Answer:

0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

P(speeding) = p(s) = 0.75

P(being stopped) = p(t)

P(speeding and gets stopped) = p(s n t) = 0.25

Find the probability that he is stopped, given that he is speeding is written as P(t | s) ;

P(t | s) = p(s n t) / p(s)

P(s n t) = 0.25

P(s) = 0.75

Hence,

P(t | s) = 0.25 / 0.75

P(t | s) = 0.33

Evaluate 8p5 and 12C4. please show answer step by step.
Valentin [98]
Hey there :)

8P5 and 12C4

⁸P₅ = is 8! divided by ( 8 - 5 )!

! is called the factorial 
You can see in the picture I have attached of how factorial is calculated

\frac{8!}{(8-5)!} = \frac{8!}{3!}

Let us do it separately:
8! = 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 40320
3! = 3 x 2 x 1 = 6

Let us combine:
\frac{40320}{6} = 6720

¹²C₄ is 12! divided by ( 4! times ( 12 - 4 )! )

\frac{12!}{(4!(12-4)!)} = \frac{12!}{(4!)(8!)}

Let us do it separately:
12! = 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 479001600
( 4! )( 8! ) = ( 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 )( 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 ) = 24 x 41320 = 967680

Let us combine:
\frac{478001600}{967680} = 495

Help please: A bus and a train leave a station at the same time, t = 0. The graph shows the bus's distance to the next station o
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

y = (5/2)x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bus and train are both at the station at time 0, the y-intercept for the new equation is 20. That is one point on the new graph: (0,20) The question said that the train travels faster, that means it spends less time getting to the next station. The existing graph shows the bus got to the next station in 10 minutes, so maybe the train got there in 8 minutes. So another point on the graph is (8,0) We can use a slope formula to calculate the slope of a new line. Or just count squares on the graph (se image) to find the slope. Slope tells how steep a line is, whether the line is going up or down, but also the slope is like directions how to get from one point to another point on the line.

All you need to write an equation is the slope, m and the y-intercept, b and fill those two numbers into the formula y=mx+b Here slope is 5/2 and y-intercept is 20. So you get

y=(5/2)x +20

10 2/6 - 7 5/6 i know its prob easy but i need help
miv72 [106K]

Answer: 2 1/3

Explanation:

10 2/6 - 7 5/6

You can make both a fraction by multiplying the denominator by the whole number, and then adding the numerator to that number, and keeping the denominator the same. So, 10*6 = 60 and 60 + 2 = 62 and you keep the denominator as 6, which would make 62/6

7*6 = 42 and 42 + 5 = 47 so 7 5/6 becomes 47/6

10 2/6 is equivalent to 62/6

7 5/6 is equivalent to 47/6

This just makes it easier to look at.

Now you just work through the equation.

62/6 - 47/6 = 15/6

15/6 = 2 3/6 = 2 1/3
