Answer:

(a) No, A and B are independent events.

(b) Yes, A and B be independent events if the sampling were done with replacement.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a batch of 500 containers of frozen orange juice contains 5 that are defective.

From this two containers are selected without replacement from the batch.

Where A and B denote the events that the first and second containers selected are defective, respectively.

(a) No, in this case A and B are not independent events because after selecting first defective container, the chances for selecting second defective container is affected as then the remaining defective containers will be 4 as we have not replaced the first one selected into the batch.

Hence, A and b events are not independent events.\

(b) If the sampling were done with replacement, then Yes A and B are independents events because with replacement means that selecting of one outcome does not affect the the selection chances for another events as after selecting first defective container and replacing it into the batch and then further selected another defective container will have the same probability.

Slope form: y=mx + b
slope is 2/5, fill into equation
Y = 2/5x + b
Plug in point to find b
1 = 2/5(0) + b
1 = 0 + b, b = 1

Of the last 100 customers entering Best Buy, 25 buy a computer. If the classical probability assessment applies, the probability
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The classical probability assessment works based on the principle that the probability of an event occurring is equal to the number of times the event occurs divided by total number of outcomes.

That is:

P(A) = n(A) / N

Therefore, the probability that the next customer will buy a computer will be:

P(c) = 25 / 100 = 1/4
