Dalgliesh the detective fancies himself a shrewd judge of human nature. In careful tests it has been discovered that he is right 80 percent of the time when he says that a randomly chosen suspect is lying. Dalgliesh says that Jones is lying. The polygraph expert, who is right 100 percent of the time, says that 40 percent of the subjects interviewed by Dalgliesh are telling the truth. What is the probability that Jones is lying?
Answer:
The probability that Jones is lying is 6/7
Step-by-step explanation:
First we will list out 2 different cases when the outcome is a lie
1.probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6 and probability that dalgiliesh analyses it correctly is 0.8
So the probability that dagliesh correctly analyses that he is telling lies is 0.8*0.6=0.48
2.Probability that Jones tells truth is 0.4 and if dagliesh analyses it incorrectly (which has a probability of 0.2) the outcome(as analysed by dagiliesh) is a lie
So probability that dagliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is 0.2*.0.4=0.08
Total probability of outcome being a lie is 0.48+0.08=0.56
But we need the probability of Jones actually saying a lie which is nothing but 0.48/0.56= 6/7
(50 pts will mark brainliest) The perimeter of a rectangle is 48 inches. The width of the rectangle is 4 inches more than 3 times the length of the rectangle. What are the dimensions of the rectangle?
Answer:
The rectangle is 5 inches long by 19 inches wide.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by listing what we know:
The perimeter of a rectangle is 48 inches.The width of the rectangle is 4 inches more than 3 times the length of the rectangle.Let's represent the width with "w" and length with "l", and make a system of equations based on what we know.
[tex]\left \{ {{2w + 2l = 48} \atop {w = 3l + 4}} \right.[/tex]
Now, let's solve the system of equations using substitution:
[tex]2w + 2l = 48[/tex]
[tex]2 (3l + 4) + 2l = 48[/tex]
[tex]6l + 8 + 2l = 48[/tex]
[tex]8l + 8 = 48[/tex]
[tex]8l = 40[/tex]
[tex]l = 5[/tex]
The length of the rectangle is 5 inches.
Now, let's use this to solve for the width.
[tex]w = 3l + 4[/tex]
[tex]w = 3(5) + 4[/tex]
[tex]w = 15 + 4[/tex]
[tex]w = 19[/tex]
The width of the rectangle is 19 inches.
Let's check our work:
[tex]2w + 2l = 48[/tex]
[tex]2(19) + 2(5) = 48[/tex]
[tex]38 + 10 = 48[/tex]
[tex]48 = 48[/tex]
The results match, so our answer is correct.
The rectangle is 5 inches long by 19 inches wide.

Find the approximate Perimeter of a regular hexagon that has an area of 36 mi2 and an apothem of 3.2 mi.
Area = 36 mi2
Answer:
Parameter of given regular hexagon = 22.32 mi (Approx.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Area of given regular hexagon = 36 mi²
Find:
Parameter of given regular hexagon
Computation:
Area of regular hexagon = [(3√3)/2]a²
[(3√3)/2]a² = 36
a² = [36 x 2] / 3√3
a² = [12 x 2] / √3
a² = 24 / √3
a² = 8√3
a² = 8 x 1.732
a² = 13.856
Side a = 3.72 mi (Approx.)
Parameter of given regular hexagon = 6 x Side
Parameter of given regular hexagon = 6 x 3.72
Parameter of given regular hexagon = 22.32 mi (Approx.)

A rectangle is 64 cm long 40 cm wide find is area and perimeter
Answer:
Assuming the length to be x and the width to be y.
Since the area is 64cm, hence
x*y = 64 (equation 1)
Since the perimeter is 40cm, hence
x + x + y + y = 40
2x + 2y = 40
2(x + y) = 2(20)
x + y = 20 (equation 2)
Hence by using simultaneous equation,
x = 20 - y (equation 3)
Substituting equation 3 into equation 1, we get
(20-y)*y=64
20y-y^2=64
Tidying up the equation,
y^2 - 20y + 64 = 0
By using factorisation,
(y-16)(y-4)=0
y=16 or y=4
By substituting y=16 into equation 1,
x*16=64
x = 4
By substituting y = 4 into equation 1,
x*4=64
x=16
Therefore,
The length is 4 cm while the width is 16 cm.
OR
The length is 16 cm while the width is 4cm.

Pls answer this for me. How many paving stones, each 1m long and 80cm wide, are needed to cover a compound 13.6m long and 11m wide?
Answer: 187
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Dimension of stone is [tex]1\ m\times 80\ cm[/tex]
Dimension of compound [tex]13.6\ m\times 11\ m[/tex]
Area of the stone
[tex]\Rightarrow a=1\times 0.8=0.8\ m^2[/tex]
Area of compound
[tex]\Rightarrow A=13.6\times 11=149.6\ m^2[/tex]
No of the stones needed is
[tex]\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{A}{a}\\\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{149.6}{0.8}\\\\\Rightarrow n=187[/tex]
Thus, 187 stones are needed

Answer:
x = 12, x = -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 8x - 48 = 0.
This factors to (x - 12)(x + 4) = 0.
Proof:
(x - 12)(x + 4) = 0
first: x * x
outer: 4 * x
inner: -12 * x
last: -48.
first: x²
outer: 4x
inner: -12x
last: -48
x² + 4x - 12x - 48
x² - 8x - 48.
To find the zeros, take the individual pairs and find the values that make the equation 0.
x - 12 = 0
Add 12 to both sides.
x = 12.
x + 4 = 0
Subtract 4 from both sides.
x = -4.
Answer:
x= 4 + 2√5, x = 4 - 2√5
Step-by-step explanation:
So this is quadratics so you can solve it by completing the square and using the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula is x = (-b±√(b²-4ac)) / (2a).

Find the surface area of the right prism :
Answer:
336 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of triangular prism = bh + (s1 + s2 + s3)H
Where,
b = 6 in
h = 8 in
s1 = 10 in
s2 = 6 in
s3 = 8 in
H = 12 in
Surface area of triangular prism = 6*8 + (10 + 6 + 8)12
= 48 + (24)12
= 336 in²

Answer:
f(x) = -4x + 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
(4, 5) and (2, 13)
Required:
Linear function of that passes through the given points
Solution:
We need to determine the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the function.
✔️Finding the slope using the points given:
Slope (m) = change in y/change in x
= (13 - 5)/(2 - 4)
= 8/-2
m = -4
✔️To find y-intercept (b), substitute (x, f(x)) = (4, 5) and m = -4 into f(x) = mx + b
5 = -4(4) + b
5 = -16 + b
5 + 16 = b
b = 21
✔️To write the function, substitute m = -4 and b = 21 into f(x) = mx + b
f(x) = -4x + 21
