Let's call the event of the red die to show a six as event A, and the event of the green die to show a six as event B.

The theoretical probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes. On both dices, we have 6 possible outcomes(the numbers from 1 to 6), with one favourable outcome(the number 6), therefore, the probabilities of those events are:

P(A)=P(B)=\frac{1}{6}

Each roll is independent from each other, then, the probability of both events happening simultaneously is given by their product:

P(A\:and\:B)=P(A)P(B)

Using the additive rule of probability, we have the following equation for our problem:

\begin{gathered} P(A\:or\:B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\:and\:B) \\ =P(A)+P(B)-P(A)P(B) \\ =\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{6^2} \\ =\frac{2}{6}-\frac{1}{36} \\ =\frac{12}{36}-\frac{1}{36} \\ =\frac{12-1}{36} \\ =\frac{11}{36} \end{gathered}

the probability that the red die shows a six or the green die shows a six is 11/36.

2. The volume of a cylinder varies jointly with its height and the square of the radius. A 7.85 cubic inch spice container is 2.
Natali [406]

Answer:

Volume=21.195 cubic inch

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder varies jointly with its height and the square of the radius is expressed as

V∝hr^2

Introducing our constant of proportionality,K we have that

V =Khr^2

Given that A 7.85 cubic inch spice container is 2.5 inches tall and has a radius of 1 inch. We have that

V =Khr^2

7.85=K 2.5 X 1^2

K=7.85/2.5 x1

K=3.14

Given that another spice container is 3 inches tall with a radius of 1.5 inches, Volume=?

V =Khr^2

V=3.14 X 3 X 1.5^2

V=21.195 cubic inch

For any two documents x and z, define k(x; z) to equal the number of unique words that occur in both x and z (i.e., the size of
liq [111]

Answer:

Yes, the function is a kernel

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Document x an z

Function definition! k(x:z)

We want to show that the above is a kernel.

To do this, we'll explicitly construct feature vectors φ(x) and φ(z)

This gives;

K(x,z) =φ(x)·φ(z).

Given than any document; say x and z

A vocabulary V can be constructed.

Vocabulary V must have a finite size of words in the document set..

The feature mapping is constructed as φ(x) for x by the following:

For the kth word wk in V, if wk appears in document x, assign φ(x) k(the kth element ofφ(x)) to be 1; else φ(x)k to 0.

Then the number of unique words common in x and z is φ(x)·φ(z), giving us the kernel

Figure TUVW ≅ figure ABCD, AB = 12, CD = 6, and DA = 4.
Olegator [25]
The measure of VW is 6. It's because since the figures are congruent their names are written in correspondence ....so since VW corresponds to CD , the answer must be 6.
