Question:
A = {2, 3, 4, 5}
B = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
Two integers will be randomly selected from the sets above, one integer from set A and one integer from set B. What is the probability that the sum of the two integers will equal 9?
A. 0.15
B. 0.20
C. 0.25
D. 0.30
E. 0.33
Answer:
Option B: 0.20 is the probability of the sum of the two integers.
Explanation:
The sample space for selecting 2 numbers is given by
We need to determine the probability that the sum of two integers will be equal to 9.
Hence, we need to add the two integers from the sets A and B such that their sum will be equal to 9.
Hence, the sets are
Thus, the total number of sets whose sum is equal to 9 = 4
The probability that the sum of the two integers will equal 9 is given by
Thus, the probability that the sum of the two integers will equal 9 is 0.20
Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
Answer:
Therefore, we conclude that the equation x-2y=4 represents the equation of the line 'n' if lines m and n are parallel to each other.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the slope-intercept of line equation is
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
Given the equation of the line m
y = 1/2x - 4
comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation
y = mx + b
Therefore,
The slope of line 'm' will be = 1/2
We know that parallel lines have the 'same slopes, thus the slope of the line 'n' must be also the same i.e. 1/2
Checking the equation of the line 'n'
solving for y to writing the equation in the slope-intercept form and determining the slope
Add -x to both sides.
Divide both sides by -2
comparing ith the slope-intercept form of the line equation
Thus, the slope of the line 'n' will be: 1/2
Therefore, we conclude that the equation x-2y=4 represents the equation of the line 'n' if lines m and n are parallel to each other.
