The correct answer is b), the probability of B occurring given A has occurred.

Answer: The correct choice is B.

When you have a vertical line in a probability statement, it is referring to the fact that the second event has already happened.

Imagine, drawing marbles from a bag of blue and red marbles. You could write a probability statement in which you asked, "What is the probability of drawing a red marble given that you just drew a blue marble?" 

In this case, you would use a vertical line separating the two events.

Lin multiplies 7/8 times a number.the product is less than 7/8 . Which could be Lin’s number ?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Any number less than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number Lin multiplies by 7/8. So, we have:

(7/8)*x < 7/8

We need to find the possible values for x. Lets start by dividing both sides of our inequality by (7/8) in order to get x alone on the left side.

(7/8)*x / (7/8) < (7/8)/(7/8)

Reordering:

(7/8) / (7/8) * x < (7/8)/(7/8)

As any number divided by itself (except from 0) is equal to 1:

x < 1

So, the number that Lin multiplied by 7/8 MUST be less than 1. This is evident, as any positive number multiplied by a number less than 1 will decrease, doesn't matter if its a negative or positive number.

So, such number is less than 1. Any number less than 1 could be Lin's number.

Write an equation for a rational function with: vertical asymptotes at x = 2 and x = -5 x-intercepts (-1,0) and (1,0) horizontal
solong [7]

Given vertical asymptotes x = 2 and x = -5 .

Therefore Factors of denominator (x-2)(x+5).

x-intercepts (-1,0) and (1,0) .

Therefore factors of (x+1)(x-1).

So far we got rational function = \frac{(x+1)(x-1)}{(x-2)(x+5)}.

Now, we are given horizontal asymptote at y = 9.

Multiplying above express by 9 on the top, we get

f(x)=\frac{9(x+1)(x-1)}{(x-2)(x+5)}.

<h3>Therefore, required rational function is f(x)=\frac{9(x+1)(x-1)}{(x-2)(x+5)}.</h3>
