Condition (A) P(B/A) = y is true.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>
  • Probability is an area of mathematics that deals with numerical descriptions of how probable an event is to occur or how likely a statement is to be true.

To find the true condition:


If two events are independent, then:

  • Pr(A∩B) = Pr(A) . Pr(B)

Use formulas for conditional probabilities:

  • Pr(A/B) = Pr(A∩B) / Pr(B)
  • Pr(B/A) = Pr(B∩A) / Pr(A)

For independent events these formulas will be:

  • Pr(A/B) = Pr(A∩B) / Pr(B) = Pr(A) . Pr(B) / Pr(B) = Pr(A)
  • Pr(B/A) = Pr(B∩A) / Pr(A) = Pr(B) . Pr(A) / Pr(A) = Pr(B)

Now in your case, Pr(A) = x and Pr(B) = y.

  • Pr(A/B) = x, Pr(B/A) = y, Pr(A∩B) = x.y

Therefore, condition (A) P(B/A) = y is true.

The complete question is given below:

The probability of event A is x, and the probability of event B is y. If the two events are independent, which of these conditions must be true?

a. P(B|A) = y

b. P(A|B) = y

c. P(B|A) = x

d. P(A and B) = x + y

e. P(A and B) = x/y

There are 5 cocoa pods in a bag.
Virty [35]

Answer:

416 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is calculated as

mean = \frac{sum}{count} , then

\frac{sum}{5} = 398 ( multiply both sides by 5 )

sum of 5 pods = 1990 g

let x be the weight of the sixth pod , then

\frac{1990+x}{6} = 401 ( multiply both sides by 6 )

1990 + x = 2406 ( subtract 1990 from both sides )

x = 416

That is the weight of the sixth pod is 416 g

Fine the length of the hypotenuse of a Right triangle with legs pf 20cm and21cm
Arisa [49]

Hypotenuse² = perpendicular² + base²

H² = 20²+21²

H²= 400+441 = 841

H = √841

H = 29 cm

JONAS HAS A FILE CABINET IN THE SHAPE OF A right rectangular prism. the area of the base of the file cabinet is 450 square inche
Nostrana [21]
The volume of a rectangular prism can be found by the formula:
V = A × h

Where:
A = area of the base of the prism
h = height of the prism

Therefore:
V = 450 × 53 
   = 23850 in³

The volume of the file cabinet is <span>23850 in³.</span>

X = 55, because 60 + 65 = 125 and 180 - 125 = 55
Lina20 [59]

Answer: x= 55 because 60 + 65 =125 and 180 - 125 = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of three angles in any triangle is 180. Therefore you add the two angles that you have and use that number to subtract it by 180. Then you will have your answer. Also you can get the answer to y by subtracting the value of x from 180.
