Probability that both roads from a to b are blocked is the product of the individual probabilities, i.e.
P(~ab)=0.25*0.25=0.0625
Similarly
P(~bc)=0.25*0.25=0.0625
Probability that EITHER one or both of ab and bc are blocked is the sum of the probabilities:
P(~ab ∪ ~bc)=0.0625+0.0625=0.125
(recall that one cannot travel from a to c if either ab or bc is blocked.)
Therefore the probability that there exists an open route from a to c
= P(ac) = 1-P(~ab ∪ ~bc)
= 1 - 0.125
=0.875
Answer:
x=-6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
he area that is un-shaded is (x-3)(x-6).
The entire area is (2x+2)(3x-4).
Area of the shaded region is:
(2x+2)(3x-4) - (x-3)(x-6) =
(6x2-2x-8) - (x2-9x+18) =
6x2-2x-8-x2+9x-18 =
5x2+7x-26 hopes this help btw (;
We can solve this two different ways. I'll do both, and you choose which one makes the most sense:
We can divide the fraction 3/4 by 12. remember, when we divide fractions, we flip the second fraction and change the sign to multiplication:
3/4 ÷12 [starting equation]
3/4 x 1/12 [flip and change sign]
3/48 [now reduce]
1/16 Each step takes 1/16 of an hour.
1/16 x 60 = 3 3/4, or 3.75 minutes
Second way:
3/4 of an hour is 3/4 of 60...45 minutes.
Still, we divide out:
45 ÷ 12 [starting equation]
3 9/12 [divide with remainder]
3 3/4 minutes...3.75 minutes
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangular prism is a three-dimensional solid.
A rectangular prism has six faces (each one of these faces are rectangles), eight vertices and twelve edges.
You know that this rectangular prism has 5 layers and the volume of one of these layers is 18 cubic centimeters (
).
Assuming that all these layers are equal, the volume of this rectangular prism can be calculated with:
Where 
is the volume of one layer.
Substituting, you get:
