Only two moving companies provide local delivery service in a small western city, United and North American. United operates 20 percent of the trucks, North American the remaining 80 percent. On a dark and rainy night, a pedestrian is run over and killed by a moving van. The lone witness to the incident testifies that the van was owned by United. An independent laboratory hired by the court finds that under dark and rainy conditions, the witness is able to identify the owner of the moving van with 90 percent accuracy. What is the probability that the van that struck the pedestrian was owned by United

yes

step-by-step explanation:

yes

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!

answer is b

step-by-step explanation:

this is a direct variation proportion. y = kx

y is the total amount due, k is the constant of variation, and x is the number of texts sent.

plug in the 3.20 and the 16 to solve for the "k". this is the constant of proportionality. it is the value that will not change.

3.20 = k(16). solving you get $.20 per text.

the equation would then be y = .20x
