Answer:

the probability is 0.02 (2%)

Step-by-step explanation:

defining the event S= the message is spam , then the probability is

P(S) = probability that a randomly selected message comes from account #1 * probability that the message is spam given that the message is from account #1 + probability that a randomly selected message comes from account #2 * probability that the message is spam given that the message is from account #2 + probability that a randomly selected message comes from account #3 * probability that the message is spam given that the message is from account #3 = 0.6 * 0.01 + 0.3 * 0.03 + 0.1 * 0.05 = 0.02 (2%)

thus the probability is 0.02 (2%)

Can someone please help me with these math problems ASAP?!<br> Thanks in advance! ;)
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

11) Here given Function,

f(x) = \sqrt{2x-11}

And, g(x) = -|0.1|x+5

For f(x) = g(x)

\sqrt{2x-11}=-|0.1|x+5

2x-11=(-|0.1|x+5)^2

2x-11=0.01x^2 - 10|0.1|x+25

2x=0.01x^2 - 10|0.1|x+25+11

2x=0.01x^2 - 10|0.1|x+36

0.01x^2 - 10|0.1|x - 2x+36=0

When we solve this equation,

We found,

 x = 12.5227 ≈ 12.53

Thus, the required solution is, x = 12.53

12) Here the height of rocket A in x second,

f(x) = -16x^2+74x+9

And, The height gain by the rocket B in x seconds,

g(x) = -16x^2+82x

If at x seconds both A and B gain the same height,

That is, f(x) = g(x)

⇒ -16x^2+74x+9= -16x^2+82x

⇒74x + 9 = 82x

⇒ 82x - 74x = 9

⇒ 8x = 9

⇒ x = 1.125 ≈ 1.13

Thus, the required solution is x = 1.13 seconds (approx)
