The probabilities of the given events are:

A. P(even) = P(A) = 7/15

B. P(multiple) = P(B) = 3/15

C. P(prime) = 6/15

D. P(B|A) = 3/7

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes of an event to the total number of possible outcomes.

P(E) = n(E)/n(S)

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The given sample space is S = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}

So, n(S) = 15

A. The selected number is even:

Consider the event as A.

The set of even numbers in the given sample is {2,4,6,8,10,12,14}

So, n(A) = 7

Then, the required probability is

P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

       = 7/15

B. The selected number is a multiple of 4:

Consider the event as B.

The set of multiples of 4 in the given sample is {4,8,12}

So, n(B) = 3

Then, the required probability is

P(B) = n(B)/n(S)

       = 3/15

C. The selected number is prime:

Consider the event as C.

The set of prime numbers in the given sample is {2,3,5,7,11,13}

So, n(C) = 6

Then, the required probability is

P(C) = n(C)/n(S)

       = 6/15

D. calculate P(B|A):

Since events B and A are dependent events of the same sample,

n(A∩B) = 3 and the set is {4,8,12}. Then, P(B|A) is

P(B|A) = n(A∩B)/n(A)

⇒ P(B|A) = 3/7

According to a 2010 study conducted by the Toronto-based social media analytics firm Sysomos, 71% of all tweets get no reaction.
klemol [59]

Answer:

a) the expected number of tweets with no reaction is 71 tweets

b) the variance is 20.59 tweets² ( ≈ 21 tweets )and the standard deviation is

4.537 tweets (≈ 5 tweets)

Step-by-step explanation:

we can use the binomial probability distribution

P(x, N, p ) = N!/[(N-x)!x!] * p^x * (1-p)^(N-x)

where

x = number of successful events

N = population total

p = probability for success for every individual and independent event

P = probability for x successful events

in our case p = 71% = 71/100 (probability of a tweet without reaction) , N = 100 tweets

a) the expected number of tweets

E(x) = N* p = 100 tweets * 71/100 = 71 tweets

b) the variance is

V(x) = N * p * (1-p)

V = 100 * 71/100 * (1-71/100) = 71* 29/100 = 20.59 tweets² ( units of variance are [N²] )

the standard deviation is

s = √V = √20.59 tweets² = 4.537 tweets

Somebody please help me out!

Since the triangles are similar, all sides are proportional by the same scale factor.
The relationship between the bases 32 and 8 is 4 (32/8 = 4). This means that the smaller triangle need to be multiplied by a scale factor 4 to result in the bigger triangle.
This means that 4x + 12 is 4 times greater than 15.
The equation to solve for x can be written as:
4x + 12 = 4*15
Now just solve for x as u normally would
4x + 12 = 60
(Subtract twelve from both sides)
4x = 48
(Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x)
x = 12

I hope this somewhat helped :)
