Answer:

Yes, snow and cold weather are independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

C: Cold weather

S: Snow

P(C) = 0.50

P(S) =0.30

P(S\cap C) = 0.15

We have to check whether snow and cold whether are independent events.

If the events A and B are independent then,

p(A\cap B) = P(A)\times P(B)

Checking,

p(S\cap C) = P(S)\times P(C)\\0.15 = 0.30\times 0.50

Thus, the two events are independent.

For mutually exclusive events

P(A\cap B) = 0

Thus, the given events are not mutually exclusive.

An unknown number is not equal to 3.6 but rounds to 3.6 when rounded to the nearest tenth, what could be the number?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

3.55-3.59

Step-by-step explanation:

to round off to the nearest whole number, look at the first number after the decimal, if it is less than 5, add zero to the units term, If it is equal or greater than 5, add 1 to the units term.

So numbers that would be rounded off to 3.6 have to have an hundredth value equal or greater than 5

they include

3.55

3.56

3.57

3.58

3.59

Two less than the product of 8 and a number is 8
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

x=1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us replace the number with the variable "x". You will then get this equation:

8x-2=8

Move the -2 to 8 and you would get the equation:

8x=8+2

Simplify:

8x=10

Simplify:

x=10/8

You would then get the answer "x=1.25"

I hope this helps :)

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

x = \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 24x - 15 = - 27 ( add 15 to both sides )

- 24x = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 24 )

x = \frac{-12}{-24} = \frac{1}{2}
