Answer:

Probability of a train on line A arriving on time: 80%

Probability of any train arriving on time: 96%

Step-by-step explanation:

If 18 of the 90 incoming trains on line A arrive late, we have that 90 - 18 = 72 trains of the 90 arrive on time, so the probability of a train on line A arriving on time is:

P(A) = 72/90 = 0.8 = 80%

on line B, we have that 70 - 14 = 56 trains of the 70 arrived in time, so the probability of a train from line B arriving on time is:

P(B) = 56/70 = 0.8 = 80%

To find the probability of any train arriving on time, we can use this formula:

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

P(A or B) = 0.8 + 0.8 - 0.8*0.8

P(A or B) = 1.6 - 0.64 = 0.96 = 96%

Does anyone know what the simplest form is? Will give brainiest
Ahat [919]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Choice B.

Discussion:

From the first step

324 x^6 y^ 8 =  

2^2 * 3^4 * x^2 * x^4* y^8

so the fourth root of this is

2 ^(2/4)*  3^(4/4) x^(2/4)* x^(4/4)*y^(8/4) =

2^ (1/2) * 3^1 * x^(1/2) * x^(1)* y^ (2) =

(2x)^(1/2) * 3 * x * y^2 =

3 * x * y^2 * sqrt(2x) =

3 * x * y^2 * ( (2x)^2) ^ (1/4)) =

3 * x * y^2 * (4x^2) ^ (1/4)

which is choice B

Thank you,

MrB

Write two equivalent fractions for 10 to 3
saw5 [17]
20/6 because 20 x 3 = 6 x 10 = 60. 309 is equivalent to 10/3 because 30 x 3 = 9 x 10 = 90.
40/12 is equivalent to 10/3 because 40 x 3 = 12 x 10 = 120.
