Question 173434: Super Bowl contender. The probability that San Francisco
plays in the next Super Bowl is nine times the probability
that they do not play in the next Super Bowl. The probability
that San Francisco plays in the next Super Bowl plus the
probability that they do not play is 1. What is the probability
that San Francisco plays in the next Super Bowl?
Help. Thanks. Answer by Mathtut(3670) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! lets call the probability they(SF) doesnt play in super bowl x... the probability they will play lets call y which equals 9x.
:
9x+x=1
:
10x=1
: =10% probability of SF not playing in SB
: =90% probability of SF playing in next SB
