Answer:

a) 34.3%

b) 49%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the probability of a sequence of events, we need to multiply each individual probability by the others in decimal form. Therefore, we need to turn these probabilities into decimal form by dividing them by 100 like so..

70% / 100 = 0.70

Now we multiply all of them together and multiply the product by 100 to get the percentage.

0.70 * 0.70 * 0.70 = 0.343

0.343 * 100 = 34.3%

34.3% is the probability of it raining on all three days. Now to find the probability of it raining on two consecutive days we do the same but multiply only 2 probabilities

0.70 * 0.70 = 0.49

0.49 * 100 = 49%

In a 2560 gallons there are 1944gallons left after two weeks how many days a whole tank will last
bazaltina [42]
In this problem all the necessary informations are provided. Total capacity of the tank is given as 2560 gallons. It is also given that after 2 weeks or 14 days , only 1944 gallons of water is left. The number of days the whole tank will be empty is required to be found.
Let us assume that the number of days required to empty the tank = x
Then
Now amount of water consumed in 14 days = 2560 - 1944
                                                                       = 616 gallons
So
616 gallons of water used in = 14 days
2560 gallons of water will be used in = (14/616) * 2560
                                                           = 58.18
Then the whole tank will last approximately 58 days if calculated to the nearest whole number.
