It will take Wanda and Miranda 0.375 hours to be 9 miles apart

Wanda's speed = 6 miles per hour

Miranda's speed = 30 miles per hour

Distance = Speed x time

Find the distance covered by Wanda in t hours

D_{wanda} = 6t

Find the distance covered by Miranda in t hours

D_{miranda} = 30t

Difference in the distances covered

D_{miranda} - D_{wanda} = 30t-6t\\\\D_{miranda} - D_{wanda} = 24t

The difference in their distance is 9 miles

9 = 24t

To find the time, divide both sides by 9

\frac{9}{24} = \frac{24}{24}t\\\\t =   \frac{9}{24}\\\\t = 0.375

It will take Wanda and Miranda 0.375 hours to be 9 miles apart

Of the 80 boys polled at lunch, 55% say they play video games daily. According to the poll, how many boys play video games daily
alexdok [17]

55% = \frac{55}{100} = \frac{11}{20}

Multiply \frac{11}{20} by 80 and you will get how many boys play video games daily.

\frac{11}{20}*80=\frac{11}{1}*4=11*4=44

44 is the number of boys who play video games daily.

If p(a|b) = 0.35, p(b) = 0.75 and p(a) = 0.44 are the events a and b independent ?
MatroZZZ [7]
Hello : 
note 1 : 
 p(A|B) = p(A∩B)/<span> p(B)

note 2 : 
</span> A and B independent: p(A∩B) = p(A)×p(B)
calculate : p(A∩B)
p(A∩B) = p(A|B)×p(B)
p(A∩B) = 0.35 ×0.75 = 0.2625
but :  p(A)×p(B) = 0.44×0.75 = 0.33
 conclusion : 
<span>the events A and B  are not  independent ?</span>
