So,
We are trying to find the compound probability of there BEING oil and the test predicting NO oil.
The percent chance of there actually being oil is 45%. We can convert this into fraction form and simplify it.
45% -->




That is the simplified fraction form.
The kit has an 80% accuracy rate. Since we are assuming that the land has oil, we need the probability that the kit predicts no oil.
The probability that the kit detects no oil will be the chance that the kit is not accurate, which is 20% (100 - 80 = 20). We can also convert this into fraction form and simplify it.
20% -->



That is the probability of the kit not being accurate (not predicting any oil).
To find the compound probability of there being oil and the kit not predicting any oil, we simply multiply both fractions together.



So the probability of there BEING oil and the kit predicting NO oil is 9 in 100 chances.
Yes. Think of it as a fraction -
12/6 reduces to 4/2.
4/2 > 3/2.
Answer:
Y=0.1(1.25)^t is growth. Y=426(0.98)^t is decay. Y=100(1-1/2)^t is decay. Y=((1-0.03) 1/2) ^2t is decay. And y=2050(1/2)^t is decay. Hope this helps!

Answer:
Terrell drove 200 miles one way
Step-by-step explanation:
Since his trip concluded at 9 hours, let's say that x = time traveled at 40 mph
and 9 - x = time traveled at 50 mph
D = (rate) x (time)
<em>40x = 50(9 - x)</em> -----Use Distributive property on the right side of the equation
<em>40x = 450 - 50x</em><em> </em>-----Add 50x on both sides
<em>90x = 450</em> ------Divide by 90 on both sides
We end up with<em> x = 5 </em>which is the value we need to determine the distance of our first trip, calculated by
<em>D = 40x</em>, or <em>40(5) = 200 mi</em>
Answer:
The amount of reward that Sophia receives is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x------> amount of reward that Sophia receives
y-----> amount of reward that Isabella receives
we know that

------> equation A
-----> equation B
Substitute equation A in equation B



Find the value of x
