<h2>⚠ANSWER⚠ </h2>

Dependent event is when two events are dependent events, one event influences the probability of another event whereas independent event has no effect on the probability of another event occurring.

↪DEPENDENT EVENT

When two events are dependent events, one event influences the probability of another event. A dependent event is an event that relies on another event to happen first. Dependent events in probability are no different from dependent events in real life. If you want to attend a concert, it might depend on whether you get overtime at work. if you want to visit family out of the country next month, it depends on whether or not you can get a passport in time. More formally, we say that when two events are dependent, the occurrence of one event influences the probability of another event.

Simple examples of dependent events

Robbing a bank and going to jail.
Not paying your power bill on time and having your power cut off.
Boarding a plane first and finding a good seat.
Parking illegally and getting a parking ticket.

↪INDEPENDENT EVENT

An independent event is an event that has no connection to another event’s chances of happening (or not happening). In other words, the event has no effect on the probability of another event occurring. Independent events in probability are no different from independent events in real life. Where you work has no effect on what color car you drive. Buying a lottery ticket has no effect on having a child with blue eyes.

When two events are independent, one event does not influence the probability of another event.

Simple examples of independent events

Owning a dog and growing your own herb garden.
Paying off your mortgage early and owning a Chevy Cavalier.
Winning the lottery and running out of milk.
Buying a lottery ticket and finding a penny on the floor.

6 + (9 − 1) 2 ÷ 4 ⋅ 1 over 2 whole to the power of 4

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

625

Step-by-step explanation:

1. parenthesis first, so it simplifies to ((6+(8)2÷4*1)/2)^4

2. pemdas says that multiplication and division go before addition and subtraction, so ((6+(8)2÷4*1)/2)^4 becomes ((6+16÷4*1)/2)^4 ---> ((6+4)/2)^4

3. then simplify inside of the parenthesis, so it becomes 5^4, which is 625

Radioactive Decay Beginning with 16 grams of a radioactive element whose half -life is 30 years ,the mass y(in grams) remaining

Flura [38]

Answer:

the equation should be corrected to fit the data of the problem. With the corrected equation a mass of 0.5 grams remains after 150 years

Step-by-step explanation:

for the mass y( in grams)

y=23* (1/2)^(t/45), t ≥ 0.

the initial mass is at t=0 , then

y= 23 grams → should be 16 grams

half-life from the equation = 45 years → should be 30 years

the correct equation should be

y=16*(1/2)^(t/30), t ≥ 0

then after 150 years → t= 150

y=16*(1/2)^(150/30)= 16*(1/2)^5 = 16/32 = 0.5 grams

then a mass of 0.5 grams remains after 150 years

Solve the proportion 5/6 = c/9

AnnZ [28]

5/6= c/9

Cross mutiple. 5* 9= 45 . c*6

45= 6c

divide by 6 for 45 and 6c

45/6= 6c/6

45/6= c

Reduce 45/6. Divide by 3

45/3, 6/3

15/2= c

Answer: c= 15/2 or in decimal form , c= 7.5
