Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the statement
If
, then E and F are mutually exclusive events.
If two events are mutually exclusive, they have no elements in common. Thus, P(E∩F)=0.
Therefore, the statement is always true as P(E∩F)=0
For mutually exclusive events:
.
Answer:
(a) 7 essays and 29 multiple questions
(b) Your friend is incorrect
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent multiple choice with M and essay with E.
So:
--- Number of questions
--- Points
Solving (a): Number of question of each type.
Make E the subject of formula in 

Substitute 36 - M for E in 


Collect Like Terms


Divide both sides by -4


Substitute 29 for M in 


Solving (b): Can the multiple questions worth 4 points each?
It is not possible.
See explanation.
If multiple question worth 4 points each, then
would be:

Where x represents the number of points for essay questions.
Substitute 7 for E and 29 for M.


Subtract 116 from both sides



Make x the subject

Since the essay question can not have worth negative points.
Then, it is impossible to have the multiple questions worth 4 points
<em>Your friend is incorrect.</em>
I'd suggest using "elimination by addition and subtraction" here, altho' there are other approaches (such as matrices, substitution, etc.).
Note that if you add the 3rd equation to the second, the x terms cancel out, and you are left with the system
- y + 3z = -2
y + z = -2
-----------------
4z = -4, so z = -1.
Next, multiply the 3rd equation by 2: You'll get -2x + 2y + 2z = -2.
Add this result to the first equation. The 2x terms will cancel, leaving you with the system
2y + 2z = -2
y + z = 4
This would be a good time to subst. -1 for z. We then get:
-2y - 2 = -2. Then y must be 0. y = 0.
Now subst. -1 for z and 0 for y in any of the original equations.
For example, x - (-1) + 3(0) = -2, so x + 1 = -2, or x = -3.
Then a tentative solution is (-3, -1, 0).
It's very important that you ensure that this satisfies all 3 of the originale quations.

Answer: 1 1/3 packs of treats
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/9 + 5/9 = 2 6/9, which can be simplified to 2 2/3.
We subtract 2 2/3 from 4, giving us 1 1/3
