Suppose that Juan can choose to get home from work by car or bus.




When he chooses to get home by car, he arrives home after 7 p.m. 14 percent of the time.

When he chooses to get home by bus, he arrives home after 7 p.m. 62 percent of the time.

Because the bus is cheaper, he uses the bus 83 percent of the time.



What is the approximate probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.?

Answers

Answer 1

Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.9556 = 95.56% probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.

Conditional Probability

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened. [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening. P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem:

Event A: Arrived home after 7 p.m.Event B: Got home by bus.

The percentages associated with arriving home after 7 p.m. are:

14% of 17%(by car).62% of 83%(by bus).

Hence:

[tex]P(A) = 0.14(0.17) + 0.62(0.83) = 0.5384[/tex]

The probability of both arriving home after 7 p.m. and using bus is:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.62(0.83)[/tex]

Hence, the conditional probability is:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.62(0.83)}{0.5384} = 0.9556[/tex]

0.9556 = 95.56% probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.

two ferries start moving toward each other from opposite riverbanks, a and b. when they pass each other for the first time, the distance to riverbank b is 100 meters. each ferry starts its return trip as soon as it reaches its destination. when the ferries meet for the second time, the distance to riverbank A is 50 meters. what is the distance between riverbanks a and b? Help I will give 40 points

Answers

Let 'x' be the distance from THE far bank   where 700 is the distance to the NEAR bank

boat one has travelled 700    (rate = 700/unit time)         boat two has travelled   x    rate = x / unit time

boat one then travels   x  + 400  more      and boat two travels   700 + (700+x -400) more    when they meet

The time is the same      rate x time = distance      distance/rate = time     equate the distances divided by the respective rates

(700 + x + 400)/700     =    (  x  +  700     +  (700+x-400) )/x

1100x + x^2 = 1400x + 700000

x^2-300x -700000 = 0                         quadratic formula yields  x = 1000  

One boat travels 700   the other   1000 whe they first meet.....width of river =   700+ 1000 = 1700 m

You are currently paying rent every year for your restaurant. You still have a contract that will last 2 more years. Starting today, your rent will increase every year by 3.5%.
Think of the amount of rent you are paying right now. Then, determine how much rent you will be paying after 2 years.
Imagine that after two years you will have the opportunity to change rent contracts.
Show a situation in which it would be beneficial and one situation in which it would not be beneficial to change contracts.

Answers

The amount to be paid in rent after 2 years if the rent as of now is $3,000 will be; $3,213.675

The question allows that we choose the amount being paid as rent as of now.

Let the rent paid as of now be; $3,000

In essence; after the first year; the amount increases by 3.5% to become;

1.035 × $3,000

= $3,105.

After the second year; we have;

1.035 × $3,105

= $3,213.675

Ultimately; the amount to be paid after 2 years will be; $3,213.675.

When given the opportunity to change rent contracts;

A situation that will be beneficial would be a 3.5% reduction in rent per year A situation that will not be beneficial would be a 7% increase in rent per year.

Question is on picture attached

Answers

Answer: a. they are alternate exterior angles.

b. Since they are the same measure, 14x + 2 = 9 + 13x. Let us solve.

14x + 2 = 9 + 13x

14x + 2 = 13x + 9

14x = 13x + 9 - 2

14x = 13x + 7

14x = 7 + 13x

14x - 13x = 7

x = 7

To check let us substitute. 14 * 7 + 2 = 9 + 13 * 7

100 = 100

So, we are correct.

A cubed shaped water tank has a volume of 729 m3 , one of the walls on the inside will need to be painted, a gallon of paint will cover an area of 15 square meters, the paint can only be bought by the gallon (you can’t buy part of a gallon), how many gallons of paint will be needed to paint one of the walls?

Answers

Answer:  33 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The water tank is a cube, with one dimension of x meters. Its volume will be x^3.

X^3 = 729m^3

x = 9 meters.  The cube has 4 side walls and a top and bottom, for a total of 6 interior walls.  Each wall has an area of x^2, or 81 m^2.

(6 walls)*(81 ft^2) = 486 m^2

One gallon of paint will cover 15 m^2.  The conversion factor is (1 gallon/15 m^2)

(486 m^2)*(1 gallon/15 m^2) = 32.4 gallons, rounded up to 33 gallons
