Whether the events are dependent or not, the rule for conditional probability applies:
P(a|b) = P(a∩b)/P(b)
P(a|b)×P(b) = P(a∩b)
0.25×0.4 = P(a∩b) = 0.1

The appropriate choice is
C. 0.1

Totally cellular charges $30 for a monthly plan, with an additional .20 per text message. Gnarly Cells charges $40 for a monthly

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

100 texts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of text messages be x. Since we are looking at making both plans equal, we add the fixed monthly charges to the number of messages multiplied by the cost.

The total amount charged by Totally will be 30 + 0.2x

The total amount charged by Gnarly will be

40 + 0.1x

Now since we are trying to get the number of text messages that make both charges equal, we equate the two charges and that is:

30 + 0.2x = 40 + 0.1x

40 - 30 = 0.2x - 0.1x

0.1x = 10

x = 10/0.1 = 100 texts

Please help i have such a low GPA and i have to get it up so i can get into high school 100 points

enyata [817]

Answer:

Well, The volume of the sink shaped like a half sphere is [2000/3] π in^2.

a) The volume of a cylinder is the area of the base * height

For this part the cup has a diameter, d, of 4 in and height, h, of 8 in.

The area of the base is π (d/2)^2 = π (2 in)^2 = 4π in^2.

The volume of the cuo is 4π in^2 * 8 in = 32π in^3.

Then the number of cups to take the volume of [2000 / 3] π in^2 is:

[2000 / 3]π / [32π] = 20.83

Answer: 21 cups.

b) For this part the diameter of the cup is 8 in and the height is 8 in

Then the volume is π (4 in)^2 * 8 in = 128 ⇅ in^3

And the number of cups needed is [2000π/3] / (128π) = 5.2

Answer: 5 cups. Good Luck!

If the probability that your DVD player breaks down before the extended warranty expires is 0.034, what is the probability that

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

0.966

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Probability of DVD player breaking down before the warranty expires = 0.034

To find:

The probability that the player will not break down before the warranty expires = ?

Solution:

Here, The two events are:

1. The DVD player breaks down before the warranty gets expired.

2. The DVD player breaks down after the warranty gets expired

In other words, the 2nd event can be stated as:

The DVD does not break down before the warranty gets expired.

The two events here, have nothing in common i.e. they are mutually exclusive events.

So, Sum of their probabilities will be equal to 1.

$\bold{P(E_1)+P(E_2)=1}\\\Rightarrow 0.034+P(E_2)=1\\\Rightarrow P(E_2)=1-0.034\\\Rightarrow P(E_2)=\bold{0.966}$
