1 answer:

4 0

A fraction that is less than 5/6 with a denominator of 8 is 1/8. The easiest way to see this is the decimal value of both fractions. 5/6 is equal to approximately .833 while 1/8 is equal to .125.

(Anderson, 1.14) Assume that P(A) = 0.4 and P(B) = 0.7. Making no further assumptions on A and B, show that P(A ∩ B) satisfies 0

Goshia [24]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

P(A)=0.4 and P(B)=0.7

We know that

$P(A)+P(B)+P(A\cap B)=P(A\cup B)$

We know that

Maximum value of $P(A\cup B)$ =1 and minimum value of $P(A\cup B)$ =0

$0\leq P(A\cup B )\leq 1$

$0\leq P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\leq 1$

$0\leq 0.4+0.7-P(A\cap B)\leq 1$

$0\leq 1.1-P(A\cap B)\leq 1$

$0\leq 1.1-P(A\cap B)$

$P(A\cap B)\leq 1.1$

It is not possible that $P(A\cap B)$ is equal to 1.1

$1.1-P(A\cap B)\leq 1$

$-P(A\cap B)\leq 1-1.1=-0.1$

Multiply by (-1) on both sides

$P(A\cap B)\geq 0.1$

Again, $P(A\cup B)\geq P(B)$

$0.4+0.7-P(A\cap B)\geq 0.7$

$1.1-P(A\cap B)\geq 0.7$

$-P(A\cap B)\geq -1.1+0.7=-0.4$

Multiply by (-1) on both sides

$P(A\cap B)\leq 0.4$

Hence, $0.1\leq P(A\cap B)\leq 0.4$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get x to one side.

subtract 6x to both sides

-8 = -2x

Then divide -2 to both side

Find the value of the variable and BC, if B is between A and C.<br> AB = 5x, BC = 3x-1, AC = 47

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

Since we know what each variable equals, we can write out the equation as shown:

47 = 5x + 3x - 1

Combining like terms:

47 = 8x - 1

Add 1 on both sides:

48 = 8x

Divide 8 on both sides:

X = 6

Now that we know what X equals, we can solve BC.

BC = 3(6) - 1

BC = 18 - 1

BC = 17

Therefore BC = 17.

You spent 1/2 of your money at the theater and 1/4 at an arcade. you have $17.50 left. How much money did you originally have?

4vir4ik [10]

You basically add 17.50+17.50=35 and add 35+35=70, reason being is because the 35 is the 1/2 and 17.50 is the 1/4 so 70 is your answer
