Why do the probability of an event and the probability of its complement add up to 1

1 answer:

5 0

<span>the probability of an event and the probability of its complement add up to 1 because the total events are the even it self and its compliment, so its probability equal to 1 because these are all the possible events that will occur. for example a coin toss, an event head will happen 0.5, and its complement is tails which will also happens 0.5</span>

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Option D = 16π/3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc length formula is written Mathematically as:

Arc length = 2πr × θ /360

r = 4 ft

θ = Central angle in degrees = 240°

2 × π × 4 × 240/360

8π × 240/360

8π × 20/30

16π/3 ft

So, the arc length is 16π/3 ft

Identify the slope, m. This can be done by calculating the slope between two known points of the line using the slope formula.

Find the y-intercept. This can be done by substituting the slope and the coordinates of a point (x, y) on the line in the slope-intercept formula and then solve for b.

Let
The origin of coordinates the tree
r1 = vector position of the child 1.
r2 = vector position of the child 2
Child 1:
r1 = (12i + 12j)
Child 2:
r2 = (-18i + 11j)
The scalar product will be given by:
r1.r2 = ((12) * (- 18)) + ((12) * (11)) = - 84
The scalar product of their net displacements from the tree is -84m ^ 2
