Answer: 12/17

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an example of probability with replacement

n(red) = 3

n(green) = 4

n(blue) = 3

n(speckled) = 3

n(yellow) = 4

Total = 17

The probability of getting a green = number of green / total number

That is

p(green) = 4/17

Also

p(red) = 3/17

" and " in probability means multiplication , therefore:

the probability of getting a green and then a red will be

4/17 x 3/17 = 12/17

Let A, B, C and D be sets. Prove that A \ B and C \ D are disjoint if and only if A ∩ C ⊆ B ∪ D
ANEK [815]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to prove both implications of the affirmation.

1) Let's assume that A \ B and C \ D are disjoint, we have to prove that A ∩ C ⊆ B ∪ D.

We'll prove it by reducing to absurd.

Let's suppose that A ∩ C ⊄ B ∪ D. That means that there is an element x that belongs to A ∩ C but not to B ∪ D.

As x belongs to A ∩ C, x ∈ A and x ∈ C.

As x doesn't belong to B ∪ D, x ∉ B and x ∉ D.

With this, we can say that x ∈ A \ B and x ∈ C \ D.

Therefore, x ∈ (A \ B) ∩ (C \ D), absurd!

It's absurd because we were assuming that A \ B and C \ D were disjoint, therefore their intersection must be empty.

The absurd came from assuming that A ∩ C ⊄ B ∪ D.

That proves that A ∩ C ⊆ B ∪ D.

2) Let's assume that A ∩ C ⊆ B ∪ D, we have to prove that A \ B and C \ D are disjoint (i.e.  A \ B ∩ C \ D is empty)

We'll prove it again by reducing to absurd.

Let's suppose that  A \ B ∩ C \ D is not empty. That means there is an element x that belongs to  A \ B ∩ C \ D. Therefore, x ∈ A \ B and x ∈ C \ D.

As x ∈ A \ B, x belongs to A but x doesn't belong to B.  

As x ∈ C \ D, x belongs to C but x doesn't belong to D.

With this, we can say that x ∈ A ∩ C and x ∉ B ∪ D.

So, there is an element that belongs to A ∩ C but not to B∪D, absurd!

It's absurd because we were assuming that A ∩ C ⊆ B ∪ D, therefore every element of A ∩ C must belong to B ∪ D.

The absurd came from assuming that A \ B ∩ C \ D is not empty.

That proves that A \ B ∩ C \ D is empty, i.e. A \ B and C \ D are disjoint.

In 12 years, Janice will be 8 times as old as she was 2 years ago. How old is Janice<br> now?
Setler [38]

Janice is currently 4.

In 12 years, Janice will be 16, and 2 years ago she was 2. That being said, 16 is eight times more than 2, thus meaning she is currently 4 years old.

I hope this helps!

During a film festival, the first film ticket is priced at $16, and each additional ticket is $11. If Rico spends $71, then how
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

16 + 11x = 71

16 + -16 + 11x = 71 + -16

16 + -16 = 0

0 + 11x = 71 + -16

11x = 71 + -16

11x = 55

x = 5
