Harold, the handyman, builds two similar sheds for a farm. The smaller shed is 6 feet tall and weighs 500 pounds. If it takes three times as much paint to cover the larger shed, approximately how tall is the larger shed and approximately how much does it weigh?

18 ft

1500 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

6 x 3 = 1 8

500 x 3 = 1500

Given:

Probability that the Yankees wins a game is

P(A) = 0.46

Probability that the Yankees loses a game is

P(A') = 1 - P(A') = 1 - 0.46 = 0.54

Probability that the Yankees scores 5 or more runs in a game is

P(B) = 0.59

Probability that the Yankees scores fewer than 5 runs in a game is

P(B') = 1 - P(B) = 1 - 0.59 = 0.41

Probability that the Yankees wins and scores 5 or more runs is

P(A⋂B) = 0.39

Applying the De Morgan's law, the probability that the Yankees scores fewer than 5 runs and they loses the game would satisfy:

1 - P(A'⋂B') = P(A) ⋃ P(B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A⋂B)

or

1 - P(A'⋂B') = 0.46 + 0.59 - 0.39

or

1 - P(A'⋂B') = 0.66

=> P(A'⋂B') = 1 - 0.66 = 0.34

Applying the Bayes theorem, the probability that the Yankees would score fewer than 5 runs, given they lose the game:

P(B'|A')  = P(A'⋂B')/P(A')

or

P(B'|A') = 0.34/0.54 = 0.630

Hope this helps!
