = 150

                 10x = 150

                    x = 15  

Multiply ratio with constant from above:

  oranges : apples

       3 * 15 : 5 * 15

            45 : 75       ==>               45 oranges: 75 apples

  pears : apples

   2 * 15 : 5 * 15

        30 : 75          ==>                    30 pears: 75 apples

Check:

45 oranges + 75 apples + 30 pears = 150 fruits

Tim wants to ride his bike for 25 miles or less on some mountains bike trails . The table shows the distance of three different
Basile [38]

yo sup??

the sum of trails taken should be less than 25 miles

Black bear=B

Eagle Ridge=E

Doe Run=D

(btw names sound cool XD)

we will now try different combinations

B+E=7 1/2 ++ 10 1/4 which is clearly less than 25

B+D=7 1/2 + 8 3/4 which also less than 25

E+D=10 1/4 + 8 3/4 which is also less than 25

B+D+E=7 1/2 + 10 1/4 + 8 3/4 which is greater than 25

Therefore only the 1st,2nd and 3rd case are possible

Hope this helps.
