The conditional probability formula for P(B | A) has been derived from two dependent events P(A and B).

<h3>What is said to be dependent events?</h3>

When the outcome from one event influences the outcome of the other, two events are referred to as dependent.

  • Dependent events in probability are generally real-life events that depend on another event to occur.
  • Sam, for example, did well on his math test because he prepared; the gym class used to have a football session even though Adam brought a football from home.
  • When you look at these examples, you will realize that one occurrence is dependent on the other.

Derivation of conditional probability from two dependent events P(A and B) is-

The probability multiplication rule is used to derive the conditional probability formula, P(A and B) = P(A)×P(B|A).

This rule is also known as P(AB). The Union symbol (∪) represents "and," as in event A occurring and event B occurring.

Step 1: Write the multiplication rule down:

           P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B|A)

Step 2: P(A) divides both sides of the equation:

           P(A and B) / P(A) = P(A)*P(B|A) / / P(A)

Step 3: On the right side of the equation, cancel P(A):

           P(A and B) / P(A) = P(B|A)

Step 4: Rewrite the equation as follows:

           P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A)

Therefore, P(B | A) conditional probability formula is compiled from two dependent events P (A and B).

A hiker is climbing down a valley. He stops for a water break 4 times. Between each break, he descends 15 meters. How many meter
Murljashka [212]

The word in the problem that indicates that a negative sign should be used is "descend"

<h3></h3><h3>How many meters did he descend?</h3>

We know that he stops for water breaks four times, and between each water break, he descends 15 meters.

The written equation is:

4*(-15)m = -60m

Why the negative sign is used?

The negative sign is used because the hiker is descending, so its height is decreasing. The word in the problem that indicates that a negative sign should be used is "descend"

Can i get some help :
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

b = \frac{7}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

b + \frac{2}{3} = 1 \frac{1}{4} ← change to an improper fraction

b + \frac{2}{3} = \frac{5}{4}

Multiply through by 12 ( the LCM of 3 and 4 ) to clear the fractions

12b + 8 = 15 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

12b = 7 ( divide both sides by 12 )

b = \frac{7}{12}

Neither one will ever hit the axis I think? if its x=3.5 then its horizontal but its above the x axis. Same with the second one. its vertical and will never hit the y axis. Not sure how to write that into those boxes but I think there isn't an intercept.
