The probability of event X or Y is P = 0.7, or, in percentage form, the probability is 70%.

<h3>How the get the probability of event X or Y?</h3>

First, two events are mutually exclusive if these events can't happen at the same time.

This means that if happens X, with a 30% of probability, then Y can't happen.

If happens Y, with a 40% of probability, then X can't happen.

Then the probability of X or Y (the probability that one of these two events happens, not both) is just the addition of the two individual probabilities.

Then we have:

P(X or Y) = 0.3 + 0.4 = 0.7

Or, in percent form, we get:

P(X or Y) = 70%

The probability of event X or Y is just 70%.

What is wrong with the following proof that for every integer n, there is an integer k such that n &lt; k &lt; n + 2? Suppose n
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

c)The proof writer mentally assumed the conclusion. He wrote "suppose n is an arbitrary integer", but was really thinking "suppose n is an arbitrary integer, and suppose that for this n, there exists an integer k that satisfies n < k < n+2." Under those assumptions, it follows indeed that k must be n + 1, which justifies the word "therefore": but of course assuming the conclusion destroyed the validity of the proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

when we claim something as a hypothesis we can only conclude with therefore at the end of the proof. so assuming the conclusion nulify the proof from the beginning

Help quick please give an explanation too.
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer: (x+2)*(x-4)*(x+21) = 0 has "many" solutions

Step-by-step explanation: (x+2) = 0 only has one solution.  

(x+2)*(x-4) = 0 has two solutions, -2 and 4

(x+2)*(x-4)*(x+21) = 0 has three solutions, -2, 4, and -21, etc

If "many" means more than three, then add another (x+XX) term.  A quadratic equation generally has two solutions.

A data set includes the following grades: 98, 94, 93, 82, 61, 80. Suppose that 61 is removed from the data. How is the median af
puteri [66]

Answer:

<u>If we remove 61 from the data set, the median changes from 87.5 to 93.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's calculate the median of the original data set:

Median = (3rd term + 4th term)/2 because the number of terms are even and our median mark is the average of the two middle marks, in this case, 82 and 93.

Median = (82 + 93)/2

Median = 87.5

2. Let's calculate the median of the data set removing 61:

Median = 3rd term because our median mark is the middle mark, in this case, 93. It is the middle mark because there are 2 scores before it (80 and 82) and 2 scores (94 and 98) after it.

Median = 93
