(x-2y=-5) (2x + 4y =14) what is the value of y

If a cylender has a volume of 340ft and a radius of three ft what is the height

rewona [7]

Answer:

h = 12.03

Substitute 22÷7 for pi.

h = V ÷ πr²

h = 340 ÷ (22÷7) × 3²

≈ 12.03

Of the entering class at a college, % attended public high school, % attended private high school, and % were home schoole

Veronika [31]

Answer:

(a) The probability that the student made the Dean's list is 0.1655.

(b) The probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list is 0.2411.

(c) The probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list is 0.9185.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Of the entering class at a college, 71% attended public high school, 21% attended private high school, and 8% were home schooled. Of those who attended public high school, 16% made the Dean's list, 19% of those who attended private high school made the Dean's list, and 15% of those who were home schooled made the Dean's list.

a) Find the probability that the student made the Dean's list.

b) Find the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list.

c) Find the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list.

Solution:

Denote the events as follows:

A = a student attended public high school

B = a student attended private high school

C = a student was home schooled

D = a student made the Dean's list

The provided information is as follows:

P (A) = 0.71

P (B) = 0.21

P (C) = 0.08

P (D|A) = 0.16

P (D|B) = 0.19

P (D|C) = 0.15

(a)

The law of total probability states that:

$P(X)=\sum\limits_{i} P(X|Y_{i})\cdot P(Y_{i})$

Compute the probability that the student made the Dean's list as follows:

$P(D)=P(D|A)P(A)+P(D|B)P(B)+P(D|C)P(C)$

$=(0.16\times 0.71)+(0.19\times 0.21)+(0.15\times 0.08)\\=0.1136+0.0399+0.012\\=0.1655$

Thus, the probability that the student made the Dean's list is 0.1655.

(b)

Compute the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list as follows:

$P(B|D)=\frac{P(D|B)P(B)}{P(D)}$

$=\frac{0.21\times 0.19}{0.1655}\\\\=0.2410876\\\\\approx 0.2411$

Thus, the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list is 0.2411.

(c)

Compute the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list as follows:

$P(C^{c}|D^{c})=1-P(C|D^{c})$

$=1-\frac{P(D^{c}|C)P(C)}{P(D^{c})}\\\\=1-\frac{(1-P(D|C))\times P(C)}{1-P(D)}\\\\=1-\frac{(1-0.15)\times 0.08}{(1-0.1655)}\\\\=1-0.0815\\\\=0.9185$

Thus, the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list is 0.9185.

The Correct Answer Is?

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Hello!

n≤-1/2 means that n is less than the open circle, because an open circle means the variable can not be equal to that point. so your answer is: D

I hope this helps, and have a nice day.

There are three cabinets, A, B, and C,each of which has 2 drawers. Each drawer has 1 coin: A has 2 gold coins, B has 2 silver co

Llana [10]

Only cabinet with two silver coins is cabinet B.
The chance of choosing cabinet B is 1/3.
Thus, there is a 1/3 chance of the two cabinets contain 2 silver coins.
