Complete Question

Professor Jin wants to travel from place A to place B without a map. There are four ways lead away from place A. If road I is selected, the probability of arriving place B is 1/8; if road II is selected, the probability of arriving place B is 1/6; if road III is selected, the probability of arriving place B is 1/4; and if road IV is selected,the probability of arriving place B is 9/10.

(a) What is the probability that professor will arrive at place B?

(b) If Professor Jin arrives at place B, what is the probability that she chooses road IV?

a

b

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The number of ways from A to B is  n =  4

   The  probability if road 1 is selected is  

   The  probability if road 2 is selected is  

    The  probability if road 3 is selected is

    he  probability if road 4 is selected is

The probability that professor will arrive at place B is mathematically represented as

If Professor Jin arrives at place B, what is the probability that she chooses road IV is mathematically represented as

=>    

=>      

y-y1=4(x-x1)

step-by-step explanation:

this is point-slope form since you only have 4 as the slope it goes in place of m

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
