A person travels 10 miles due north, then 5 miles due west, then 14 miles due north and then 12 miles due east. How far is that
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
North and Souths get added together. North is positive and South is negative.
East and West get added together. East is positive and West is negative.
This will get us two numbers for a triangle that we can make starting at the origin and ending where the two numbers take us.
10 miles north + 14 miles north = 24 miles north
10 + 14 = 24
5 miles west + 12 miles east = 7 miles east
-5 + 12 = 7

Step-by-step explanation:
given that a cell phone company has three different production sites
Site name 1 2 3 Total
Production 60% 30% 10% 100%
Recalled 5% 7% 9%
Prob for recall 0.003 0.021 0.009 0.033
Total probability for recall = 0.033
Prob for recall and came from site 3 = 0.009
So required probability
= If a randomly selected cell phone has been recalled, what is the probability that it came from Site 3
=
the answer is
subtract 6x on both sides →
divide both sides by -2y →
