Consider randomly selecting a student at a large university, and let A be the event that the selected student has a Visa card and B be the analogous event for MasterCard. Suppose that P(A) = 0.7 and P(B) = 0.4.
A. Could it be the case that P(A ∩ B) = 0.5? Pick one:
i. Yes, this is possible. Since B is contained in the event A ∩ B, it must be the case that P(B) ≤ P(A ∩ B) and 0.5 > 0.4 does not violate this requirement.
ii. Yes, this is possible. Since A ∩ B is contained in the event B, it must be the case that P(B) ≤ P(A ∩ B) and 0.5 > 0.4 does not violate this requirement.
iii. No, this is not possible. Since B is equal to A ∩ B, it must be the case that P(A ∩ B) = P(B). However 0.5 > 0.4 violates this requirement.
iiii. No, this is not possible. Since B is contained in the event A ∩ B, it must be the case that P(A ∩ B) ≤ P(B). However 0.5 > 0.4 violates this requirement.
v. No, this is not possible. Since A ∩ B is contained in the event B, it must be the case that P(A ∩ B) ≤ P(B). However 0.5 > 0.4 violates this requirement.
B. From now on, suppose that P(A ∩ B) = 0.3. What is the probability that the selected student has at least one of these two types of cards?
C. What is the probability that the selected student has neither type of card?
D. In terms of A and B, the event that the selected student has a Visa card but not a MasterCard is A ∩ B' . Calculate the probability of this event.
E. Calculate the probability that the selected student has exactly one of the two types of cards.

Answers

Answer 1

Option A. No, this is not possible. Since A and B are not mutually exclusive events, we have P(A ∩ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∪ B), where P(A ∪ B) is the probability that the selected student has either a Visa or a MasterCard.

Since 0.5 > 1 - P(A ∪ B) = P(A') ∩ P(B'), we must have P(A') ∩ P(B') < 0, which is impossible.

B. The probability that the selected student has at least one of these two types of cards is given by P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B) = 0.7 + 0.4 - 0.3 = 0.8.

C. The probability that the selected student has neither type of card is given by P(A' ∩ B') = 1 - P(A ∪ B) = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2.

D. The probability of the event A ∩ B' is given by P(A ∩ B') = P(A) - P(A ∩ B) = 0.7 - 0.3 = 0.4.

E. The probability that the selected student has exactly one of the two types of cards is given by P((A ∩ B') ∪ (A' ∩ B)) = P(A ∩ B') + P(A' ∩ B) = 0.4 + 0.1 = 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality |3x| >= 0 simply states that the absolute value of 3x must be greater than or equal to zero.

Since the absolute value of any number must always be non-negative, this inequality is always true. That means any real number x satisfies the inequality |3x| >= 0.

If interest is compounded once every 12 months, how often is it compounded?

Answers

Answer:

B) Annually

Step-by-step explanation:

If interest is compounded once every 12 months, it is compounded annually.

Answer:

B) Annually

Step-by-step explanation:

What does compounded mean?

Compounded means to calculate interest on the borrowed amount and on previous interest.

What does monthly mean?

Monthly means to be done one every month.

What does annually mean?

Annually means to be done yearly or every year.

What does semiannually mean?

Let's break this down. Semi means half or a partial of something. Annually, as we already discussed, means yearly or every year. Now, when we put it together, it creates half a year. So, semiannually means half a year.

What does quarterly mean?

We know a quarter, as in, the coin, is 25 cent. if we multiply 25 cents by four, we get a dollar. So a quarter coin is one fourth, or, a quarter of a dollar. Now, applying that to years, since a year is twelve months and a quarter is one fourth, we can divide twelve by four to get three. Three months is one quarter of a year.

With this in mind, twelve months is equal to a year. So, the interest is compounded every year.

A is incorrect because it says monthly. We have already figured out that the interest is compounded yearly, so it is incorrect.

B is correct because the definition of Annually is yearly or every twelve months.

C is incorrect because semiannually means half or part of a year, not a full year.

D is incorrect because quarterly means one fourth of a year, or, three months.

if a coin is tossed thrice successively, what is the probability of obtaining at least one head and at least one tail?'

Answers

The probability of obtaining at least one head and at least one tail when a coin is tossed thrice successively is 7/8.

In probability theory, the likelihood of a particular event occurring is measured in terms of probability. When it comes to tossing a coin, there are two possible outcomes: heads or tails.

To calculate the probability of obtaining at least one head and at least one tail when a coin is tossed thrice successively, we need to use the concept of complementary events. Complementary events are two events that make up the whole sample space

Let's first calculate the probability of not getting at least one head and at least one tail. The only way to not get at least one head and at least one tail is to get either three heads or three tails. The probability of getting three heads or three tails in a row is (1/2)³ or 1/8 since there are 8 possible outcomes when a coin is tossed thrice successively.

Now we can calculate the probability of obtaining at least one head and at least one tail by subtracting the probability of not getting at least one head and at least one tail from 1.

1 - 1/8 = 7/8

Therefore, the probability of obtaining at least one head and at least one tail when a coin is tossed thrice successively is 7/8.

Answers

The equations must intersect at a single point then it have the unique solution and the value of h and k are h = -1 and k = 6

A system has no solution if the equations are inconsistent, meaning there is no way to satisfy both equations simultaneously. It has a unique solution if the equations intersect at a single point, meaning there is only one set of values that satisfies both equations.

Let's take a look at the first system of equations, 19.

Equation 1: x + hx = 2

Equation 2: 4x + 8x = k

For the system to have no solution, the equations must be inconsistent. This means they must be parallel and never intersect. To achieve this, we can set the slopes of the lines to be equal but the y-intercepts different. In other words, we need to choose h and k such that:

h = -2 and k = 5

Substituting these values into the equations, we get:

Equation 1: x - 2x = 2

Equation 2: 4x + 8x = 5

You can see that these two equations do not have a common solution. They are inconsistent, meaning there is no point that satisfies both equations.

For the system to have a unique solution, the equations must intersect at a single point. This means the slopes and y-intercepts must be different. To achieve this, we can choose h and k such that:

P(odd number) = 2/3

(c)

(i) If the die were loaded so that the face with the 3 on it was twice as likely to come up as each of the other five faces, then each of the other five faces would have a probability of 1/7 of coming up, and the face with the 3 on it would have a probability of 2/7 of coming up.

Suppose that $2000 is invested at a rate of 5.3%, compounded semiannually. Assuming that no withdrawals are made, find the total amount after 9 years.
Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

Rounding to the nearest cent, the total amount after 9 years is $3182.67.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for compound interest is given by:

A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)

where:

A = final amount

P = principal amount (initial investment)

r = annual interest rate (as a decimal)

n = number of times the interest is compounded per year

t = number of years

In this case, P = 2000, r = 0.053, n = 2 (compounded semiannually), and t = 9.

Plugging in these values, we get:

A = 2000(1 + 0.053/2)^(2*9)

= 2000(1.0265)^18

≈ 3182.67

Rounding to the nearest cent, the total amount after 9 years is $3182.67.

What is coordinate?

Coordinate, is represented as the values on the x-axis and y-axis of the graph. while the coordinate x is called abscissa and the coordinate of the y is called ordinate.

When you move 5 units north, you increase the y-coordinate by 5. When you move 3 units west, you decrease the x-coordinate by 3. So, if you start at an unknown point and move 5 units north and 3 units west, your final position would be at a point with the coordinates (x - 3, y + 5).

Since you ended at point D, and the final coordinates are not given, we cannot determine the starting point without more information.

samantha mixes some amount of 25% sugar syrup with x grams of 10% sugar syrup. the result is120 grams 15% sugar syrup. how many grams of 25% sugar syrup did samantha use?

Answers

Answer:

Final mixture is 120 gm

x = 10%      then   (120-x) = 25%

.25(120-x)    + .1 (x)    =  .15 (120)       solve for x= 10% amount

                                                                 then  25% amount = 120-x

given: cn perpendicular to ab; h is the geomtric mean between d and e. prove abc is a right triangle

Pythagorean theorem and its converse to prove that triangle ABC is a right triangle.

The converse of Pythagorean theorem states that if the sum of the squares of two sides of a triangle is equal to the square of the third side, then the triangle is a right triangle.

Let's begin by visualizing the given triangle ABC and the line CN that is perpendicular to side AB. Since CN is perpendicular to AB, we can say that triangle ACN and triangle BCN are right triangles (as the angle at C is 90 degrees).

Now, let's focus on the point H that is the geometric mean of points D and E. This means that DH multiplied by HE is equal to CH squared (as per the definition of geometric mean).

We can represent this relationship using the Pythagorean theorem as well. Since triangle CDH and triangle CEH are right triangles (as angle C is 90 degrees), we can say that:

CD² + DH² = CH² (using Pythagorean theorem for triangle CDH)

CE² + EH² = CH² (using Pythagorean theorem for triangle CEH)

From the given relationship of geometric mean, we can substitute CH² in the above equations and get:

CD² + DH² = HE*DH

CE² + EH² = HE*EH

Adding these two equations, we get:

CD² + CE² + DH² + EH² = HE*(DH + EH)

AB² = 4HE² (using the fact that DH + EH = DE = 2HE)

This equation gives us an important insight about the triangle ABC. It tells us that the sum of the squares of the sides (AB²) is equal to four times the square of the length HE (4HE²).

Now, we can use the converse of Pythagorean theorem to prove that triangle ABC is a right triangle.

In our case, we have AB² = 4HE², which satisfies the converse of Pythagorean theorem. Therefore, we can conclude that triangle ABC is a right triangle.
