The probability that: either a or b occur

P(AUB)=0.9

This is further explained below.

<h3>What are mutually exclusive events?</h3>

Generally, In the fields of logic and probability, two occurrences are said to be mutually exclusive or discontinuous if it is impossible for both of them to take place at the same moment. One obvious illustration of this is the possible results of a single flip of a coin, which may produce either heads or tails, but not both at the same time.

Therefore,

P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)

P(AUB)=0.7+0.2

P(AUB)=0.9

In conclusion,

Solve using the method of elimination and determine if the system has 1 solution, no solutions, or infinite solutions
xeze [42]

Answer:

(3,1) --> One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by multiplying the first equation by 4:

-7x(4)+2y(4)=-19(4)

     -28x+8y=-76

In this scenario, we can eliminate 8y by subtracting the two equations:

-34x=-102

Divide both sides by -34

x=3

Plug 3 back in for x to solve for y

-7(3)+2y=-19

-21+2y=-19

Add 21 to both sides

2y=2

Divide both sides by 2

y=1

(x,y)=(3,1)

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

percent of iron in alloy= 100-42 = 58%

weight of the iron = 55×58÷100= 31.9

weight of iron= 31.9 kg

weight of copper= 55-31.9=23.1

weight of copper = 23.1

Consider the following scenario: There are three advertisers A, B, and C A bids on query x, B bids on x and y, and C bids on x,
yuradex [85]

Answer:

A A A B B B C C C  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the Greedy algorithm, the solution at any time is considered an optimal algorithm.

In our case the sequence is x x x y y y z z z

In addition to the Greedy algorithm, the first advertiser chooses their choice without considering the minimum methods.

Now we must consider the worst case of greedy algorithm so we must suppose that it starts from advertiser C, then B and followed by A.

Therefore the worst option would come being:

C C C B B B, in addition that A cannot bid for any query.

Which means that the sequence of the balanced algorithm will be A A A B B B C C C
