The probability I take a nap today is 4/5. The probability I will take a nap and a bubble bath today

Natali [406]3 years ago

Use Bayes Theorem to compute that probability. I will denote bath as B and nap as N, the probability will be denoted as P(B) or P(N).

By Bayes Theorem

P(B\mid N)=\frac{P(N\mid B)\cdot P(B)}{P(N)}

Which reads,

"What is the probability of B given N".

We know that P(N\mid B) is 1 because we already took a bath. So the formula simplifies to,

P(B\mid N)=\frac{P(B)}{P(N)}

Now insert the data,

P(B\mid N)=\frac{1/5}{4/5}=\boxed{\frac{1}{4}}

So the probability that you will take a bath is 0.25 after you have taken a nap.

Hope this helps. :)

Barbara charges $3.50, plus $2.25 for each hour she babysits. If Barbara charges $21.50, how many hours does she babysit?
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is 2.25X + 3.50 = 21.50

X represents the unknown amount of hours she worked. 2.25 is the cost per hour. 3.50 is the fee she charges for every gig. That fee only happens once a gig so naturally it wasn't the number x was placed with.

2.25X + 3.50 = 21.50

2.25X + 3.50 - 3.50 = 21.50 - 3.50

2.25X = 18

<u>2.25X</u> = <u>1</u><u>8</u>

2.25 2.25

X = 8

The answer is 3

(4x+9i)(4x−9i) = (4x+9i)*4x -9i((4x+9i)) = 16x2 +36i -36i -81i2 = 16x² -81(-1)

= 16x² +81
