Solve each system of linear equations by substitution

Answer:

Y is 90 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an equalterial triangle which means all of the angles are the same. The angle for the upper part of the triangle is 60 as well. We can do 2x=60 because they add up to the angle which is 60. This gives us x=30. If x=30 and the other angle is 60, then the other angle has to be 90 because all triangle has an angle sum of 180. So 30 +60 + 90= 180. Hope this helps!

Larissa takes a dose of 4 drops of medicine every day, three times a day. One milliliter (mL) of the medicine contains about 20

professor190 [17]

Answer:

The bottle will last for 20 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of drops in a dose = 4 drops

Dose is taken three times a day, therefore,

Number of drops taken in a day = 4*3 = 12 drops

One milliliter = 20 drops

12 mL = 20*12 = 240 drops

Number of days the bottle will last can be find out by calculating total number of drops by the number of drops consumed in a day.

Number of days bottle will last = $\frac{240}{12}=20$

Hence,

The bottle will last for 20 days.

In a certain clinical study, 15% of participants were classified as heavy smokers, 25% as light-smokers, and the rest as non-smo

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

There is a 28.57% probability that a randomly selected participant who died by the end of the study was a non-smoker.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following probabilities:

A 15% probability that a participant is classified as a heavy smoker.

A 25% probability that a participant is classified as a light smoker.

A 100% - 25% - 15% = 60% probability that a participant is classified as a non smoker.

A x% probability that a non smoker dies.

A 3x% probability that a light smoker dies.

A 5x% probability that a heavy smoker dies.

This can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}$

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

This problem is:

What is the probability of the participant being a non-smoker, given that he died?

P(B) is the probability that the participant is a non smoker. So

$P(B) = 0.6$

P(A/B) is the probability that the participant dies, given that he is a non smoker. So:

$P(A/B) = x$

P(A) is the probability that the participant dies:

$P(A) = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3}$

$P_{1}$ is the probability that a heavy smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{1} = 0.15*5x = 0.75x$

$P_{2}$ is the probability that a light smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{2} = 0.25*3x = 0.75x$

$P_{3}$ is the probability that a non-smoker is selected and that he dies. So:

$P_{3} = 0.60*x = 0.60x$

The probability that a participant dies is:

$P(A) = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3} = 0.75x + 0.75x + 0.60x = 2.10x$

The probability of the participant being a non-smoker, given that he died, is:

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.6x}{2.10x} = \frac{0.6}{2.10} = 0.2857$

There is a 28.57% probability that a randomly selected participant who died by the end of the study was a non-smoker.
