X can't simultaneously be equal to 1 and larger than 2, so the probability must be zero.

Did you mean to find the probability of the union? In that case, since the events are mutually exclusive, you would be able to write

\mathbb P((X=1)\cap(X\ge3))=\mathbb P(X=1)+\mathbb P(X\ge3)
=\mathbb P(X=1)+1-\mathbb P(X
=\mathbb P(X=1)+1-\mathbb P(X\le2)
=1+f_X(1)+F_X(2)

where f_X(x) is the probability density function and F_X(x) is the cumulative distribution function for the random variable X.

The two triangles are similar, What is the length of DE?
horsena [70]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

This is easy. All you need to do is set up a <u><em>proportional relationship</em></u>.

A proportional relationship uses variables to show similarities, in this case, in triangles.

\frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{6.3}\\\\3x = 12.6\\\\x = 4.2

<u><em>x</em></u> represents the missing side.

These two scalene triangles are similar with a scale of 4:5. What is true about these figures?
disa [49]

Alright, lets get started.

Lets check each possible answer one by one.

We will start from option B.

BC is from small triangle and its corresponding side is DF, so its ratio will be \frac{4}{5} not \frac{5}{4} as given in option. Hence option B is incorrect.

For option C,

Angle a° and angle f° are not similar angles, if they were similar, then only their ratio will be 1 otherwise not 1. Hence option C is incorrect.

For option D,

Angle c° and angle f° are similar angles so, their ratio will be \frac{c}{f}  = 1. Hence option D is incorrect.

Now option A,

ED and AB are corresponding sides. ED is from bigger triangle and AB is from smaller triangle. Their ratio will be \frac{ED}{AB} =  \frac{5}{4}. Hence option A is correct answer.

Hope it will help :)

What is the center and radius of the circle?<br> (x-3)2 + y² = 4
Kipish [7]

Answer:

center = (3, 0)

radius = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard equation of a circle:  \sf (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

(where (h, k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius)

Given equation:

\sf (x-3)^2+y^2=4

Rewrite in standard form:

\sf \implies (x-3)^2+(y-0)^2=2^2

Therefore

  • center = (3, 0)
  • radius = 2
