Answer:

x = 0, 51

Step-by-step explanation:

→First, you need to factor out the GCF (Greatest Common Factor), which is -0.03x, like so:

-0.03x (x - 51) = 0

→Remove the -0.03 by divide it by both sides:

x(x - 51) = 0

→Separate each, like so:

x = 0

x - 51 = 0

→Solve for x:

x - 51 = 0

x = 51

Your solutions are, 0 and 51.

It could be either, we need more info. How big are each? If it doesn't say, then it's a trick question. Throw Schrodinger's cat at it or something.

Line M is represented by the following equation: x − y = 8

PIT_PIT [208]

Let's plug in (18,10) into each answer choice until we find the one that has it as a solution.

A) 2x - y = 26
2(18) - 10 = 26
36 - 10 = 26
26 = 26

Your answer is A.

I'll just do the rest to show that you the they are incorrect.

B) x + y = 18
18 + 10 = 18
28 ≠ 18

C) 2x - 2y = 36
2(18) - 2(10) = 36
36 - 20 = 36
16 ≠ 36

D) x - y = -28
18 - 10 = -28
8 ≠ -28

Your answer is A) 2x - y = 26.

Return to the credit card scenario of Exercise 12 (Section 2.2), and let C be the event that the selected student has an America

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

A. P = 0.73

B. P(A∩B∩C') = 0.22

C. P(B/A) = 0.5

P(A/B) = 0.75

D. P(A∩B/C) = 0.4

E. P(A∪B/C) = 0.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the event that a student has a Visa card, B the event that a student has a MasterCard and C the event that a student has a American Express card. Additionally, let's call A' the event that a student hasn't a Visa card, B' the event that a student hasn't a MasterCard and C the event that a student hasn't a American Express card.

Then, with the given probabilities we can find the following probabilities:

P(A∩B∩C') = P(A∩B) - P(A∩B∩C) = 0.3 - 0.08 = 0.22

Where P(A∩B∩C') is the probability that a student has a Visa card and a Master Card but doesn't have a American Express, P(A∩B) is the probability that a student has a has a Visa card and a MasterCard and P(A∩B∩C) is the probability that a student has a Visa card, a MasterCard and a American Express card. At the same way, we can find:

P(A∩C∩B') = P(A∩C) - P(A∩B∩C) = 0.15 - 0.08 = 0.07

P(B∩C∩A') = P(B∩C) - P(A∩B∩C) = 0.1 - 0.08 = 0.02

P(A∩B'∩C') = P(A) - P(A∩B∩C') - P(A∩C∩B') - P(A∩B∩C)

= 0.6 - 0.22 - 0.07 - 0.08 = 0.23

P(B∩A'∩C') = P(B) - P(A∩B∩C') - P(B∩C∩A') - P(A∩B∩C)

= 0.4 - 0.22 - 0.02 - 0.08 = 0.08

P(C∩A'∩A') = P(C) - P(A∩C∩B') - P(B∩C∩A') - P(A∩B∩C)

= 0.2 - 0.07 - 0.02 - 0.08 = 0.03

A. the probability that the selected student has at least one of the three types of cards is calculated as:

P = P(A∩B∩C) + P(A∩B∩C') + P(A∩C∩B') + P(B∩C∩A') + P(A∩B'∩C') +

P(B∩A'∩C') + P(C∩A'∩A')

P = 0.08 + 0.22 + 0.07 + 0.02 + 0.23 + 0.08 + 0.03 = 0.73

B. The probability that the selected student has both a Visa card and a MasterCard but not an American Express card can be written as P(A∩B∩C') and it is equal to 0.22

C. P(B/A) is the probability that a student has a MasterCard given that he has a Visa Card. it is calculated as:

P(B/A) = P(A∩B)/P(A)

So, replacing values, we get:

P(B/A) = 0.3/0.6 = 0.5

At the same way, P(A/B) is the probability that a student has a Visa Card given that he has a MasterCard. it is calculated as:

P(A/B) = P(A∩B)/P(B) = 0.3/0.4 = 0.75

D. If a selected student has an American Express card, the probability that she or he also has both a Visa card and a MasterCard is written as P(A∩B/C), so it is calculated as:

P(A∩B/C) = P(A∩B∩C)/P(C) = 0.08/0.2 = 0.4

E. If a the selected student has an American Express card, the probability that she or he has at least one of the other two types of cards is written as P(A∪B/C) and it is calculated as:

P(A∪B/C) = P(A∪B∩C)/P(C)

Where P(A∪B∩C) = P(A∩B∩C)+P(B∩C∩A')+P(A∩C∩B')

So, P(A∪B∩C) = 0.08 + 0.07 + 0.02 = 0.17

Finally, P(A∪B/C) is:

P(A∪B/C) = 0.17/0.2 =0.85
