Alice solves every puzzle with probability 0.6 , and Bob, with probability 0.5 . They are given 7 puzzles and each chooses 5 out

of the 7 puzzles randomly and solves them independently. A puzzle is considered solved if at least one of them solves it. What is the probability that all the 7 puzzles happen to be solved by at least one of them

Answer:

0.021943

Step-by-step explanation:

Alice solves every puzzle with a probability of  0.6

Bob solves every puzzle with a probability of 0.5

Number of puzzles given = 7

The probability of a puzzle been solved by either Alice or Bob

P = P( A U B ) = P( A ) + P( B ) - P( A n B )

                      =  0.6 + 0.5 - ( 0.6 * 0.5 )  = 0.8

probability of all 7 puzzles solved = (P( A ))^2 * ( P )^3 * (p(B))^2

                                                        = ( 0.6 )^2 * (0.8)^3 * (0.5)^2 = 0.04608

Finally determine the P ( choosing 5 out of 7 for both such that all the 7 are chosen )

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

Question o
taurus [48]

The equation -21t - 4 = 10 - 2t has only one solution

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, equation is – 21t – 4 = 10 – 2t  

We have to find how many solutions does the above given equation have  

Now, let us solve the given equation to find the number of solutions it has.

Then, - 21t – 4 = 10 – 2t

Taking like terms to one side of the equation we get,

- 21t + 2t = 10 + 4  

\begin{array}{l}{-19 t=14} \\\\ {19 t=-14} \\\\ {t=-\frac{14}{19}}\end{array}

here we can see only one value of t.

Hence, the given equation has only one solution.

Which lists the fractions 2/3 , 5/6 , 7/12 from least to greatest
Zielflug [23.3K]

Ans.

7/12 , 2/3 , 5/6

Why:

If we give all the fractions the same denominator then the fractions are, 8/12 , 10/12 , 7/12. We then can easily see what is the order. Once ordered correctly, just simplifiy.

An oil company is drilling for oil at three sites. According to geological tests, the probabilities of
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Probability of finding oil at site 1 is 0.30

Probability of finding oil at site 2 is 0.15

Probability of finding oil at site 3 is 0.20

Probability of Finding oil at all three sites

i.e. oil is present in all three sites simultaneously

=0.3\times 0.15\times 0.20=0.009

Probability of not finding oil at any of these sites=(1-0.3)\cdot (1-0.15)\cdot (1-0.2)=0.476

Complement of Finding oil at all three sites is equivalent to not finding the oil at all three sites

i.e. A'\cap B'\cap C'

Complement of not finding oil at any of the sites is equivalent to probability of finding oil at any of the given sites

A\cup B' \cup C' or

'\cup B \cup C' or

A'\cup B' \cup C
