A probability experiment is conducted in which the sample space of the experiment is upper s equals startset 4 comma 5 comma 6 c
olchik [2.2K]
The correct question statement is:

A probability experiment is conducted in which the sample space of the experiment is S = {4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}. Let event E={7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}. Assume each outcome is equally likely. List the outcomes in E^{c}. Find P(E^{c}).

Solution:

Part 1:

E^{c} means compliment of the set E. A compliment of a set can be obtained by finding the difference of the set from the universal set. The universal set is the set which contains all the possible outcomes of the events which is S in this case.

So, compliment of E will be equal to S - E. S - E will result in all those elements of S which are not present in E. So, we can write:

E^{c}=S-E \\  \\ 
E^{c}=(4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15)-(7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15) \\  \\ 
E^{c}=(4,5,6)

Thus the set compliment of E will contain the elements {4,5,6}.So

E^{c} = {4,5,6}

Part 2)

P(E^{c}) means probability that if we select any number from the Sample Space S, it will belong the set E compliment.

P(E^{c}) = (Number of Elements in E^{c})/Number of elements in S

Number of elements in set S = n(S) = 12
Number of elements in set E^{c} = n(E^{c})=3

So, 

P(E^{c})= \frac{n(E^{c}) }{n(S)} \\  \\ 
P(E^{c})= \frac{3}{12} \\  \\ 
P(E^{c})= \frac{1}{4}

Solve the system by the elimination method. 3x - 2y - 7 = 0 5x + y - 3 = 0 To eliminate y, the LCM is 2. Which of the following
Tresset [83]
Next time, please share your system of linear equations by typing only one equation per line:

<span>3x - 2y - 7 = 0 5x + y - 3 = 0  NO

</span><span>3x - 2y - 7 = 0
5x + y - 3 = 0                          YES

Mult. the 2nd equation by 2 so as to obtain 2y, which will be cancelled out by  - 2y in the first equation:

</span><span>  3x - 2y - 7 = 0
2(5x + y - 3 = 0)

Then:

  3x - 2y - 7 = 0
10x +2y - 6 = 0
----------------------
13x - 13 = 0, so that x = 1.  Find y by subbing 1 for x in either of the 2 given equations.</span>

Solve r=4/3(p-q) for p
lesya [120]

Answer:

q+3/4r=p

Step-by-step explanation:

r=4/3(p-q)

Distribute the 4/3

r=4/3p-4/3q

Add 4/3q to each side

4/3q+r=4/3p

Multiply ALL variables by 3/4 (undoes the 4/3)

q+3/4r=p

When jeremy gets his allowance he agrees to save part of it his savings and expenses are in the ratio of 7:5 if his daily allowa
nignag [31]

He saves $ 1.75 each day from his allowance.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

The ratio of his savings and expenses is  7 : 5

Lets assume, his savings = 7x dollar and his expenses is 5x dollar

Given that, his daily allowance is $3. So....

7x+5x=3\\ \\ 12x=3\\ \\ x=\frac{3}{12}= \frac{1}{4}= 0.25

So, the amount of his savings each day =7x= (7*0.25)dollar= 1.75 dollar
