Answer:

The probability that Pete passes his test given that he studied = (8/10) = (4/5) = 0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event that Pete studies be S.

Let the event that Pete passes the test be P.

The probability that he studies for his test and then passes it is P(S n P) = 7/10

The probability that Pete studies is P(S) = 7/8

The probability that Pete passes his test given that he studied = P(P|S)

The conditional probability, P(A|B) is given mathematically as

P(A|B) = P(A n B) ÷ P(B)

So, the required probability, P(P|S) will be

P(P|S) = P(P n S) ÷ P(S)

P(P n S) = P(S n P) = (7/10)

P(S) = (7/8)

P(P|S) = P(P n S) ÷ P(S)

= (7/10) ÷ (7/8)

= (7/10) × (8/7)

= (8/10) = (4/5) = 0.80

The probability that Pete passes his test given that he studied = (8/10) = (4/5) = 0.80

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

6 hours or less

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation then plug in 73.40 for y because that is the max they want to spend. Solve for t

y=6.90t+32\\73.40=6.90t+32\\ 41.4=6.90t\\6=t

An asprin tablet in a shape of a right circular cylinder has the height of 2/5 cm and the raidus of 1/2cm. the manufacturer also
PSYCHO15rus [73]
Volume of the tablet is height times pi r squared = .4cm x pi x .5^2 = pi cm^3 So, the tablet has a volume of pi cubic centimeters (cc). We want the capsule to have the same volume. The two hemispherical ends put together make one sphere. The volume of a sphere is 4/3 pi r^3. And the cylindrical part is the same formula as the first one, but we don't know what r is, height x pi x r^2. pi cc = height x pie x r^2 + 4/3 pi r^3 Here, we took the value from the original problem and made it equal to the two ends of the capsule (together were the sphere) PLUS the rest (which is a cylinder.) Now, divide everything by pi to factor it out of the equation. cc = height x r^2 + 4/3 r^3 The problem told us that the total length is 5/3 cm, this means the cylinder height + the radius times two = 5/3. (Wish I could draw you a picture) So height in the equation at the beginning of this paragraph is 5/3 - 2r. Now we have volume in cc = (5/3 - 2r)r^2 + 4/3 r^3 = 5/3r^2 - 2r^3 + 4/3r^3 simplified by combining common terms, and written in standard form, volume in cc = 2 r^3 + 5/3 r^2 = 1 = r^2 ( r - 5/3) , factoring out the r^2. this means that r^2 is the reciprocal of r - 5/3, or r^2 = 1/(r - 5/3), and this is a quadratic equation. r^2 - r + .6 = 0 and r^2 -r + .25 = -.6 + .25 by completing the square or (r - .25)^2 = -.35. Solve for r: square root of r - .25 = square root of .35 or .59 r = .84 cm

If a number has an explanation point on the side of it, you should multiply all numbers that are equal to are less than that number.

5!=5*4*3*2*1=120\\2!=2*1=2\\120+2=122
