Roulette is a very popular game in many American casinos. In roulette, a ball spins on a circular wheel that is divided into 38

arcs of equal length, bearing the numbers 00, 0, 1, 2, ..., 35, 36. The number of the arc on which the ball stops is the outcome of one play of the game. The numbers are also colored in the following manner:
Red: 1,3,5,7,9,12,14,16,18,19,21.23,25,27,30,32.34,36
Black: 2.4,6,8,10,11,13,15,17,20,22,24.26,28,29,31,33,35 Greerz: 00,O
Players may place bets on the table in a variety of ways, including bets on odd, even, red, black, high, low, etc. Define the following events:
A: (Outcome is an odd number (00 and 0 are considered neither odd nor even)]
B: (Outcome is a black number]
C: {Outcome is a low number (1-18))
Calculate the probabilities of the following events:
a. AUB
b. A ∩ C
c. BU C
d. Bc
e. A ∩ B ∩ C

Answer:

a. P(AUB) = 0.74

b. P(A∩C) = 0.24

c. P(BUC) = 0.71

d. P(Bc) = 0.55

e. P(A∩B∩C) = 0.11

Step-by-step explanation:

n(U) = Total number of elements in the set = number of elements in the universal set = 38

A: (Outcome is an odd number (00 and 0 are considered neither odd nor even)]

An odd number referred to any integer, that is not a fraction, which is not possible to be divided exactly by 2. Therefore, we have:

A: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35

B: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 29, 31, 33, 35

C: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18

a. Calculate the probability of AUB

AUB picks not more than one each of the elements in both A and B without repetition. Therefore, we have:

AUB = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31, 33, 35

n(AUB) = number of elements in AUB = 28

P(AUB) = probability of AUB = n(AUB) / n(U) = 28 / 38 = 0.736842105263158 = 0.74

b. Calculate the probability of A ∩ C  

A∩C picks only the elements that are common to both A and C. Therefore, we have:

A∩C: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17

n(A∩C) = number of elements in A∩C = 9

P(A∩C) = probability of A∩C = n(A∩C) / n(U) = 9 / 38 = 0.236842105263158 = 0.24

c. Calculate the probability of BUC

BUC picks not more than one each of the elements in both B and C without repetition. Therefore, we have:

BUC: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 29, 31, 33, 35

n(BUC) = number of elements in BUC = 27

P(BUC) = probability of A∩C = n(BUC) / n(U) = 27 / 38 = 0.710526315789474 = 0.71

d. Calculate the probability of Bc

Bc indicates B component it represents all the elements in the universal set excluding the elements in B. Therefore, we have:

Bc: 00, 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 14, 16, 18, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 30, 32, 34, 36

n(Bc) = number of elements in Bc = 20

P(Bc) = probability of Bc = n(Bc) / n(U) = 20 / 38 = 0.526315789473684 = 0.55

e. Calculate the probability of A∩B∩C

A∩B∩C picks only the elements that are common to A, B and C. Therefore, we have:

A∩B∩C: 11, 13, 15, 17

n(Bc) = number of elements in A∩B∩C = 4

P(A∩B∩C) = probability of A∩B∩C = n(A∩B∩C) / n(U) = 4 / 38 = 0.105263157894737 = 0.11

Note: All the answers are rounded to 2 decimal places.

Please help me guys like I really need it
Lesechka [4]

Inequality 1: y ≤ 5x + 1

Inequality 2: y > x - 2


#1. The slope is 5, the y-intercept is 1, the shaded area is below the line and the line is solid, which means that y is less than or equal to the equation. (you add the "equal to" because the line is a solid line)

#2. The slope is 1, the y-intercept is -2, the shaded area is above the line and the line is dotted, which means that y is greater than the equation

Alberto uses the steps below to solve the equation One-half x minus 3 equals 7. Step 1: One-half x minus 3 plus 3 equals 7 plus
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Identity property of multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

From step 5:

1x = 20

Here, to solve for x so that the variable x stands alone, Alberto uses the identity property of multiplication, which justifies what he has in step 6.

Step 6:

x = 20

According to the identity property of multiplication, any value you multiply by 1 gives you that same value.

Therefore, 1x = 1 × x = x.

The variable x multiplied by 1 will give you x.
