Answer:

∠RPQ = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔSRQ,

∠R = 90

∠SQR = 36°

∠R + ∠SQR + ∠RSQ = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}

90 + 36 + ∠RSQ = 180

126 + ∠RSQ = 180

∠RSQ = 180 - 126

∠RSQ = 54°

∠PSQ +∠RSQ = 180 {Linear pair}

∠PSQ + 54 = 180

∠PSQ = 180 - 54

∠PSQ = 126

In ΔPSQ,

SQ = PS ,

So, ∠SQP = ∠SPQ {Angles opposite to equal sides are equal}

∠SQP = ∠SPQ =x

∠PSQ + x +x = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}

126 + 2x = 180

2x = 180 - 126

2x = 54

x = 54/2

x = 27

∠RPQ = 27°

After the tour, Tyler’s mom bought a pretzel and a bottle of water for each family member. The bottles of water cost $1.50 each.

Delicious77 [7]

Each pretzel is 4.5 $

1.50 • 5 = 7.5
7.5 - 30 = 22.5
22.5 / 5 = 4.5

so in conclusion, those are some expensive a** pretzels.

An e-mail filter is planned to separate valid e-mails from spam. The word free occurs in 60% of the spam messages and only 4% of

ANEK [815]

Answer:

(a) 0.152

(b) 0.789

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the events as follows:

F = The word free occurs in an email

S = The email is spam

V = The email is valid.

The information provided to us are:

The probability of the word free occurring in a spam message is, $P(F|S)=0.60$
The probability of the word free occurring in a valid message is, $P(F|V)=0.04$
The probability of spam messages is,

$P(S)=0.20$

First let's compute the probability of valid messages:

$P (V) = 1 - P(S)\\=1-0.20\\=0.80$

(a)

To compute the probability of messages that contains the word free use the rule of total probability.

The rule of total probability is:

$P(A)=P(A|B)P(B)+P(A|B^{c})P(B^{c})$

The probability that a message contains the word free is:

$P(F)=P(F|S)P(S)+P(F|V)P(V)\\=(0.60*0.20)+(0.04*0.80)\\=0.152\\$

The probability of a message containing the word free is 0.152

(b)

To compute the probability of messages that are spam given that they contain the word free use the Bayes' Theorem.

The Bayes' theorem is used to determine the probability of an event based on the fact that another event has already occurred. That is,

$P(A|B)=\frac{P(B|A)P(A)}{P(B)}$

The probability that a message is spam provided that it contains free is:

$P(S|F)=\frac{P(F|S)P(S)}{P(F)}\\=\frac{0.60*0.20}{0.152} \\=0.78947\\$

The probability that a message is spam provided that it contains free is approximately 0.789.

(c)

To compute the probability of messages that are valid given that they do not contain the word free use the Bayes' Theorem. That is,

$P(A|B)=\frac{P(B|A)P(A)}{P(B)}$

The probability that a message is valid provided that it does not contain free is:

$P(V|F^{c})=\frac{P(F^{c}|V)P(V)}{P(F^{c})} \\=\frac{(1-P(F|V))P(V)}{1-P(F)}\\=\frac{(1-0.04)*0.80}{1-0.152} \\=0.90566$

The probability that a message is valid provided that it does not contain free is approximately 0.906.

nalin [4]

Answer: There are 90 snack boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of kinds of fruits = 5

The number of kinds of herbal teas = 3

The number of kinds of flavors of wrap sandwich = 6

Then by using the fundamental principal of counting, the number of possible snack are there will be :_

$5\times3\times6= 90$

Therefore, the number of possible snacks = 90
