Let BS be the event that the patient survives bypass surgery.
Let H be the event that the heart damage will heal.
Then P(BS) = 0.60, and also we have a conditional probability: GIVEN that the patient survives,
the probability that the heart damage will heal is 0.5, that is P(H|BS) = 0.5
We want to know P(BS and H).
Using the formula of the conditional probability:
P(H and BS) = P(H|BS)·P(BS) = (0.6)(0.5) = 0.3
As a decimal 4/15 = 0.2666667
As a decimal 3/10 = 0.3 [talk about close]
3/10 is bigger.
You could take an average to find something between 4/15 and 3/10
1/2(4/15 + 2/10)
1/2(8/30 + 6/30)
1/2(14/30)
1/2(7/15)
7/30 is between the two given numbers..
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
6x+5=11
6x=11-5
6x=6
x=1
you first plug (substitute) in y
-3x - 3(-5x-17)=3
then distribute
-3x+15x+51=3
now combine like terms
12x+51=3
subtract to get 12x by itself
12x=3-51 or 12x=-48
lastly divide by 12 to find x
12x/12=-48/12
x=-4
now find y by plugging x into the other equation
y=-5(-4)-17
y=3
(-4,3)
Answer:
1800 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May = 75
It is given that miles driven in July is 6 times of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May(75 miles).
Thus
No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July = 6 * No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May = 6*75 = 450 miles.
__________________________________________________
Another condition given that miles driven in June is 4 times of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July(450miles as calculated above).
Thus
No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in June = 4 * No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July = 4* 450 miles = 1800 miles.
No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in June is 1800 miles.
