Answer: 5 (estimate)

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 17 4/5 = -13 1/5

Estimate: x - 18 = -13

x - 18 + 18 = -13 + 18

x = 5

actual answer without estimating using exact numbers is 4 3/5 (so estimate is reasonable)

Find the square: (5x - 4y)2 <br><br> (and please put the process of solving the equation)

satela [25.4K]

$(5x-4y)^2$
$(5x-4y)(5x-4y)$

Multiply each term in one bracket in turn by the terms in the other bracket

$(5x)(5x) = 25x^2$
$(5x)(-4y)=-20xy$
$(-4y)(5x)=-20xy$
$(-4y)(-4y)=16y^2$

Put them together we have
$25x^2-20xy-20xy-16y^2$
$25x^2-40xy-16y^2$

The compound probability of two events, E and F, is ; the probability of E is and of F is . In two or more complete sentences, e

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Events E and F are not independent if the probability of event E occurring is affecting the probability of event F occurring.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events are independent when the probability of one event occurring has no connection with that of the other event.

Example, when you toss a coin and roll a six sided die, the probability of getting a head or a tail has no connection with the probability of getting any number face.A real life example will be the probability going to the mall and owning a cat at home.These two have no influence on one another.

Mathematically independent events can be calculated as;

P(E∩F)=P(E)-P(F)
