The sum of 4 consecutive integers is 40 what is the third number in this sequence?

1 answer:

3 0

Let's represent the numbers by : x, x+1, x+2, x+3
x+x+1+x+2+x+3=40 The third number in the sequence is x+2
4x+6=40 8.5+2=10.5
4x+6-6=40-6 Therefore the third number in the sequence is
4x=34 10.5
4x/4=34/4
x=8.5

If p(a|b) = 0.35, p(b) = 0.75 and p(a) = 0.44 are the events a and b independent ?

MatroZZZ [7]

Hello :
note 1 :
p(A|B) = p(A∩B)/ p(B)

note 2 :
 A and B independent: p(A∩B) = p(A)×p(B)
calculate : p(A∩B)
p(A∩B) = p(A|B)×p(B)
p(A∩B) = 0.35 ×0.75 = 0.2625
but : p(A)×p(B) = 0.44×0.75 = 0.33
conclusion :
the events A and B are not independent ?
