Interior angles of pentagon equals 540°. So if we add up all the angles, the result should be 540°. The upper angles are right angle so each of them is 90°

Put the numbers
∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 + ∠4 + ∠5 = 540°
x + 150° + 150° + 90° + 90° = 540°
x + 480° = 540°
x = 540° - 480°
x = 60°

The answer is option b

Assume that we have two events, A and B, that are mutually exclusive. Assume further that we know P(A) = 0.3 and P(B) = 0.7. If

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

What is P(A B)?

If A and B are mutually exclusive, then

P(AB) = P(A∩B) = P(∅) = 0

What is P(A | B)?

By definition

P(A | B) = P(A∩B)/P(B).

Since

P(A∩B) = 0, then P(A | B) = 0

Is P(A | B) equal to P(A)?

No, because P(A | B) = 0 and P(A) = 0.3

Are events A and B dependent or independent?

A and B would be independent if

P(A | B) = P(A) and P(B | A) = P(B)

But both P(A |B) and P(B | A) equals 0 and P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.7

Hence, A and B are dependent.

A student in statistics argues that the concepts of mutually exclusive events and independent events are really the same, and that if events are mutually exclusive they must be independent. Is this statement accurate?

No, it is not.

As we already saw, A and B are mutually exclusive but they are not independent.

What general conclusion would you make about mutually exclusive and independent events given the results of this problem?

If A and B are not empty events which are mutually exclusive, they can never be independent.

The average weight of a chicken egg is 2.25 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.2 ounces. You take a random sample of a dozen

n200080 [17]

Answer:

$P(\bar X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Let X the random variable that represent interest on this case, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(\mu,\sigma)$
