Answer
25
Step-by-step explanation:
20/32 = 0.625
40 x 0.625 = 25
You can check by doing 25/40 and see if you get the same proportion (x/y)
25 is the correct answer 32/20 is 1.6 and 40/25 is also 1.6
Alice and her two sisters, Betty and Carol, are avid tennis players. Betty is the best of the three sisters, and Carol plays at the same level as Alice. Alice defeats Carol 50% of the time but only defeats Betty 40% of the time. Alice’s mother offers to give her $100 if she can win two consecutive games when playing three alternating games against her two sisters. Since the games will alternate, Alice has two possibilities for the sequence of opponents. One possibility is to play the first game against Betty, followed by a game with Carol, and then another game with Betty. We will refer to this sequence as BCB. The other possible sequence is CBC.
Calculate the probability of Alice getting the $100 reward if she chooses the sequence CBC.
Answer:
0.484
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Alice defeats Carol 50% of the time.
This implies that, the probability of defeating Carol = 0.5
Also the probability of losing to Carol = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5
Similarly, Alice defeats Betty 40% of the time.
The probability of Alice defeating Betty = 0.4 and the probability of losing to Betty = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6
However, in as much as Alice needs to win two consecutive games, the sequence which satisfies this condition are as follows:
Let W represent Win and L represent L.
Then the conditions are WWW, WWL and LWW
Since the outcome of each game is independent of the other games.
Then, the probability that Alice wins two games against Carol CBC is:
Pr(2W - CBC) = (0.5 × 0.4 × 0.5) + ( 0.5 × 0.4 × 0.5) + ( 0.5 × 0.4 × 0.5)
Pr(2W - CBC) = 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1
Pr(2W - CBC) = 0.3
The probability that Alice wins two games against Betty (BCB) is:
Pr(2W - BCB) = (0.4 × 0.5 × 0.4) + (0.6 × 0.5 × 0.4) + ( 0.4 × 0.5 × 0.6)
Pr(2W - BCB) = 0.08 + 0.12 + 0.12
Pr(2W - BCB) = 0.32
However, the Probability of winning two consecutive games is the result of the addition of the probability of winning two consecutive games in the sequence CBC together with the probability of winning two consecutive games in the sequence of BCB.
i.e.
Pr(2W) = Pr(2W- CBC) + Pr(2W - BCB)
Pr(2W) = 0.3+0.32
Pr(2W) = 0.62
Finally, to calculate the probability that Alice will get $100 if she chooses the sequence CBC is:
[tex]\dfrac{Pr(2W -CBC)}{Pr(2W)}= \dfrac{0.3}{0.62}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{Pr(2W -CBC)}{Pr(2W)}= 0.484}[/tex]
using your value of x for question number 11 find the measure of angle h will mark brainiest this is so hard ty so much
Answer:
∠H = 58Step-by-step explanation:
using the value of x = 20 from number 11
solve the angle H
∠H = 3x - 2
plugin the value of x=20 into the equation
∠H = 3(20) - 2
∠H = 58

g Benton Industries manufactures carpets and draperies in the Atlanta area. Employee absenteeism was becoming a problem, so HR conducted a study involving a random sample of employees. The number of absences during the past year was tabulated by marital status. What is the probability that an employee is not married and has between 1 and 5 absences in the past year
Answer:
The probability that an employee is not married and has between 1 and 5 absences in the past year is 0.204.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of an event, say E is the ratio of the favorable number of outcomes to the total number of outcomes.
[tex]P(E)=\frac{n (E)}{N}[/tex]
The number of absences during the past year tabulated by marital status is as follows:
Marital Status 0 Absences 1 - 5 Absences More than 5 Absences
Married 100 98 52
Not Married 77 102 71
Compute the probability that an employee is not married and has between 1 and 5 absences in the past year as follows:
[tex]P(\text{NM}\cap 1-5\ \text{Absences})=\frac{n(\text{NM}\cap 1-5\ \text{Absences})}{N}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{102}{100+98+52+77+102+71}\\\\=\frac{102}{500}\\\\=0.204[/tex]
Thus, the probability that an employee is not married and has between 1 and 5 absences in the past year is 0.204.

Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Those 2 angles together form a straight line which is equal to 180°. So you can set up an equation:
3x + 18 = 93
-18 -18
3x = 75
Divide both sides by 3
x = 25
