No solution because when you plug in the variables for x y and z none of them equal that correct number.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In math, every digit in a number has a place value. Place value can be defined as the value represented by a digit in a number on the basis of its position in the number. ... 8 is in ones place and its place value is 8. Understanding the place value of digits in numbers helps in writing numbers in their expanded form.
The is a 50% chance of being a boy or a girl.....previous siblings do not matter. Every child is an independent event. So even if u had 2 siblings that were boys, the result of the next one being a boy is still gonna be 50%...just as the odds of it being a girl, is 50% as well.
Answer:
(b)0.56
(c)0.38
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
P(Ben Pass) =0.8
Therefore: P(Ben fails)=1-0.8 =0.2
P(Tom Pass) =0.7
Therefore: P(Tom fails)=1-0.7 =0.3
See attached for the completed tree diagram
(b)Probability that both will pass
P(both will pass)=P(Ben pass and Tom pass)
=P(Ben pass) X P(Tom pass)
=0.8 X 0.7
=0.56
(c)The probability that only one of them will pass
Since either Tom or Ben can pass, we have:
P(only one of them will pass)
=P(Ben pass and Tom fails OR Ben Fails and Tom Pass)
=P(Ben pass and Tom fails)+P(Ben Fails and Tom Pass)
=(0.8 X 0.3) + (0.2 X 0.7)
=0.24 + 0.14
=0.38
48-126=-78
-78/126= -0.<span>619047619
-0.</span>619047619x100=<span>61.9047619%
This can be rounded to 62%
Hope this helps :)</span>
