Probability (Ball goes into hole) = 0.22388 or 22.388%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ball goes into hole = 15 times

Ball miss the hole = 52 times

Find:

Probability (Ball goes into hole)

Computation:

Total number of tries = 15 + 52

Total number of tries = 67

Probability (Ball goes into hole) = 15 / 67

Probability (Ball goes into hole) = 0.22388 or 22.388%

( Part A: Ok 2,6 and 6,2 and 0,3 and 4.5,6 you can add 2,6 and every other number with part b which is 2,6 +0,3= 2,3 and also 2,6+4.5,6= 6.5,12 and you can do the same with 6,2 and you will get 6,5 and 10.5,8)
(Part B: 2,3^6.5,12^6,5^10.5,8)

Number 8 and 9 pls, if u answer u get brainlist rank!

Answer:

Denote the equation : y = ax + b

Use the first 2 values of x and y in table:

3a + b = 21

5a + b = 35

Subtract the 2 equations:

=> 2a = 14 => a = 7 => b = 21 - 3 x 7 = 0

=> The solution is y = 7x

Denote the equation : y = ax + b

Use the first 2 values of x and y in table:

5a + b = 17

10a + b = 22

Subtract the 2 equations:

=> 5a = 5 => a = 1 => b = 17 - 5 x 1 = 17 - 5 = 12

=> The solution is y = x + 12

Hope this helps!

Lian is deciding which of two gyms to join. Each gym charges a monthly rate plus a one-time membership fee. Lian correctly wrote

lapo4ka [179]

The resulting equation 75 = 75 is an identity; this tells that the two equations of the system are equivalent, this is they both represent the same function. So, Lian can conclude that (option c) both gyms charge the same monthly rate and the same membership fee.

Answer:

$P(U |D ) = 0.198$

$P(O\ n \ B) = 0.188$

$P(O | B) = 0.498$

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of deaths is mathematically represented as

$T = 16 + 23 + \cdots + 16$

$T =623$

The total number of deaths in 1996 - 2000 is mathematically represented as

$T_a = 16 + 23+ \cdots + 30$

$T_a = 235$

The total number of deaths in 2001 - 2005 is mathematically represented as

$T_b = 17 + 16 + \cdots + 23$

$T_b = 206$

The total number of deaths in 2006 - 2010 is mathematically represented as

$T_c = 15 + 17 + \cdots + 16$

$T_d = 182$

Generally the the probability that it would occur under the tree given that the death was after 2000 is mathematically represented as

$P(U |D ) = \frac{P(A \ n\ U )}{P(A)}$

Here $P(A \ n\ U )$ represents the probability that it was after 2000 and it was under the tree and this is mathematically represented as

$P(A \ n\ U ) = \frac{Z}{ T}$

Here Z is the total number of death under the tree after 2000 and it is mathematically represented as

$Z = 35 + 42$

=> $Z = 77$

=> $P(A \ n\ U ) = \frac{77}{ 623}$

Also

$P(A)$ is the probability of the death occurring after 2000 and this is mathematically represented as

$P(A) = \frac{T_b + T_c}{ T}$

=> $P(A) = \frac{ 206+ 182}{623}$

$P(U |D ) = \frac{\frac{77}{ 623} }{ \frac{ 206+ 182}{623}}$

=> $P(U |D ) = 0.198$

Generally the probability that the death was from camping or being outside and was before 2001 is mathematically represented as

$P(O | B) = \frac{T_z}{ T}$

Here $T_z$ is the total number of death outside / camping before 2001 and the value is 117

$P(O \ n \ B) = \frac{117}{623}$

=> $P(O\ n \ B) = 0.188$

Generally the probability that the death was from camping or being outside given that it was before 2001 is mathematically represented as

$P(O | B) = \frac{ P( O \ n \ B)}{ P(B)}$

Here $P(B)$ is the probability that it was before 2001 , this is mathematically represented as

$P(B ) = \frac{T_a}{T}$

=> $P(B ) = \frac{235}{623}$

$P(O | B) = \frac{ \frac{117}{623}}{ \frac{235}{623}}$

=> $P(O | B) = 0.498$
