A student takes the same street from his home to the university every day. There are 3 streetlights along the way, and he has no

ticed the following Markov dependence. If he sees a green light at an intersection, then 77% of time the next light is also green. However, if he sees a red light, then 77% of time the next light is also red. (Assume the chance of him seeing a yellow light is zero.) If the first light is green, what is the probability that the third light is red

Answer:

0.3542 = 35.42% probability that the third light is red

Step-by-step explanation:

For each light:

If it is green, 77% probability that the next is green.

If it is red, 77% probability that the next is red.

If the first light is green, what is the probability that the third light is red?

These following outcomes are desired, for the second and third lights:

G - R(0.77, then 1 - 0.77 = 0.23 probability)

R - R(0.23, then 0.77 probability).

So the desired probability is:

p = 0.77*0.23 + 0.23*0.77 = 0.3542

0.3542 = 35.42% probability that the third light is red

Find the midpoint of the segment with endpoints of 6+3i and -12-5i
Vlad1618 [11]
Remark
All you need do is add the two points  together and divide by 2.

\frac{6+ 3i - 12 - 5i }{2}

Group the like terms.

\frac{6-12 + 3i-5i}{2}
\frac{-6-2i }{2}
\frac{-6\div 2-2i\div2}{1}

Answer: Midpoint = -3 - i

What does 81% 90% 80% and 34% average into 20 points
Alja [10]

Answer:

71.25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average, we can simply add up the percentages and divide by how many there are.

We can do this by:

\frac{81 + 90 + 80 + 34}{4} = 71.25%

What is the slope of line PQ?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line passing through two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is given by the formula,

Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Slope of the line PQ passing through the two points P(-8, 2) and Q(4, 2) will be,

Slope 'm_1' = \frac{2-2}{-8-2} = 0

Therefore, slope of the line PQ parallel to the x-axis = 0

Slope of the line MN passing through the points M(8, 6) and N(8, -8) is,

Slope 'm_2' = \frac{6+8}{8-8} = ∞

Therefore, slope of the line MN parallel to y-axis is undefined.

Since, angle between the x-axis and y-axis is 90°,angle at the intersection  point between the lines parallel to x and y axis will be 90°.

These lines are perpendicular to each other.
