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

Mathematics
1 answer:
Natali [406]3 years ago
6 0

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. :)

Circumference of a circle - derivation

This page describes how to derive the formula for the circumference of a circle.

Recall that the definition of pi (π) is the circumference c of any circle divided by its diameter d. Put as an equation, pi is defined as

π

=

c

d

Rearranging this to solve for c we get

c

=

π

d

The diameter of a circle is twice its radius, so substituting 2r for d

c

=

2

π

r

If you know the area

Recall that the area of a circle is given by

area

=

π

r

2

Solving this for r

r

2

=

a

π

So

r

=

√

a

π

The circumference c of a circle is

c

=

2

π

Quick algebra 1 question for 10 points!
NeTakaya

Answer:

12.50h = 2500.75

Step-by-step explanation:

He earned $12.50 for 1 hour of work.

For 2 hours, he earned $12.50 × 2.

For 3 hours, he earned $12.50 × 3.

For h hours, he earned $12.50 × h which can be simply written as 12.50h

He earned altogether $2500.75, so 12.50h must equal 2500.75.

Answer: B 12.50h = 2500.75

Write the following number as ratios of integers
s2008m [1.1K]

Our goal here is to somehow "surgically remove" the repeating part of the number, so let's start by putting the original value in a variable and messing around with it a bit.

We'll let x=7.\overline{6}. We want to cut the 0.\overline{6} bit off completely, so let's create the scalpel that'll let us do that. If x=7.\overline{6}, then we can also say that 10x=76.\overline{6}. Maybe I was lying a bit: the x is our real scalpel here, and 10x is where we'll be making the cut. Mathematically, a "cut" is almost always shorthand for subtraction, so let's see what our operation (cutting x off of 10x) leaves us with:

10x-x=76.\overline{6}-7.\overline{6}\\9x=69

The operation was a success! We can now simply divide either side by 9 to find x = 69/9, which, when reduced by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3, gives us x=23/3

PLEASE HELP!!<br><br> what is the explicit formula for this sequence -7, -4, -1, 2, 5
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The explicit formula for the given expression is a_n=-10+3n.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is

-7, -4, -1, 2, 5

The difference between two consecutive terms is same, therefore the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

The first term of the given AP is -7 and the common difference is

-4-(-7)=-4+7=3

The explicit formula for an AP is

a_n=a+(n-1)d

Where, a is first term, d is common difference and n is number of terms.

Substitute a=-7 and d=3 in the above equation.

a_n=-7+(n-1)3

a_n=-7+3n-3

a_n=-10+3n

Therefore the explicit formula for the given expression is a_n=-10+3n.
