Answer:

A and B are not independent events because P(A|B)≠P(A)

is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

If A and B are independent then we must have

P(AB) = P(A) P(B) and also

P(A/B) = P(A)

We are given that

A and B are two events.

Let P(A)=0.5 , P(B)=0.25 , and P(A and B)=0.15 .

P(A/B) = P(AB)/P(B) = 0.15/0.5 = 0.3

i.e. P(A/B) is not equal P(A)

Similarly P(B/A) = P(AB)/P(A) = 0.15/0.25 = 0.6 not equal to P(B)

Hence A and B are not independent.

What is the effect on the volume of a sphere if the radius is divided by 3?

Neko [114]

For this case we have by definition, that the volume of a sphere is given by:

$V = \frac {4} {3} \pi * r ^ 3$

Where:

r: It is the radius of the sphere

If the radius is divided by 3 we have:

$\frac {r} {3}:$

$V = \frac {4} {3} \pi * (\frac {r} {3}) ^ 3\\V = \frac {4} {3} \pi * \frac {r ^ 3} {27}\\V = \frac {4} {81} \pi * r ^ 3$

ANswer:

the volume decreases considerably because the denominator increases

Cathrine has £7000 to invest.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Since this is a compound interest problem, you have to take note that the amount Catherine will get per year is not the same. It will increase per year since it is compounded. So first, we get the amount after one year. This will be 7000 x 0.04 which is 280 plus 7280. In the second year, she will get 7571 (7280 x 0.04 + 7280). In the third year, she will get 7874 (7571 x 0.04 + 7571). In the fourth year, she will get 8189 (7874 x 0.04 + 7874). And finally in the fifth year, she will get 8517 (8189 x 0.04 +8189). So after five years, she has 8517
