=============================================================
Explanation:
Define the following events
D = weather is dryR = weather is rainyS = weather is snowyL = person is lateT = person is on timeWe are given the following probabilities
P(D) = 1/2P(R) = 1/3P(S) = 1/6Then we're further told that "if it is dry, then the probability someone will arrive on time is 4/5". We can condense that into the notation
P(T given D) = 4/5
The "given D" means that we know 100% that event D has occurred. So we're seeing how event T behaves because of D occurring. In other words P(T given D) is the same as saying "What is P(T) when we know D has happened?"
-------------------------
The instructions also mention that "If it rains, the probability someone is on time is 2/5" tells us we have the notation
P(T given R) = 2/5
And also, the probability someone is on time if it is snowy is
P(T given S) = 1/10
due to it saying "If it snows, the probability that someone will arrive on time is 1/10".
-------------------------
To recap so far, your teacher told you these three conditional probabilities
P(T given D) = 4/5P(T given R) = 2/5P(T given S) = 1/10They are conditional due to the "given" as part of the probability. They depend on the given event happening.
Subtract each fraction from 1 and we end up with these complementary probabilities
P(L given D) = 1/5P(L given R) = 3/5P(L given S) = 9/10I'm using the idea that P(A)+P(B) = 1, where A and B are complementary events. One or the other event must happen. Either you are on time, or you are late.
---------------------------
Recall the conditional probability formula is
P(A given B) = P(A and B)/P(B)
which rearranges to
P(A and B) = P(A given B)*P(B)
We'll use this idea to get the following
P(L and D) = P(L given D)*P(D) = (1/5)*(1/2) = 1/10P(L and R) = P(L given R)*P(R) = (3/5)*(1/3) = 1/5P(L and S) = P(L given S)*P(S) = (9/10)*(1/6) = 3/20This means,
P(L) = P(L and D) + P(L and R) + P(L and S) ..... law of total probability
P(L) = 1/10 + 1/5 + 3/20
P(L) = 2/20 + 4/20 + 3/20
P(L) = (2+4+3)/20
P(L) = 9/20 is the probability someone is late

Answer: c
Step-by-step explanation:
if you think about the equations as linear functions, you can imagine that if they do intersect, it must be on only one point (since two straight lines cant intercept at more than one point, unless they are the same line)
therefore the point has to be the one and only intercept- satisfiing both linear equations

5x + 5x = 10x
Combine like terms: 5x + 5x = 10x
10x = 10x
Add '-10x' to each side of the equation.
10x + -10x = 10x + -10x
Combine like terms: 10x + -10x = 0
0 = 10x + -10x
Combine like terms: 10x + -10x = 0
0 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 5x+5x=10x²
10x=10x²
10x²+ -10x²=0
10x+-10x²=0
10x(1+ -1x)=0

Answer:
y = 25x + 128.8
Step-by-step explanation:
y = total cost
x = amount of days the car was rented
25 represents the daily charge for the fee and the insurance (15+10=25)
128.8 represent the cost for miles driven by Jerry
This was calculated by multiplying the amount of miles he drove (644) by the cost of each mile (.20)
644x.20=128.8 so the cost for miles driven is $128.8 which is why it was added to the equation

The sum of two nonnegative numbers is 50. What is the maximum value of the product of these two numbers ?
Answer:
625
Step-by-step explanation:
Let two number be x and (50-x).
The product of numbers be x(50-x).
P = 50x-x²
For maximizing the product,
[tex]\dfrac{dP}{dx}=0\\\\\dfrac{d}{dx}(50x-x^2)=0\\\\50-2x=0\\\\50=2x\\\\x=25[/tex]
So, the maximum product, P = 50(25)-(25)²
P = 625
Hence, the maximum value of the product of these two numbers is 625.
