2. The route used by a certain motorist in commuting to work contains two intersections with traffic signals. The probability th

at he must stop at the first signal is 0.36, the analogous probability for the second signal is 0.54, and the probability that he must stop at at least one of the two signals is 0.65. What is the probability that he must stop at exactly one signal?

Answer:

0.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of stopping at first signal = 0.36 ;

P(stop 1) = P(x) = 0.36

Probability of stopping at second signal = 0.54;

P(stop 2) = P(y) = 0.54

Probability of stopping at atleast one of the two signals:

P(x U y) = 0.6

Stopping at both signals :

P(xny) = p(x) + p(y) - p(xUy)

P(xny) = 0.36 + 0.54 - 0.6

P(xny) = 0.3

Stopping at x but not y

P(x n y') = P(x) - P(xny) = 0.36 - 0.3 = 0.06

Stopping at y but not x

P(y n x') = P(y) - P(xny) = 0.54 - 0.3 = 0.24

Probability of stopping at exactly 1 signal :

P(x n y') or P(y n x') = 0.06 + 0.24 = 0.30

Hi!! What do you need help with? Solving the problems? Or understanding them? Also 1-9 is a bit blurry, so if you could retake it and repost it, I could solve for them. :). But if you don’t want to, don’t worry.

Step-by-step explanation:

The third order polynomial is factored herein:

x^{2}\cdot (x-11) - 7\cdot (x-11)

(x^{2}-7)\cdot (x-11)

Which represents answer A.

A border to surround a picture is to be cut from a 10 1/2 in by 10 1/2 in mat board. If picture is 8 3/4 in by 8 3/4 in what is
Lilit [14]
Since the dimensions of the length and width are equal, then the board and the picture are squares. The width of the board is the margin surrounding the picture. Let's denote the width to be x. The length of the picture plus the length of the width at both ends should equal the length of the board. So, the equation should be:

10 1/2 in = 8 3/4 + 2x
Solving for x
x = 7/8 inches
